2 THE WESTMINSTER NURSERIES 
CERTIFICATE: The Westminster Nursery is located 
in Japanese Beetle area making it necessary to treat 
some kinds of stock before allowed to ship into certi- 
fied zones with certificate. 
PACKING: Boxing or baling is charged at actual 
cost. When cash accompanies order, please allow suf- 
ficient extra to cover packing; otherwise, same will 
be billed to purchaser collect. The cost of packing is 
naturally greater on certain bulky items such as Privet, 
B & B Evergreens, etc. No packing charge is necessi- 
tated where stock is placed on cars or trucks in bulk. 
CLAIMS: All sales are made with the understanding 
that we shall not be liable in event of crop loss, or of 
damage from other causes over which we have no con- 
trol. We will gladly correct any errors, but we can- 
not entertain any claims that are not made within five 
days after receipt of the stock or are made after the 
stock has once been accepted. Claims should be made 
promptly in writing on receipt of stock. Plants become 
your property upon delivery to transportation company 
and we cannot be responsible for loss, damage, or delay 
in transit. All orders booked are based on the distinct 
understanding that the purchaser agrees to the condi- 
tion of sales as stated above. 
GUARANTEE OF GENUINENESS: We will send 
out healthy, thrifty stock, true to name. If any nur- 
sery stock proves untrue to description or variety name 
under which it is sold, we hold ourselves in readiness, 
on proper proof, to replace free of charge such stock 
that may prove untrue to description or name, or refund 
the original amount paid. We shall in no case be liable 
for any sum greater than the amount originally received 
for said stock. 
WAR PROVISIONS: Due to the war, all agreements 
and contracts are subject to priorities, covering ma- 
terial, transportation, and labor, and any other restric- 
tions that may hinder or prevent us from performing 
on such agreements. 
ORDERS are always individually filled with fresh 
dug stock. Our customers appreciate the fact that we 
do not ship them stock that has dried out in the storage 
ouse. 
We are located 28 miles northwest of Baltimore, Md. 
on Route 140 and 22 miles south of Gettysburg, Pa. We 
cordially invite you to visit our nurseries. 
Respectfully yours, 
THE WESTMINSTER NURSERIES,
