A load of our plants at the Express Office here. Note the slatted crates. 
Plenty of air for crowns of plants. 
For forty six years we have been selling strawberry plants by catalogue 
only,filling orders with strictly fresh dug, true-to-name, high grade stock 
of our own growing. We can sometimes ship during January and February, 
depending on the severity of winter, but after March first we are able to dig 
and ship daily until May first. After May first we can ship out a limited 
number of orders at purchaser’s risk. 
We will always replace anything that may reach you in bad condition, 
providing the transportation company has given it proper dispatch. If it has 
been too long on the road refuse to receive it. We will then refill your order 
and get our pay from the Express Company. 
We would prefer Bank Draft or P. O. Money Order in payment of plants, 
for please remember that our terms are Cash with Order. We cannot under- 
take to do a credit business at the price at which our plants are sold. To 
serve you at the lowest cash price is, we believe very distinctly to your ad- 
vantage. We will book your order and hold the plants a reasonable time 
awaiting your remittance. 
All our plants are freshly dug, carefully cleaned, tied in bunches of 27 
(counted as 25), labeled with wood labels, neatly packed in slatted crates, 
none of which are more than 12 inches deep, and all of which are 12 inches 
wide. <A Certificate of Inspection accompanies each package. We have an 
absolutely clean bill of health. 
WE HAVE A MUCH LARGER QUANTITY OF PLANTS THIS YEAR 
THAN FOR THE PAST FOUR AND WILL BE ABLE TO HANDLE ALL 
ORDERS WITH FINE STOCKY PLANTS, AND AT THE SAME TIME 
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REDUCE PRICES. 
We appreciate your business. We will do our best to please you. We 
feel sure we can.
