Safe Arrival Guaranteed 
Call for shipment upon arrival and care for it as directed 
on card we will mail you. Should damage occur by delay, 
which rarely happens, we will refund or duplicate it if you 
report at once. If by freight, express or truck, we must have 
receipt for charges, with agent's notation of damage, so we 
can enter claim against them when damage was caused by 
delay. 
Price, Size and Quality 
You buy trees and shrubs, not for a few months’ use, but 
to grow into beauty. The best are no more trouble to grow, 
often not as much, and give you better results. Quality can- 
not be shown in a catalog. For that you have to depend 
upon the reputation of your nurseryman. That reputation, 
after all, is more guarantee than anything he can say. Since 
1875 this nursery has supplied quality fruits, trees and flowers 
at reasonable prices. 
When we can we tell you the size. Yet every nursery- 
man knows some growers’ 3 to 4 ft. shrubs, for example, 
may be larger and better branched than anothers. In some 
cases, for example perennials, the size can hardly be de- 
scribed. Again you must depend upon the reputation of your 
nurseryman. It is impossible for any nurseryman to furnish 
all stock equally rooted, equally branched, or even of equal 
size, because they don't grow that way. An Apple is better 
rooted than a Cherry, a Spirea better branched than a Su- 
mac, a Daisy larger than a Phlox. Some kinds of Roses are 
larger than others. 
We do promise you first class stock of its size and variety. 
A deep well and irrigation system enables us to water the 
plants when needed. A well equipped storage building with 
artificial refrigeration enables us to properly care for the 
stock after it is dug and while it is being prepared for ship- 
ment to you. You can depend upon well grown stock, lib- 
erally graded and properly packed. Plant it carefully, water 
it as needed, and we feel sure it will please you.
