ANDREWS 1948 PLANTING GUIDE 
FREE! 
These Valuable Gifts Free 
for Ordering Early 
Dear Friends: - 
Because of the necessity of gardening for greater food production during 
the war, many of us were reminded of how much pleasure there is in tend- 
ing a fruit or vegetable garden. Regardless of our occupation we are all de- 
pendent upon the soil and what it produces. Aside from the economic fac- 
tors involved, there are so many advantages to be gained from gardening 
that we sincerely hope the war-time victory gardener becomes a peace-time 
gardener. His efforts will result in not only a better diet and better quality 
food, but also in the rest and relaxation that comes from a complete change 
of endeavor. 
To such gardeners as well as to the commercial grower we offer our 1948 
Book of Selected Planting Stock as a guide to the newest introductions of 
the northern plant breeders. To be successful in the North it is important 
to plant varieties that have had complete winter hardiness bred into them. 
It is no longer necessary to sacrifice quality for hardiness as many new fruits 
are not only being heralded for their hardiness but also for their extremely 
high quality. 
In these pages you will find a list of these new and higher quality fruits 
with which your gardening will not only be successful, but a source of 
pleasure. 
Also presented in the 1948 book of selected planting stock is a carefully 
selected list of the best and most popular ornamentals such as Roses, hardy 
Mums, Gladiolus, and Perennials. 
We hope that we may have the opportunity of supplying you with your 
planting requirements this spring and in that way help you to make your 
home more fruitful and beautiful. 
Most cordially yours, 
ANDREWS NURSERY. 
To help you get the best results possible we 
include with each shipment a _ well-illustrated 
booklet of instructions for the planting and care 
of nursery stock. 
ANDREWS 
GUARANTEE 
We guarantee that all our nursery stock will 
reach the purchaser alive and in growing con- 
dition, and will replace, free of charge, any 
that does not, upon receiving your express or 
freight receipt with statement from the agent 
showing loss or damage. 
Any tree or plant that dies the first growing 
season, we will replace at a cost of one-half 
the regular catalog price, customer to make 
report and have his order for replacement in 
our hands before October 10th following date 
of purchase. 
We guarantee to all our customers stock 
that is true-to-name and absolutely as repre- 
sented. Any of our stock proven not to be, 
will be replaced free of charge or the purchase 
price refunded. It is mutually agreed by the 
purchaser and ourselves that we are not to 
be held liable for any damage other than here- 
in named. 

How Shipment of Your Order is Made 
You will notice that many items are 
marked “Prepaid” or “Postpaid.” On those 
items we pay the postage anywhere in the 
United States. There are some items, how- 
ever, such as fruit trees, shade trees and 
Evergreens that are too large to go by par- 
cel post. These items are sent by express 
and you pay the charges. Sometimes an 
order will include both prepaid and not 
prepaid items. In those cases, to avoid mak- 
ing two shipments, provided the stock can 
go together, we will send it express but will 
include in your order some selected items 
that will be equal to or greater in value 
than the amount of the postage required 
for the prepaid items. 
[5] 
This year while labor is still short we 
urge you to order early. This enables 
us to give you better service by having 
more time to get your order ready for 
shipment. 
If you will send us your order for 
nursery stock before March 15th you 
may select from the premium list below 
one premium for each $5.00 of your 
order. For example: If your order 
totals $5.00 you may select one pre- 
mium, if it totals $10.00 you may select 
two, and so on.

privilege of changing premiums to oth-
