Dear Friend: 
Money DOES grow on trees! 
Few, indeed, are the trees producing either fruit or nuts that do not more than pay for their 
small cost with the first one or two crops, then go on to produce ten, twenty, fifty or a hundred times 
the investment EACH year for many years. Some, especially the nut trees, serve at least two purposes 
when planted around the home, furnishing both shade and fruit. Other trees and shrubs pay dividends 
in the color and aroma of their blossoms and still others are grown for their beauty of form and foliage. 
Whatever your purpose in planting, we believe that in no other way can you purchase so much 
for so little money. 
We guarantee all our stock to be well grown, true to name, properly packed and to reach you 
in good condition. Since we have no control over many factors beyond that point, we cannot be respon- 
sible for the growth or fruitfulness of any plant after it has left our hands. 
Unless otherwise stated. We pay all transportation charges. 
If we are unable to fill your order, due to prior sales or for any other resason, we reserve the 
right to refund your money without further obligation. 
We appreciate your business and welcome any suggestion that will enable us to better serve you.
