INFORMATION FOR OUR CUSTOMERS 
Planting Time 
SPRING SEASON: About April Ist until 
May 20th depending upon weather con- 
ditions. 
FaLusEAson: From the middle of Septem- 
ber until the ground freezes usually in 
late November. 
Orders can be placed at any time for 
future delivery. We recommend placing 
of orders well in advance of the shipping 
season. Many items are sold out when the 
shipping season opens. It is not necessary 
to send cash when orders are placed in 
advance. We will book the order and no- 
tify you so that remittance can be sent 
before goods are shipped. 
Our Guarantee 
We crow our Evergreens by the best 
known methods. We transplant and root 
prune the trees at proper intervals to de- 
velop a fibrous root system. Our trees are 
dug and handled by men of long expe- 
rience. Many conditions over which we 
have no control govern results which you 
may have with Evergreens, such as water- 
ing, planting site, proper planting, soil 
conditions, injury, or severe adverse wea- 
ther conditions. 
There is, therefore, no guarantee what- 
ever on the growth of the trees. 
Adjustments 
ANY ERRORS or omissions in the filling of 
orders will be satisfactorily adjusted if we 
are notified promptly upon receipt of ship- 
ment. In case of any error on our part, it 
is mutually agreed by the purchaser and 
ourselves that we shall not at any time be 
held responsible for a greater amount than 
the original price of the goods, and orders 
are accepted with this understanding. 
Prices 
IF NO PRICE LIST accompanies this catalog, 
we will gladly mail a current price list on 
request. 
Not all of the trees described in this 
catalog are available in every size each 
season, although it is our intention to 
grow all of the various items offered here. 
Prices are established during the sum- 
mer months, and apply to orders booked 
during the fall and the following spring. 
Prices, however, are subject to change at 
any time without notice. 
Delivery Charges 
THE PRICE quoted includes loading of 
trees on trucks, freight cars, or express 
cars, but does not include transportation 
charges. Freight, express, or parcel post 
charges are at customers’ expense. In the 
absence of definite shipping instructions, 
we will use our best judgment, shipping by 
whatever method is most practical in the 
interests of the customers. Small trees not 
balled and burlapped usually can be sent 
by express. Balled and burlapped trees 
can be shipped either by expressor freight. 
Arrangements may also be made to de- 
liver by truck at reasonable expense to 
nearby customers. 
Method of Grading 
WE conForM to the rules of the American 
Nurserymen Association in methods of 
grading Evergreens. For example, trees 
listed as 3 to 4 feet in upright growing 
varieties means that the trees will be more 
than 3 feet, and not more than 4 feet 
measured above the ground, not including 
the earth ball. Average size of trees in 
this grade would be 314 feet. In the grad- 
ing of creeping or spreading trees, sizes 
such as 11% to 2 feet indicate that the 
spread of branches will be between these 
figures. 
Landscape Service 
WE DO NOT maintain a landscape service 
and do not have any landscape architects 
in our employ. Neither do we have agents 
directly representing us. We do, however, 
sell the majority of our products to local 
nurserymen, landscape gardeners, florists, 
and dealers, with whom we have no con- 
nection whatever except as we sell the 
trees outright to them. 
We will gladly recommend someone in 
your locality, if known to us, or someone 
in a nearby town who handles our stock 
and who is in a position to serve you in 
your landscape needs.
