THESE PRICES are in effect Fall 1952- Spring 1953. 
PRICES named in this Trade List apply only to orders 
placed by nurserymen, florists and dealers. Maryland cus- 
tomers are subject to 2% sales tax or send your License 
Number. All delivery costs are to be paid by purchaser. 
PACKING. All goods are packed in boxes and bales for 
which we charge sufficient to cover cost of material used. 
We will add this cost to your invoice. This cost applies 
whether you remit with order or buy on time terms. 
CLAIMS, if any, must be made immediately upon receipt 
of goods, and if just, made satisfactory, but in no case are 
we responsible for more than the purchase price of the stock 
in question. We will not be responsible for failure to fill 
orders in full or for any damage or delay to stock after 
delivery to the transportation company. 
TERMS. We offer the usual terms: net 30 days from date 
of shipment to those of known responsibility but must have 
satisfactory business references from others or remittance 
must accompany order. Those desiring stock shipped C.O.D. 
will please remit one-fourth the amount of their purchase 
when ordering. Other terms by special arrangement. 
NON-WARRANTY. We give no warranty, expressed or im- 
plied, the purchaser assuming all risk and responsibility of 
transportation, growth, planting, life of stock or any other 
matter on any stock we sell. We send out good stock, care- 
fully grown and packed but cannot control conditions after 
it leaves our care. We exercise the greatest care to keep our 
stock true to name and are willing to replace on proper proof 
any stock that may prove otherwise, or refund the amount 
paid us for such stock, but it is mutually agreed that we 
shall not at any time be liable for any greater amount. 
TELL US HOW TO SHIP, whether by express, motor 
truck or railroad freight. If by motor truck or railroad 
freight, tell us the route or over which line you want deliv- 
ery made. If you do not give this information we will use 
our own judgment as to route and methods to use. It is 
mutually agreed that whether you name the route or leave 
it to our own selection, we will not in any way be responsible 
for time or condition of delivery and our responsibility 
ceases upon our delivery to the transportation company. 
HARDINESS OF PLANTS. When hardiness of plants is 
mentioned herein it applies only to this section. 
TIME OF SHIPMENT. We ship most every week in the 
year with the possible exception of during the winter when 
bad weather makes it impossible, although this is very 
seldom. Of course, there is a regular season for shipping 
the different plants, but if you want them out of season and 
are willing to take the risk of good delivery, we will pack 
with the utmost care and get them off to you at most any 
time you want them. 
Plan to Visct Our Nursery 
We will certainly be glad to have you come to see 
our stock for yourself. We believe you will find it 
compares favorably with that grown by other nur- 
series. Some of our customers have told us it is better 
than is furnished by some others. We are on the 
Eastern Shore of Maryland, 100 miles south of Wil- 
mington, Delaware, 100 miles from Kiptopeke- 
Norfolk, Va., ferry, 90 miles from Annapolis, Md., 
via Chesapeake Bay Bridge, 150 miles from Balti- 
more, Md., via Elkton, Md., 225 miles from New 
York, N. Y. We hope you can come to see our stock. 
It is good driving on the famous Eastern Shore.
