PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU ORDER 
In preparing this catalogue, it is our desire and aim to 
make the descriptions and time of ripening, etc., as ac- 
curate and intelligible as possible, and, in so doing, lend 
assistance to those desiring to make a selection, so as to 
obtain varieties suited to their locality, and also that a 
succession of ripening from the earliest to the latest may 
be obtained. 
SUBSTITUTION.—When particular. varieties are or- 
dered, state if substitution is allowed and to what extent, 
in case the order cannot be filled as ordered, as sometimes 
is. the case in all nurseries. When no instructions are 
given, we will use our best judgment so as to render the 
best satisfaction to the customer. 
SHIPPING DIRECTIONS.—Give explicit directions for 
marking and shipping stock. In case no directions are 
given, we will ship the most direct route by express. In 
all cases, the shipment will be at the risk of the pur- 
chaser, and, if delay or lost occurs in transit, the for- 
warders alone must be held responsible. 
Orders may be accompanied with a check, draft, post- 
,office, or express money order for the amount. If neither 
can be obtained, enclose currency in registered letter with 
order, or if C. O. D. wanted, send 25 per cent cash with 
order and other will be sent C. O. D. and to°enable you to 
get-your order out early, send it in now. 
ERRORS.—Customers are requested to send notice at 
once of any error that may be made in filing their orders, 
so that it may be rectified and explained. 
ARTICLES BY MAIL.—Packages of small articles can 
be sent by mail, for the convenience of those who cannot 
be reached by railroad or express. 
THE SHIPPING SEASON.—There can be no definite 
time specified for beginning to ship, either in the spring 
or fall. That is regulated by the opening of the season— 
early or late—and by the ripening of the stock in the 
fall. It is therefore better that orders be sent in early 
so the stock can be shipped or delivered at the proper 
season in good condition. 
We replace all stock that die first year at half price, if 
customer has taken reasonable care of it. 
Further, it is mutually understood by purchaser that no 
salesman has the authority to change terms or replace- 
ment other than herein given, and for replacement on 
terms listed, the customer is to notify the Company at 
Higginson, Arkansas, by letter, giving such information 
as they may request from time to time, and that the re- 
placement cost is to be paid in advance of shipment, all 
replacements to be f. o. b. Nursery, Higginson, Arkansas, 
in season following agreement on goods to be replaced.
