Business Terms and Conditions
Shipping Season. November to March. Citrus trees can, however, be shipped any time of year, but should go by express during hot weather. Orders sent in during shipping season will be forwarded as soon as possible unless otherwise in- structed. Orders booked in advance of season will be forwarded as soon as may be after opening of season, unless to be held for definite shipping date.
Method of Shipment. Unless definite instructions accompany orders, trees will be boxed or baled, as best meets requirements of order, and forwarded by freight or express, according to our judgment.
Prices shown in this catalogue are net for trees and plants carefully packed and delivered f. o. b. cars at Nursery, shipping point. Five, fifty and five hundred trees of one class, take ten, hundred and thousand rates, except on badly assorted orders or long lists of a few trees of many varieties.
Terms. Cash with order during shipping season. If order is placed in advance of season, a payment of 25 per cent of order to accompany it, balance before ship- ment, will generally be satisfactory.
Transportation at Purchaser’s Risk and Expense. Our responsibility ceases upon delivery in good order to forwarding companies. Claims for loss or dam- age in transit should be made upon latter. We will, however, start a tracer for de- layed shipments, if notified, and use every means at our command to secure prompt delivery, or recovery, in case of damage or loss. All freight and express charges at purchaser’s expense.
Minimum Orders. We prefer not to accept orders for less than $2.00.
Shipping by Mail. We reserve the right to turn down such orders, if we cannot conveniently handle them. In ordering trees sent by mail, add 15 per cent of amount of order for packing and postage. Only very small trees and plants can be sent in this way, hence we cannot guarantee trees or plants to come up to smallest regular size listed.
We Guarantee all stock sent out to be well grown, well rooted, true to name, properly packed and shipped according to instructions. Our liability under this guar- antee is limited in amount to the original price received.
Substitution. Unless instructed to the contrary, we substitute where varieties or sizes ordered are exhausted, as we find that our customers generally prefer that we use our judgment in such cases; but, in all cases varieties sent are properly labeled and invoices show the substitute as well as variety substituted for.
Complaints or Claims. We use every possible precaution to prevent errors, but when, by any possibility, they do creep in, we will deem it a favor if you will re- port at once. Claims should be made within ten days after receipt of goods.

Oranges
The Orange has, for many years, been the most prominent of subtropical fruits, largely so by reason of its being one of the most profitable.
The wonderful ability of the trees to withstand adverse conditions and still an- nually produce fruit; the extreme length of time that fruit can remain on the trees after maturity, making it possible to ship when markets are in best shape; and the fact that if properly packed the fruit will stand long distance shipment, makes the Orange one of the safest and most profitable fruits to grow.
In planting an orange grove it is poor business to try to get the cheapest trees possible. Cheap trees seldom prove healthy and fruitful. Orange nursery trees to prove vigorous and prolific should have large, well formed root systems and strong, clean, healthy tops one or two years old. Our trees are grown on loose sandy loam land, which permits the root systems to develop properly, and we give them every care and plenty of fertilizer, which makes strong, vigorous tops. We have no White Fly on our place, and our trees are free from other insects and diseases. In other words we guarantee them to be strictly first class and true to name.
We have not attempted to grow all the known varieties, many of which are of but inferior quality. In our list will be found the most prominent and profitable kinds, such as can always be safely planted in either large commercial orchards or for home use.
We can furnish trees on Sour Orange, Rough Lemon or Citrus trifoliata stocks.
Those on Sour Orange are suitable for planting in almost all orange growing sec- tions, preferring a fair to good quality of soil, and a moist but not wet location. Gen- erally preferred by planters and recommended by us unless some special local condi- tions make other stocks more desirable.
The Citrus trifoliata itself is entirely hardy in any of the Southern States, and oranges budded on it stand more cold than on other stocks. They should, however, be planted only on soils of good quality, preferably not loose sandy land. They re- quire considerable moisture. All varieties are early and heavy bearers on Trifoliata. Recommended for North Florida, Southern Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and Northern Mexico.

Pomelos (Grape Fruit)
Searcely second to the Orange in commercial importance is the Pomelo. In fact, for a number of years Grape Fruit has netted much larger returns, and from present 1n-
dications, this fruit will grow in popularity in the markets. To any one planting an orchard of Citrus trees, we should strongly recommend at least one-third to one- half of the trees to be Grape Fruit.
The varieties we list are mostly well-known as amongst the very best, while all of them are good reliable kinds.

Kumquats
A very unique little tree, producing miniature fruits resembling small oranges. Very ornamental in appearance, particu- larly when loaded with the golden yellow fruits, during fall and winter. The trees bear as soon as they have sufficient hard wood to produce fruit; not infrequently the first year in nursery rows. The fruit is edible, rind and all being eaten, but is used largely for table decoration and pre- serving and crystallizing. When shipped Kumquats packed for shipment—they generally bring
5 fancy prices to Northern markets properly(little bunches with leaves being packed in strawberry carrier crates), the fruit nearly always brings fancy prices, often as much as $6.00 to $10.00 per crate of 32 quarts. We have trees on Citrus trifoliata stocks, and can furnish both varieties: Marumi (round), fruit about an inch in diameter. Nagami (oblong), about an inch and a half long and an inch in diameter.

Peaches
For several years the demand for peach trees has been much heavier than the supply. This season we have a fine lot of trees, including nearly all of the best South- ern varieties; but the demand is still very heavy and it is advisable to place orders early to make sure of kinds and sizes wanted.
Explanation of list: The first column shows type to which the variety belongs— thus, ‘‘Sp.’? means native Spanish; ‘“Per.’? means Persian race; “N. C.,’’ Northern Chinese; “‘Hon.,’’ Honey; ‘“P-to,’’ Peen-to; “‘O B.,’’ Oriental Blood. The second col- umn gives the time of ripening, represented by initials: V. E., E., M., L., meaning very early, early, medium and late. The other columns represent different sections cf the country, as follows:
‘*A”’ representing South Florida and other tropical sections.
‘“B” representing Eastern North Florida.
‘“C’”? representing Western North Florida, Lower Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi-
‘"D”’ representing Coastwise Texas and Louisiana.
“EE” representing other peach- growing sections of the United States.
The starring in each column represents adaptability; that is, three stars (***) means that variety is well adapted to that section and is highly recommended; two stars (**) means adapted and recommended, but not so highly as when marked with three stars; one star (*) means that the variety does only fairly wellin that section; while no starring means variety is not recommended for that section.

Plums
The pure Japanese type of Plums does well in many sections of the United States and has been planted quite extensively commercially; but all along the Gulf Coast
country they are a little out of their range and do not always bear satisfactorily.
‘There
are, however, now several cross-bred varieties (Japanese and Southern Chickasaw types crossed) which bear well in all the Gulf Coast section and even in South Florida. Of these cross-bred varieties Excelsior, Terrell, Florida Queen, Howe and Miller are some
of the best. planting.
We can heartily recommend them for either home use or commercial

succeed admirably.
The three best varieties are LeConte, Kieffer and Garber.

Apples
Apples can be grown in Florida and all along the Gulf Coast country.
Of course
we don’t recommend planting large commercial orchards, but a few trees for home use
or even for a small local market, are all right.
The Jennings Florida Apple (originated
in Baker County, Fla.) has proven quite fruitful in many sections of the lower South,
and the other varieties we list also give fair results.
Let us send you a few trees— we
believe you will be agreeably surprised when they commence bearing.

Budded Pecans
Within the last few years Pecans have been attracting a great deal of attention on account of the enormous profits to be derived from groves of large thin-shelled varie-
ties.
The trees are easily transplanted, require comparatively little attention (although 20
Van Deman Pecans One of the best varieties, heavy bearers, large fine nuts
they respond readily to liberal treatment), and when they commence bearing— usually six to ten years from the time of planting—-they produce heavy annual crops, if proper kinds have been set. The nuts are easily gathered, and can be marketed any time within a year or so, when best prices can be obtained. The demand for the nuts,
especially of the larger, finer sorts, is rapidly increasing. Unlike most fruits, the Pecan is used the year round.
The trees are upright growers and form well-rounded, symmetrical tops, making them desirable for shade trees. In planting shade trees, why not plant some kind that
will not only prove excellent for this purpose, but will give a crop of nuts annually that will sell at a good profit?
In planting trees, care should be used to see that only first-class varieties are set; and these should be purchased only from the most responsible nurserymen. The best budded trees are cheapest and best in the end, for when you set a budded tree of known variety you can depend on getting first-class nuts when the tree commences
bearing, while if seedling trees are set there will be a great variety of nuts, some good, but many inferior.
We have an especially fine lot of budded trees of the most popular and valuable kinds, and all are guaranteed true to name.

As a general rule seedling pecans are rather; stronger and more rapid growers than budded or grafted trees, but do not bear quite assoon. While seedling trees. are apt to vary considerably from parent trees, if large fine nuts are planted a good portion of the seedlings generally produce good nuts.
For street or grounds planting for shade, the pecan is one of the most desirable trees, and we can furnish some fine large seedling trees, grown from selected nuts of large size and good quality at very reasonable prices on large lots. On regu- lar sizes we quote:

Walnuts
English Walnuts have not proven gen- erally satisfactory in the South, but it often happens that our customers want a few trees for trial or for filling out collec- tions, therefore we grow a few trees of one of the best varieties. Japan Walnuts have proven well adapted in the South. They are strikingly handsome trees and bear well, nuts of good size and fine quality, but which, on account of their thick shells, are not recommended for extensive commercial planting.

Roses
Among flowering plants, there are none more generally satisfactory than the Rose. They are adapted to nearly all soils, and suitable to various forms of planting; as shrubs about the grounds they are very ornamental; as borders for walks or driveways they form beautiful flowering hedges; massed together they can be formed into attractive figured plots; or set at edges of woodlands, they add color and make a striking fore- ground; or used as veranda vines the climbers form a mass of green with red, or yellow, or pink, or white, or combination of several, which is surprisingly beautiful. When planted in almost any way, they furnish an abundance of flowers almost the whole year if proper varieties are planted.
As some varieties are better adapted to some localities or for particular purposes, care should be used in making selection. If desired, we will be pleased to help our customers in selecting best varieties or will make a selection for them when requested. With our knowledge of the different kinds and their characteristics, this often proves the most satisfactory method.
Our Roses are mostly grafted upon Mad. Plantier and are strong field-grown plants, far superior for Southern planting to the small plants on their own roots as usually sent out by Northern growers.
Roses have been divided into different classes and the class often indicates to a certain extent the territory where those kinds. are adapted. Following the names of the different varieties in the descriptions will be found initial letters indicating these classes. The key to these initials is as follows: —

An Effective Landscape Planting
Showing Arborvitae and Palmetto to Advantage
Scarlet Maple. (Acer Rubrum.) An ex- ceptionally fine native deciduous tree of fairly rapid growth; attains large size. Its brilliant red samaras (flowers) are the first in the spring, and these are immediately followed by delicately traced, lobed foliage of brilliant scarlet color, which gives an otherwise rather drear landscape a striking touch of color. During the summer the foliage turns light green, but the young shoots are always tinged with scarlet, and in the late autumn the trees turn dark crimson. One of the finest ornamental shade trees for
Southern as well as Northern planting.
