Special Mention.

ROSES. We are making a specialty of growing Hardy Hybrid Perpetuals and Mosses by budding for outdoor planting. Budded roses transplant with better success than roses on their own roots and produce finer blossoms. The stocks upon which we bud are all disbudded before planting, so that little trouble is experienced from suckers. It will be noticed that our assortment given on page six covers all shades of color from white to the darkest crimson. We have discontinued growing roses at Biloxi, Miss., as we find we can produce a much~ healthier, handsomer plant at Huntsville. Our present crop is grown at Hunts- ville, and we guarantee as fine plants, both roots and tops, as can be produced anywhere in the United States. Samples will be sent upon application.

FRAU KARL. DRUSCHKI (Snow Queen). We are growing this variety in large numbers. “It is the best white Hybrid Perpetual ever introduced. We have had it at Huntsville blooming in the open ground for the past three years. It is marvelous in its beauty in half open bud and in the pure white of the full opened bloom. It is more prolific and more constant in bloom than the Paul Neyron. In a bed of a dozen plants there is seldom a day during the Summer when blooms eannot be cut, and during the Spring and Fall it blooms in profusion. It is the ideal rose for cemetery planting both North and South. It holds its foliage well and is healthy and vigorous and in hardiness it equals any of the Hybrid Perpetuals. Nurserymen should put this rose in the hands of their agents and draw upon us for filling their orders.

Prices will be based on delivery to station at Huntsville, the price of boxes to ‘be added. In car lots in bulk no charge will be made for packing.

PEACH TREES---One Year. On Peach. Leading Varieties.

Our peach trees are budded on seedlings grown from Manweasee and Alabama natural pits. They are free from Aphis, Root-knot and Crown-Gall. We can supply beautiful large. medium and small-sized trees. The land upon which our peach trees are grown produces a well-matured tree, with fine fibrous roots. The San Jose Scale, Yellows and Rosette are unknown in this section and we have been careful not to bring in any buds from affected localities.

THE HUNTSVILLE WHOLESALE NURSERIES PRICE LIST.

Terms and Conditions Governing Quotations im the Price

List of the Huntsville

RaATES.—As we send this list to the trade only, we make the difference in prices between the 10, 100 and 1000 rates very slight—simply sufficient, @S arule, to cover the difference in the expense of handling in the smaller numbers. We uni- formly tie in bunches of 10, when consistent with the order, and we suggest to our customers to make their orders for varieties in multiples of 10 as far as practicable. Orders for 50 and not over 300 trees, if for not less than 10 of a variety, will be charged at the rate per hundred. orders requiring 300 trees or more, and not less than 10 of a variety.will be fitled at the lowest quoted prices. Orders for less than 10 trees of one variety, will be charged at the rate per ten.

Smason.—Our packing and shipping season begins by the 20th of September, and continues until about the first of March..

We have great advantages to offer here in parly shipments for the North in Spring. We do not accept orders for trees we do not grow, as we never buy trees to sell again. You can de-

end upon us for fresh dug trees. Each order is taken up separately, and not until it is wanted for shipment.

SHIPPING DIRECTIONS.—We respectfully beg our patrons to furnish us with explicit direc- tions as to shipping, and the mode of conveyance by which they desire trees forwarded. Whenno particular directions are given, we forward according to the best of our judgment. Butin no case do we assume any responsibility as to safe delivery and condition of Trees and Plants after a proper shipment by us.

RELEASE.— When prepayment of freight is not required, we will Release and Guarantee, and take forwarder’s receipt and mail to consignee. It is left to the option of the shipper of trees ever some railroads, whether he will release them or not under the clause ‘‘Value less than SAE per 100 lbs.’’ If released under this clause, the freight is less on roads governed by this classification,and we will assume it to be proper to make this release, without reference to the value of the trees, unless instructed to the con- trary. This clause does not apply upon roads under some of the district elassifications, and because of this confusion we will not be held responsible for any oversight to release, unless instructed by our customers. Claims for delay or loss must be made to the forwarders. :

PAOKAGES.—The cost of package must be added to the prices quoted in this list,as follows:

Boxes 30 inches square, from 7% to 9 feet long, as the trees may require, each $2.50; boxes 24 inches, $2.00; boxes 18 inches, $1.50; bales from 25c. to 75c. each.

PacKkInG.—Goods will be packed in moss or “Shingle Tow,’ and especial care taken to insure their arrival in the best condition.

ASSOETMENTS.—We do not require customers to take an assortment they do not wish, but will sell one variety alone if desired. If any substi- tution can be allowed, either in grade or variety, it should be so stated when making the order. As a rule we do not substitute without per- mission.

CAUTION.—We accept all orders upon the con- dition that they shall be void, should any injury befall the trees from frost, hail, storm, fire, or other causes over which we have no control

TEEMSs.—Cash. When desired, we will allow 30 fo 60 days from date of shipment to responaibla.

Wholesale Nurseries.

prompt-paying customers. Parties with whom we have had no business transactions. will save time by sénding reference, with order. We wish it expressly understood that payment is expected from the first collections made. and the time named is only intended as so inany days of grace in which to make returns. To northern customers, who wish to lay in stock for Spring trade, we will ship late in Fall or early in Spring, and allow time fcr payment till May 15th. If shipment is required in the Fall for Spring use, a note is to be given upon receipt of the trees. We do not allow any discount for cash, but we make our prices low to command cash, or prompt returns. In orders when the time is not mentioned, 30 days is to be understood. Interest at the rate of 8 per cent per annum must be paid on over due accounts. Should prices be changed, either higher or lower, during the season, the prices ruling at the fim the order is made, are expected to stand.

ForMS OF PAYMENT.—AIll bills are payable at the office of the seller, and remittances should be made by drafts on New York, Chicago or St. Louis, or by.-money orders on some Express Company, or by postal orders. We will, how- ever, accept checks from those of our customers who may be located at places having no bank- ing, express or postal facilities, provided they make them in every case payable ‘‘with ez- change’’, or add &% of onecent. to the amount of the bill for the cost of collection.

GRADES.—We grade very carefully, in some cases by caliper, in others by height. When graded by both caliper and height. the caliper must govern, as the height then named is only to be considered approximately. When graded by height or caliper, we include the lower num- ber and exclude the higher. Instance: in a grade of 4 to 5 feet trees, the 4 feet trees are in- cluded, but not the 5 feet trees. If 5 feet trees are wanted, the5 to 6 feet grade must be ordered.

GUARANTEE OF GENUINENESS.— While we ex- ercise the greatest diligence and care to have all our Trees, etc., true to label, and hold ourselves in readiness, on proper proof, to replace all trees, ete., that may prove untrue to label, free of charge, or refund the amount paid, it is mutu- ally understood and agreed to, between the pur- chaser and ourselves, that our guarantee of gen- uineness shall in no case make us liable for any sum greater than that originally received for said trees, etc., that shall prove untrue.

ACCEPTANCE.—Notice should be sent us by tel- egraph, at our expense, if there is any cause of complaint,or should the trees be refused, stating reasons. Claims for deduction, from whatever cause,will rr :eive consideration only when made premptly upon the receipt of the trees. If trees show any signs of shrivelling upon arrival, they can usually be restored by being thoroughly watered and buried entirely under the ground for two or three days. Should there be any frost in the trees upon arrival, they should not be removed from the box until the frost is all out. The box should be placed in the cellar or pro- tected in some other way. The presence of frost in the boxes is not to be considered an evidence of bad condition. 28 we pack to secure the trees against damage, if the frest is allowed to come out in the natural way. Goods will be considered accepted if removed from the boxes in which they are packed, w.5b- out notice of complaint tous and without om ardere for their disposition. |
