Location of Nurseries
Our Nurseries are located on the south shore of Lake Erie where the conditions
are such that we are enabled to grow good, thrifty, well rooted stock, which ripens
thoroughly and goes into winter storage in fine shape.
We have the benefit of a large variety of soils which enables us to grow the dif-
ferent kinds of trees, plants, shrubs, etc., on the soil which is best adapted to their
growth; thus producing good, healthy stock in the shortest time.
All trees and stock are carefully handled from digging time until shipping by ex-
perienced employees; all work being under our personal supervision.
All stock is carefully graded to the standard grades and stored in our frost proof
cellars until time of shipping.
Suggestions for Transplanting
Care of stock on arrival. Upon the arrival of a package, remove stock, wet down
with water, and heel in, in mellow soil, packing dirt firmly upon roots. If soil is dry
moisten well with water. Trees are then ready for planting and should be taken out
only as needed, being very careful not to expose the roots to sun or wind as stock so
exposed is not liable to grow. In small fruit plants, bunches should be opened and
roots spread out when heeled in.
Soil for planting should be well drained either naturally or artificially by means
of tile. Prune all bruised or broken roots with a sharp knife. Trim the trees up to
four or five branches suitable for forming a top; cut these banches back to within
four or five buds of the body.
Planting. Make holes large so as not to crowd the roots, use surface soil for
filling in and plant as firmly as possible, pressing soil well down with the feet. After
planting mulch may be applied if desired. Never put manure in the hole with the
roots.
Information regarding spraying will be cheerfully given upon application.

N FILLING orders from this list we reserve the right in case that we are out of
a variety, to substitute another of equal merit when it can be done (always la-
beling with the correct name) unless the party ordering says “no substituting,”
in which case we will fill the order so far as we can and return the balance Al-
ways give full and explicit shipping direction, as our responsibility ends on delivery of
trees in good condition at the freight office.
We shall be pleased to quote prices to any one desiring different sizes or stock
in larger quantities than offered herein. In sending list state definitely the number
of each size and variety wanted.
We guarantee all stock to be up to size and grade specified in list, to be in good
condition and carefully packed; this guarantee holds good only when prompt notifica-
tion on arrival of stock is sent us, stating plainly any errors or cause for complaint.
While we exercise the greatest dilligence and care to have all our trees, etc., true
to label, and hold ourselves in readiness, on proper proof, to replace all trees, etc.
that may prove untrue to label, free of charge, or refund the amount paid, it is mu-
tually understood and agreed to between the purchaser and ourselves, that our guar-
antee of genuineness shall in no case make us liable to any sum greater than that
originally received for said trees, etc., that prove untrue.
TERMS — Cash, unless otherwise agreed upon — 5 at 10 rates, 50 at 100 rates.
No charge for delivery at express office or railway station here.
