Shipments from St. Louis, Mo.,

ONE DAY’S NOTICE

E have for the past thirty-one years offered in assorted lots in St. Louis
in Spring such stock as we had in surplus. Herein is a schedule of
what we now have in St. Louis for immediate shipment. The stock is

exclusively of our own growing at Huntsville, Alabama, fresh dug this Spring,
packed in the best manner and warranted in fine condition. Every thing is fine
of the grade. with full fibrous roots, and not culled, as we adhere to a strict
system of grading.

BELOW THE BLIZZARD LINE

Everything is bright, green and fresh—sound to the tips. Nearly all the
sorts offered are standard sorts, such as most nurserymen can use in assortment

_with their own growing. Orders should be sent in as soon as possible, but the

stock need not be shipped until wanted, as we are prepared to hold it in good
condition. We have nothing for sale not offered in this list.

It will be noticed by some of our correspondents that we have refused orders
the past season for several articles listed. Our fear of overselling and some
countermands are responsible for this. We ask attention to the small-sized trees
offered for transplanting into nursery rows. All of the small trees, as well as
the large ones, are nicely rooted, and everything is young, smooth and bright.

We can refer to nurserymen who have bought of us in every State and
Territory. We can give satisfaction, and guarantee it for these shipments.

TERMS: Cash with order, or 30 to 60 days from date of shipment to
responsible, prompt-paying parties. In box lots the price of boxes is included,
but the price of boxes on orders from the nurseries is extra. :

For convenience in telegraphing a cipher is given. The cipher word stands

for one box only in cases where there are more than one in the same assortment.

should there be no frost in the boxes when received, the trees should be removed.
from the boxes immediately upon arrival. We practice in this respect what the
experience of many years has taught us. If our customers will follow these © Pye

Special Mention.
PEACHES.

THE MAYFLOWER— Introduced by Mr. J. Van Lindley. Pomona, N. C. The
earliest of all peaches. Ripens here May 19th to June 5th, depending upon the
season. Mr. Lindley has tested this variety in his orchard for the past four years.
It is remarkable peach and red all over. Will supersede Victor and Sneed.

ARP BEAUTY is next in season and next in value to Mayflower. Comes in
just before and laps over into the season of Greensboro. It is quite distinct from
any variety that we know and will prove a very valuable sort for commercial
orchards as well as for family orchards. It is the most showy and by far the
best in quality of any peach of its season. The flesh is of a rich, inviting yellow
color; the skin a pleasing shade of yellow, very attractively painted and mottled
with bright crimson. It is very prolific, has large fowers and is one of the
hardiest in tree, bnd and bloom. Freestone, but the flesh, like that of all excep-
tionally early freestone peaches, clings more or less to the seed. In size it is
about the same as Yellow St. John.

APEX—Ripens at the same time as Alexander, to which it is far superior
in size, color and flavor. Size large, color of skin yellow, with a mottled red
cheek. Flesh yellow and of good quality—one of the best early market varieties.
Freestone, but, like all extra early peaches, the flesh clings to the stone.

DR. BURTON—Very similar to Mamie Ross in vigor, certainty and abundance
of bearing: has large flowers. Much superior to Mamie Ross and ripens about
one week earlier. It is a perfect freestone, of rather larger size than Mamie Ross,
of same shape, with smaller seed, much firmer and more color, and quality of the
finest; the best and handsomest peach of its season.

GOLDFINCH (Ea. Elberta)—This is a seedling of Elberta, of very much the
same characteristics, but ripening about a week earlier.

MUNSON’S CLING. Avselected seedling of Elberta, among hundreds grown
from select seed. Equally as large as Elberta, more spherical, with a short beak.
Firm, yellow flesh of the finest quality. Surface mostly covered with bright red,
very handsome. An immensely superior quality to Chilow. Ripens with Elberta.
