Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue: Fruit Plants, Fruit Trees, Ornamental Trees, Shrubs and Vines; Chapters on Care, Culture, Pruning, Spraying of Trees and Plants, of Vital Importance to Every Fruit Grower and Especially Valuable to the Beginner Our offices and packing grounds are second to none in the country. They are located adjoining the L. S. M. S. Depot, with which we are connected by our own side track, and two blocks west of the M. C. Depot, which makes our shipping facilities unsurpassed. On these grounds are located our immense storage cellars, which are the largest and finest in the United States. We were the originators of the storage cellar system and to-day we have the largest nursery storage cellar in the world. Great care is exercised in raising the many different varieties of trees and plants, and it has always been our rule to advise our customers to plant only varieties of merit, and it is our aim in this supplementary catalogue to place only such varieties before you. Dr. John A. Warder in his excellent work on apples, says: Every orchard planter who examines the extended varieties of fruits presented to him in the books and by the nurserymen, must feel greatly embarrassed when he comes to select the varieties for hi own orchard. Almost every one in the long lists is recommended for some good quality, and the number of best which he is apt to conclude is indispensable to him, is wonderfully large. Some persons are bewildered by the array presented in the catalogue, and fall back upon their own slender stock of information, selecting only one well known variety; but most persons commit a far greater fault by attempting to grasp all the varieties that are offered and commended. Our descriptive list herein given embraces many of the best and most of the popular varieties known, and although a complete list of those given might run into too great a variety for profit, yet a well-selected assortment taken from the varieties given should be a most profitable one for any planter. While we take the greatest pains to have all of our nursery stock true to label, and hold ourselves in readiness upon proper proof to replace all stock that may prove untrue, or refund the amount paid, it is mutually agreed between the purchaser and ourselves that we shall not be liable for any sum greater than that originally received for said stock direct from planter.
