Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue and Price List of the Elgin Nurseries, 1888 To go through the country and swindle the people by selling them new and fancy fruits and plants. With large sounding names that nobody ever heard of - such as Grapevine Raspberry, Tree Strawberry, blight-proof Pears. Apple grafted on boarer - proof stock, and nobody knows how many more unreasonable things. Remember: we are not in the business of supplying cheap trees to tree-peddlers and dealers, for them to sell as new and rare varieties, at the fancy prices these smooth-tongued gentry sell at. We devote our time and close attention to the growing of stock for the retail trade, selling direct to the consumer and reliable nurserymen. If in need of trees - and who does not stand in need of fine fruit and ornamental trees, as well as a shelter belt of evergreens around their buildings and stock yards to protect their stock from the cold winds of winter - write direct to the Nurseries. Do not allow agents of other establishments to mislead you with their ready tales that our N ur series have failed, or that we do not grow the fine varieties they offer. Etc etc. Do not waste your money, care and attention, use of land, and above all, years of time, any longer, but buy your trees from a responsible firm, of established reputation. Remember, we are not working for a day, but for the future, and we aim that an order from a new customer shall not be the last; that by selling the finest fruits and orna mental trees, and doing business upon honest and legitimate business principles, we have bui't up a large nursery trade, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast, and from Texas to Canada; and when we once send a bill of trees, we continue to send them year after year. Would we do this if we did not give satisfaction to our' consumers? And is it not reasonable that the Nurseries which have satisfied others for over thirty-three years ought to give you satisfaction?
