put the box in a place where the temperature is above 
freezing—a cellar or a frost-procf building, and do not 
disturb for 5 to 7 days, at which time stock can be re- 
moved from the box in first-class condition. Under no

sometimes in our rush seasons we cannot get the orders 
shipped on the exact time, and-must ask our customer’s

left to us we can assure our customers of receiving 
stock in perfect condition and in proper planting season.
