GENERAL INFORMATION FOR CUSTOMERS: 
25) HIRTY-SIX years ago the founder of this business started selling seeds in a modest way, with a firm belief 
t in the principle of so conducting a business as to make a friend of every customer, by supplying the best of 
everything that science and experience can produce. This policy has been carried out successfully, and our 
business has developed into enviable proportions. To further this end our untiring efforts have been devoted 
to the selection and improvement of our stocks of seeds, and each variety grown under the most favorable 
conditions—at home and abroad—to reach the highest state of perfection. 
=; While it costs more to produce our High Grade Seeds than the ordinary quality generally sold, the prices 
act which we offer them will be found very reasonable when compared with others. The assurance of being supplied 
by us with strictly fresh, first-class Seeds must necessarily be of great value to the grower, bountiful crops of the 
finest vegetables or the loveliest flowers being practically assured. 
WE GUARANTEE our Seeds to be thoroughly tested and of the very best quality, such as will produce good 
crops under fayorable conditions. That all Seeds will be delivered in good condition to our customers, by freight, - 
express or mail. 
HOW TO ORDER. Write your full name and address as plainly as possible so as to avoid mistakes, and give 
full shipping direction, stating whether wanted by freight or express, giving the name of the railway company or 
express company. This often saves delay. 
SEEDS POSTPAID. We deliver all seeds either by mail or express without extra charge at the prices given in 
this Catalog, to any postoffice or station in the United States, except where otherwise stated. 
SEEDS IN BULK. 5 lbs. upwards will be shipped either by freight or express at the buyer’s expense. If wanted 
by parcels post at distances within 150 miles from Milwaukee, add 9 cents for postage on 5 lbs. and 1 cent for each 
additional pound; beyond 150 miles and within 300 miles add 14 cents for 5 lbs. and 2 cents for each additional 
pound; from 300 to 600 miles add 23 cents for 5 lbs. and 4 cents for each additional pound. 
SEEDS BY EXPRESS OR FREIGHT are furnished at 5c per lb. less than Catalog prices, except where otherwise 
noted. 
EXPRESS COMPANIES carry all Seeds, Bulbs and Plants at a Special Reduced Rate (about 20 per cent. less 
than the regular tariff) to any point in the United States. 
PREPAID STATIONS. Where there is no agent at the railroad station freight must be prepaid, and customers 
are requested to send enough money to cover the expense on bulk shipments, 
ALL IMPLEMENTS AND SUNDRIES will be shipped by freight or express at buyer’s expense, except where 
otherwise provided for. 
NO CHARGE is made for bags, boxes or barrels, except 2 bushel seamless bags at 20 cents each, and all goods
