GENERAL INFORMATION TO CUSTOMERS 
HOW TO ORDER. Write your full name and address as plainly 
as possible so as to avoid mistakes, and give full shipping direc- 
tions, stating whether wanted by Parcel Post, Express or Freight, 
giving the name of the Railway Company or Express Company. 
This often saves delay. 
WE DELIVER all Flower and Vegetable Seeds either by Parcel 
Post or Express without extra charge at the prices given in

mailed with the soil removed from the roots. It is better, how- 
ever, to have the soil left on the roots, especially’ the larger 
ones, and we advise shipping by express when possible. 
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. 
NO CHARGE is made for packing seeds except for 2 bushel 
seamless bags at. 35 cents each, and all goods are delivered free 
of charge to freight depots and express offices in Milwaukee. 
WE GUARANTEE our Seeds to be thoroughly tested and such 
as will produce good crops under favorable conditions. That all 
Seeds will be delivered in good condition to our customers, by 
freight, express or parcel post. 
Fertilizers, ete. 
Small plants are 
NON-WARRANTY. Failures with seeds are mostly due to 
causes entirely beyond our control, such as too deep or too shal- 
low planting, unfavorable weather or soil conditions, etc., and 
while we warrant all our Seeds to grow and produce good crops 
under proper conditions, and great care is taken in filling 
orders, we give no warranty, express or implied, as to the de- 
seription, quality, productiveness or any other matter of Seeds, 
Bulbs, ete., we sell, nor will we be responsible for the crops. 
The purchaser must, therefore, accept goods ordered from us on 
these terms, or no sale is made,
