Important Announcement to Customers! 
So as to avoid mistakes and delay we ask customers to use the addressed envelope enclosed with each Catalog, 
or in the event of its being lost to 
Write Our Full Address on the Envelope When Communicating With Us 
ORDER EARLY. When possible, all orders are filled as soon as received, but during the busy season in April and May, delays are 
sometimes unavoidable; we, therefore, advise ordering early. 
CORRESPONDENCE. We cheerfully answer all letters of inquiry promptly, and request that questions be written on a separate 
paper and not on order sheets. 
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 this 
Catalog, to any Postoffice or Station in the United States, except 
where otherwise stated. 
PURCHASERS PAY transportation on Tools, Fertilizers, etc. 
PLANTS BY EXPRESS are not delivered free. Small plants are 
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 seam- 
less bags at 25 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. 
NON-WARRANTY. Failures with seeds are mostly due to causes 
entirely beyond our control, such as too deep or too shallow plant- 
ing, unfavorable weather or soil conditions, ete., 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 description, quality, product- 
iveness or any other matter of Seeds, Bulbs, etce., 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.
