If You Are a Market Gardener raising garden truck for 
Sale and your annual purchases of bulk vegetable seeds 
amount to considerable, you are entitled to Market Garden- 
ers’ prices which we will gladly quote you on request. Our 
seed stocks are especially adapted to the market gardener’s 
use, as they are grown under the most careful supervision 
from specially selected, pedigreed strains and are rigorously 
tested for vitality. Their extremely high quality makes 
profits certain. 
We warrant Our Seeds to possess strong vitality, but 
owing to the many conditions under which failures may oc- 
cur we cannot and do not guarantee crops. In conformity 
with action taken many years ago by the American Seed 
Trade Association, of which we are members, our goods are 
sold under and subject to the following non-warranty clauses 
Currie Bros. Co. give no warranty, express or implied, as to 
description, quality, productiveness, or any other matter of 
any seeds, bulbs or plants we send out, and we will not be 
in any way responsible for the crop.

kee reference with their orders. We decline to ship C. 0 D.

of the goods ordered is sent to guarantee acceptance. 
How to Order Seeds, Etce.—Purchasers will greatly oblige 
us by writing out their orders on the sheets we enclose for 
that purpose with each Catalogue. Try to group your items 
so that the various classes of seeds (vegetable, flower, farm, 
etc.) will be listed together, plants will be together, bulbs 
together, etc. These things greatly facilitate our work dur- 
ing the rush period, and make quicker shipment possible. 
It is most important that the full name and naddrens be 
given, and plainly written. Often we receive orders with 
neither name nor address attached, and delays which we are 
powerless to avoid occur in consequence. Full shipping de 
rections should be given us, Stating distinctly whether large 
quantities are to be sent by express or freight, otherwise we 
must use our own judgment regarding the best route. Give 
name of Express Company or Railroad running to your place 
or Stage Route. 
Errors in filling orders, in spite of every precaution, will 
sometimes creep in. As we will always gladly rectify such 
errors, however, if they are brought to our attention in time, 
customers should notify us promptly upon arrival of goods 
of any mistakes that may be found. Keep a copy of your 
order, so that suck mistakes may the more readily be lo- 
cated, or that it may be repeated correctly in case the orig- 
inal fails to reach us.

hear from our customers regarding results and receive {in 
this way many unsolicited testimonials, which are much ap-
