J. MANNS & CO.'S SEEDS 



Are the Standard of Quality and the Key to the Success of Gardening. 





ABOUT WARRANTING. 



We thoroughly test all our seeds and nothing- is sent out 

 which we do not believe to be good in every respect. When it is 

 considered how many are the contingencies on which the suc- 

 cess of any crop depends, such as sowiug too deep or too shallow, 

 too wet or dry soil, unfavorable weather, insects, etc., our cus- 

 tomers will readily see that it would be sheer folly for anyone 

 to warrant them to pioduce a perfect crop, and we want it 

 plainly understood that while we exercise great care to have 

 all seeds pure and reliable, and also true to name, we do not 

 give any warranty, express or implied. If the purchaser does 

 not accept the seeds an these terms and conditions, they are to 

 be returned at once, and the money that has been paid for same 

 will be refunded. Howevei, we have so much confidence in 

 our seeds that we hereby agree to rehll any retail order for 

 vegetable or flower seeds free of charge should they prove 

 otherwise than as we represent them. We know of no respon- 

 sible seed firm in the world which guarantees seeds any further 

 than this. 





True to 

 Name. 



Low in 

 Price. 



High in 

 Vitality. 



Tested and 

 Proven. 







OUR TERMS ARE STRICTLY CASH WITH THE ORDER. 



We do not send C. O. D., as the cost of collecting return charges is quite an 

 unnecessary item of expense ; and the prices being given, we can conceive of no 

 necessity to warrant goods being so sent. 



We make no charge for boxes or cartage to depots, wharves or epxress ofl&ces. 

 Two-bushel seamless bags are charged at 20 cents each. 



POSTAGE FREE. 



Seeds by the packet, ounce or quarter-pound will be sent by mail at catalogue 

 prices. In quantities of half-pound and upward, postage must be added to cata- 

 logue prices at the rate of 8 cents per pound. For peas and beans, add 15 cents 

 per quart, and corn, 10 cents per quart to catalogue prices. 



HOW TO ORDER. 



Please be careful to sign your name, post-office, county and state, on each and 

 every letter sent us. Cash should accompany the order. Money can be sent safe- 

 ly either by post-office order, bank draft, express, or the cash by registered letter. 

 We accept i-cent and 2-cent postage stamps the same as cash. 



ORDER EARLY. 



It would be a great accommodation to us if more of our customers would order 

 their seeds before the rush of our busy season. If, however, you should postpone 

 ordering even until the seeds are actually needed, you may rely upon getting 

 them promptly.

 Gentlemen : 



I am pleased to send you a stalk of your Golden Self Blanching Celery which is a good average 

 of my crop. I am very proud of all the seeds I bought of you ; for such stock as that will recom- 

 mend itself. Yours truly,
