 Some seeds we deliver free in the United States, but on other seeds and goods

CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTICE 



IF GOODS ARE WANTED BY PARCEL POST, POSTAGE MUST 



BE ADDED AS PER TABLE BELOW, EXCEPT FOR THOSE 



WE OFFER TO DELIVER FREE AS ABOVE. 



REGARDING DOMESTIC PARCEL POST within the United States and 

 Posessions — which now includes Seeds, Plants. Bulbs and Roots. 



For all merchandise mailable by Parcel Post offered in this catalogue — tools, 

 and accessories, odorless fertilizers, insecticides and fungicides (fluids and 

 poisons excluded) — we have given the packed Parcel Post weight so that extra 

 for postage must be remitted according to Zone distances as below: 



WEIGHT LIMIT— The weight limit within the 1st and 2nd Zones is now 



fifty (50) pounds, within the other Zones the weight limit is twenty (20) pounds 

 and the size limit eighty-four inches (34) for combined length and largest girth. 

 In this catalogue we give the weights packed up to ten pounds. In most 

 instances the charge by freight and express on greater weights will be found 

 more economical, hence we confine our estimates to the ten pound scale.
