 fac-simile of which is here shown. 



When We Execute Orders. 



Every order is filled immediately on arrival, or is acknowledged if under 

 rare circumstances its shipment is likely to be delayed for a day or two. If 

 goods, notification of shipment or acknowledgment of order is not received by 

 the customer after a reasonable lapse of time, it mar be assumed that the 

 order has miscarried, or that the name or address was omitted from the order 

 We will, when notified of such a case, use our best efforts to trace it without 

 delay. 



Give full shipping instructions on each and every order vou send To 

 avoid chance of error, never write letters on the same sheet as your order. 



We fill orders of all values from the smallest to the largest, and all receive 

 the same careful and prompt attention. 



About Packing and Shipping. 



When goods are ordered from both seed and greenhouse establishments we 

 always combine, where practicable, the orders, and make one shipment. 



We make no charge for packing, cases, baskets, packages or barrels, and 



pack as lightly as possible, consistent with safety, so as to reduce the cost of 

 carriage when paid by purchaser. In fact, we assume extra expense in supply- 

 ing light, strong cases, and, where possible, we pack in baskets covered with 

 waterproof covers, which greatly reduces weight'. 



Cloth Bags only we charge for and these at cost, viz.: 1 peck 10c* % 

 bushel, 12c; 1 bushel, 15c; 2 bushels, 20c. All grass seed bags excepting 

 bags for Timothy and Clover, are furnished free. 



Special packing of seeds for foreign shipments when necessary, in tin-lined 

 cases or double sacks, we charge for at cost. 



We make no charge for cartage or delivery of goods to any railroad 

 station, steamship line or express office in New York City. 



The safe arrival is guaranteed of all goods sent by express to any part of 

 United States or Canada. We ship plants at all seasons of the year, even in 



the! 



the coldest weather. 



When shipped by freight we deliver all bulbs and roots properly packed 

 and in good condition into the hands of transportation companies. After that 

 our responsibility ceases. Consignee then assumes all risks of heating, freezing 

 and delays. 



SPECIAL IN REGARD TO THE SALE AND SHIPHENT OF PLANTS. 



All plants sent by express, unless specially ordered otherwise, buyer 

 paying charges. 



Plants will be sent by freight if requested, but at purchaser's risk Plants 

 will be sent by mail if so ordered, and it is practicable to do so, but only at an 

 advance of twenty-five per cent, on the prices quoted. 



The plants are offered in this list at the rates per 100 provided (except 



that not less than five of each class or 



where they are otherwise offered ) 

 variety are taken. 



The varieties must be our own selection of sorts unless otherwise 

 offered. Any one wanting special kinds, not offered in this wholesale list can 

 order from our retail Descriptive Catalogue (The Manual of Everything for the 

 Garden) at the prices quoted therein, from which we allow a discount of 

 one-third. 



We have secured for our custom- 

 ers from Express Companies 



80 Per Gent. Reduction 



in Express Rates on Plants. 



Under the new ruling of the leading Express Companies advocated and 

 secured by us, plants packed in closed or crated boxes will now be carried 

 at the "General Specials" rate. This rate means a reduction of 20 per 

 cent, from the regular merchandise rates to all points where no "General 

 Specials" exists. To points where a "General Specials" rate is in force the 

 companies make a special reduction. Shipments weighing less than 100 

 lbs. receive the benefit of the rate per 100 lbs. but the minimum charge is 

 35c. For instance, where the regular merchandise rate is S4.00 per^lOO 

 lbs., a box of plants packed closed, weighing 100 lbs., willbe carried for 

 .$3.20, a saving of SOc. on one shipment. 



Have your plants 



SENT BY EXPRESS. 



They will reach you quicker and 



in better condition than 



by any other way,
