OUR INSTRUCTIONS TO PURCHASERS OF PLANTS 



Order Early. By placing the order early you are assured of get- 

 ting just what the order calls for. This is often not the case with late 

 orders. 



10% Gash Discoant. You also get a io% cash discount on 

 all orders accompanied by cash with order that reaches us on or before 

 March ist, 1927. 



How To Ship. Express is most satisfactory on all large orders 

 when the distance is far. Parcel Post is OK on all orders in the ist, 

 2nd and 3rd zones, and all small orders of a few hundred plants. See 

 Parcel Post rates under price list. 



Ho'w To Remit. Money Order, Registered Letter, or Check 

 Do not send loose currency. We will ship C.O.D. when one-third cash 

 accompanies the order. 



Time Of Shipment. We commence to ship plants October ist 

 and ship all winter to sections where the conditions are suitable for fall 

 and winter planting, and up to May ist. We will fill orders up to May 

 15th, but at purchaser's risk only after May ist. We also fill a limited 

 amount of orders during September at 50 per cent, above list prices 

 This to accommodate our customers only. 



25 Plants. All strawberry plants are tied twenty-five to a bundle 

 and labeled. We make no extra charge for packing. 



Troe-To-Name. We use every precaution to have all plants 

 true-to-name, but in case a mistake should occur, it is agreed that we 

 are not to be responsible for a greater sum than the cost of the stock 

 should any prove otherwise than labeled. We do not have one com- 

 plaint on this line in filling 100,000 orders. 



Claims. It your order is delayed an unusual time in transit, care- 

 fully examine plants before accepting same from the Transportation Co., 

 have a notation marked on your E.vpress bill showing damage due you. 

 Prompdy return this Receipt to us and we will refill the order and make 

 claim on the carrier. A notice is mailed every customer the day ship- 

 ment is made. Don't fail to call for plants promptly when notified. 



Last Bnt Not Least. Prepare your land where plants are to be 

 set as early as possible and have plants on hand ready to set when the 

 day comes. Ninety-nine out of a hundred early plantings will prove 

 successful if well planted and cultivated.
