 should be made, we will use our own dis- 

 cretion; but we urge all customers to state 

 plainly whether they want goods mailed, 

 expressed or shipped by boat or by rail. 

 As all shipments by boat must be prepaid, 

 customers not known to us must remit 

 enough to cover freight. 



NON-WARRANTY. "Steckler" seeds and 

 nlants are most carefully selected aifd 

 handled to insure prime condition. How- 

 ever, in growing plants from seeds and in 

 setting out plants, so many contingencies 

 arise, dependent on weather and other con- 

 ditions over which we have no control, 

 that we cannot guarantee successful crops. 

 We will send out only seed and plants 

 which we believe will grow and produce 

 the kind of plants and varieties represent- 

 ed. But — 



THIS COMPANY GIVES NO WAR- 

 RANTY, expressed or implied, as to de- 

 scription, quality, productiveness or any 

 other matter of any seeds, bulbs, plants or 

 trees we send out, and we will not be in 

 any way responsible for the crop. If the 

 purchaser does not accept the goods on 

 these terms, they are to be returned at 

 once and the amount paid will be refunded. 



NO RESPONSIBLE SEEDSMAN CAN 

 GIVE ANY WARRANTY. 



AZ.Z. PRICES IN THIS CATALOGUE 

 ARE NET CASH AND SUBJECT TO 

 CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. 



We have discontinued the 5 cents 

 packag-es altogpether on flower and 

 veg-etable seeds, because the quantity 

 in a 5 cents package does not give 

 enoug-h seed to be of any benefit. 

 Prices on packet seeds, except where 

 noted, will be 10 cents per packet; 

 3 packets, 25c.; $1.00 per dozen, post- 

 paid.
