I^e will send any one of the following 



COLLECTIONS 



Free by Mail for $1.00, 



OR BY EXPRESS (Buyer to pay Charges), 



On ihe Conditions named at the end of this List. 



Each collection (unless othenvise stated) contains all distinct varieties of the newest and choicest kinds of our selection. All are 

 labeled when sent by express, but are not labeled when sent by mail, although we send just as good and distinct sorts. If purchasers 

 will read carefullj- the conditions of sale named on the bottom of this page, they will readily see that our Express Club Eates on three or 

 more collections are so low that it does not pay to have plants sent by mail any more. Of course, in cases where there is no express office, 

 or to very extreme distances, plants have to be sent by mail, in which cases we pack by the most approved methods, to have them arrive 

 in good condition, but we would again reiterate that it is to every purchaser's interest to have plants sent by express when practicable.

No order is filled for less than one dollar, but we allow buyers 

 to halve collections if they desire it ; for example, we will send 4 

 Abutilons and 5 Ageratums for SI. 00, but no further divisions of 

 the collections will be made. Although it is a convenience to have 

 plants sent by mail to places where there is no express office, 

 yet in all cases where plants can be sent bj' express, we always 

 advise them so sent ; for not only are we enabled to sell much 

 cheaper, but larger plants can be sent, and they invariably arrive 

 in better condition. We therefore offer the above collections to be 

 sent by express, buyer to pay charges, at the following exceedingly 

 low rates : Three collections for S2, five for $3, nine for $5, twelve 

 for $6, twenty-one for $10. or forty-five for $20, or the 82 collections 

 (582 varieties of plants, bulbs and seeds — sufficient to stock a green- 

 house or garden) for $36, to which our book, " Gardening for Pleas- 

 ure," and Catalogue (value $2.25), will be added ; in cases where any 

 of the collections of plants and seeds are not wanted, we allow the 

 purchaser to strike out and duplicate any other collection offered. 



NonCB.— See the liberal plant premiums we give away with the above collections when sent by express. (For fuU details see page 98.) 



We will give a discount of ten per cent, from above prices on all cash orders received and shipped (by express) before April Ist. But under no circTimstances will w© 

 give any discount after that date.
