\ \ hen we Execute Orders. 
Every order is filled immediately on arrival, or is acknowl- 
edged 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 may be assumed that the order has 
miscarried, or that the name or address was omitted from the 
order. We will, where notified of such a case, use our best efforts 
to trace it without delay. 
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. 
No charge made. 
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. Infact, we assume extra expense 
in suppiying light strong cases, and, where possible, we pack in bas- 
kets covered with waterproof covers, which greatly reduces weight. 
Cloth bags only we charge for, and these at cost, viz.: 1 peck, 
10c.; 1g bush., 12c.; 1 bush., 15c.; 2bush., 20c. All grass seed bags, 
excepting bags for Timothy and Clover, are furnished free. 
Special packing of seeds for foreign shipments, when neces- 
sary, in tin-lined cases or double sacks, we charge for at cost. 
We make no charge for cartage or delivery of goods to any rail- 
road 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 the United States or Canada. We ship plants at all 
seasons of the year, even in the coldest weather. 
The advantage that’ we possess in shipping from New York 
is pronounced on account of the many different routes by which we 
ne r- 
canship, and the consequent competition in speed and transporta- | remittance, oa send New York City reference, to save delay.
