Free by Mail 



the Foot Note) 



All the items in our Catalogue 

 which are priced "postpaid," will 

 be delivered free by mail. Even to most distant countries, 

 such as India, South Africa and Asia Minor, we ship this 

 way with marked success. (See "Foreign Orders.") 



ORDERS BY EXPRESS 



Two-year old roses, large size shrubbery, fruit trees, etc., 

 are too large to mail and must be sent by express. We 

 recommend that customers instruct us to ship smaller sized 

 plants also by express, when in our judgment it is best to 

 do so. We can send larger plants this way and can leave 

 most of the earth on roots, •nhich is of course much better 

 for our customers. Express Charges must be paid by the 

 purchaser, unless otherwise agreed. (See note foot of this 

 page.) Also, we are careful to pack as light as safety of the 

 plants will permit and add as many extras as we can afford 

 to help cover charges. 



The Cost of Express Charges 



you can estimate quite closely with the following schedule. 

 Use the rate named for the town nearest you and count 

 the weight of two-year old plants when packed ready to 

 express about as follows: 12 plants — 15 lbs.; 25 plants — 

 30 lbs ; 125 plants — 100 lbs. ; plants one- year old 20 to 

 30 lbs. per 100 plants. 



We are served at West Grove by both the Adams and 

 L'nited States Express Companies, which enable us to 

 deliver over every line in America.

is from 10c. to 1 



2c. per lb., but charges when

 If too much be sent, we will return the difference promptly, 

 after shipment is made.

 if the party ordering will name some one in New York to 

 receive and forward the goods and prepay Ocean Freight.
