Information for Purchasers 



WE ARE LEADING GROWERS of the newest and choicest Roses and other beautiful flowers. 

 OUR NEW GUIDE IS OUR STORE, where our patrons can shop at convenience. Prices are 

 plainly marked, and everything suitable to go by mail is DELIVERED FREE at the prices named. 



WE GIVE close personal attention to every part of our business, and are always glad to accom- 

 modate and assist our customers in every way we can. WHEN YOU ORDER, please use 

 the printed envelope and order sheet when convenient, and kindly put all orders for Seeds and 

 Plants on the separate order sheets provided for each, so that they can go to their respective depart- 

 ments without delay ; ALSO, be sure to write your address clear and plain. 



HOW TO SEND MONEY. 



Please send money with the order. Money may be 

 sent at our risk if forwarded by P. O. Money Order, 

 Express Money Order, Bank Draft or in Registered Letter, and cost of same may be deducted from 

 amount forwarded ; but we cannot be responsible for any order or money that fails to reach us when not 

 sent as above directed. CASH should be sent by Registered letter ; coins should be carefully wrapped 

 in cloth and care taken to seal the letter securely. New postage stamps accepted for small amounts. 



LOST ORDERS -Letters are sometimes lost, 

 stolen or destroyed in transit, so that they fail to 

 reach us, and are never heard of. When remit- 

 tance has been made by P. O. or Express Order, or 

 Bank Draft, duplicates can be obtained if neces- 

 sary, and all loss avoided. If you do not hear 

 from us within a reasonable time after sending 

 your order, please write again, stating when and 

 in what form payment was sent, and giving full 

 information and list of what you ordered, also be 

 sure to mention post-office to which goods were to 

 be shipped, and sign the same name as in the first 

 order, so that it may have immediate attention. 



IMPORTANT — We fill all orders as soon as 

 received or acknowledge their receipt. If you 

 wish orders held, please be sure to say so ; otherwise 

 we understand they are to be sent at once. 



FREE BY MAIL— Please notice that everything 

 offered in this book, excepting large two-year-old 

 roses and other large-size plants, are sent free by 

 mail on receipt of price. To Canada, we send pot- 

 grown roses, also plants, bulbs and seeds, by mail, 

 postpaid ; but large roses, shrubs and trees are 

 prohibited. We also send to Mexico, Hawaii, 

 Bermuda, Cuba, Porto Rico, and many other for- 

 eign countries. 



ORDERS ARE SENT BY EXPRESS when re- 

 quested or when too large to go by mail. Express 

 charges are at the expense of the purchaser, but 

 we are careful to pack as light as the safety 

 of the plants will permit, and add as many extras 

 as we can afford, to help cover the charges. 

 As express charges on plants, bulbs, etc., are 20 

 per cent, less than merchandise rates, we recom- 

 mend that purchasers instruct us to send by express 

 when in our judgment it is best to do so ; we can 

 then send larger plants, and they are quite sure to 

 arrive in first- class condition. 



We cheerfully answer all questions about shipping, 

 hut in all cases, unless otherwise agreed, the huyer 

 who wishes plants, etc., sent by express must pay the 

 express charges. 



NOTE — The special express rate on plants, etc., makes 

 charges, even to distant points, much less than one would 

 suppose. For instance: 20 lbs. to St. Paul, Minn., is only 

 76 cts.; to St. Louis, Mo., 44 cts.; to Austin, Tex.. $1.08; to 

 New Orleans, La., 88 cts.; to Chicago, 111., 45 cts.; to Indian- 

 apolis, Ind., 40 cts.. The minimum charge to any point is 

 35 cts. West of the Rocky Mountains, the express rate 

 on plants is from 10 to 12 cts. per lb.; but charges when 

 prepaid are only 8 cts. per lb. To save themselves unneces- 

 sary expense, therefore, we recommend customers living in 

 that section to remit with their order sufficient money to 

 prepay express. (This maybe estimated by schedule giving 

 weight of plants when packed, shown on page 42.) If you 

 send too much money, we will refund the difference at once.
