You Want Prompt Delivery 
So Help Us Give It by Following these Directions 
in Ordering 
ORDER EARLY. It will be greatly to your 
advantage to send us your orders as soon as you 
have had the time to make your selection. This 
assures you prompt shipments from our complete 
stocks and avoids any possible delays incident to 
the “Rush Season.” 
IN ORDERING follow catalog prices. They in- 
clude prepayment of postage on all seeds ordered 
by packet, ounce, quarter-pound, pound and five- 
pound lots, unless otherwise specifically stated. 
If the order is to be sent by express or freight, 
deduct five cents per pound from prices given. 
Larger quantities than five pounds will be sent 
by express or freight, the customer paying such 
charges. To figure the cost of postage on flower- 
ing plants and trees, add 15 per cent to the list 
price. 
THE POSTAGE TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES 
must be added to the cost of the goods selected 
in this catalogue, or the order will be reduced to 
allow for the postage. These rules will also ap- 
ply to orders from the United States where no 
postage allowance is made for mailing, or we will 
send by express.

such shipments.

Where it is not possible to secure these, Currency

WHEN ORDERING, write your name plainly, 
give correct P. O. address if by mail; if by ex- 
press, give your express office or nearest express 
office, to avoid any delay, if by rail or boat, give 
station or landing, and if possible the name of 
the railroad or name of boat. Where no instruc- 
tions are given as to how shipments should be 
made, we will use our own discretion; 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 pre- 
paid, customers not known to us must remit 
enough to cover freight. 
Crops are dependent for success or failure on 
so many factors besides the seeds themselves that 
it is impossible for us to give any warranty. This 
does not mean that we lack confidence in the 
seed we sell, but we have no control after they 
leave our possession. If we should warrant or 
guarantee our seeds, we would be held responsible 
for the crop, regardless of cause and this is a 
responsibility that we cannot and will not accept. 
NON-WARRANTY. The Steckler Seed Co., 
Inc., gives no warranty, express or implied, as 
to description, quality, productiveness, or any 
other matter of any seeds (bulbs, or plants), it 
sells and will not be responsible for the crop.
