till any plant orders amounting !■• 

 less than M i cents. By my careful system of packing, it is impossible for me to 

 pack an order at a cast of much less than 25 cents, no matter if the said oiler 

 is only for a single plant; consequently it will readily be seen from this that all 

 orders for less than 50 cents, would have to be filled "at a loss, so I must reiterate 

 what I stated above that plant orders amounting to less than 50 Cents axe not desired. 

 In elub orders it will make no difference as to the size of each one's order, provided the 

 are all sent at one time to one address. Ibove applies to plant orders only. No man 

 how small the seed order if only for a single packet 1 am always glad to fill it.
