OUR CATALOGUE FOR 1919 



GENERAL INFORMATION 



How to Send Money — Remittances should be made either in the form of an Express Money Order, P. O. Money Order, 

 Bonk Draft or Registered Letter, lc and 2c stamps will be accepted for small amounts, provided they are carefully 



wrapped, so as to prevent sticking. 



Be Sure to Give Full Name and Address with each order. Every season we get a number of orders without name of 



sender or Post Office, and the postmark on the envelope is often too obscure to be made out. There is no way of finding 

 out who the senders are; consequently we are blamed, whereas the fault is their own entirely. We therefore, beg our cor- 

 respondents to write their full name and address on each order. 



We prefer written orders, but when orders are given by f eIephone, they are accepted as understood, and at the risk 

 or the purchaser, in case of misunderstanding in transmitting ulephone orders. 



Seeds by Mail — Since our last catalogue was printed, all Seeds, Bulbs, and Plants have been admitted to the Parcel 

 Post rate of postage, and are now mailable at the same rate of po-tage as other merchandise. For full information and 

 Parcel Post rates, see table below. Remember, however, that we pay the postage on ail packets, ounces and one-quarter 

 I ounds at the price quoted in this catalogue. 



Seeds by Express — Express rates have also been materially reduced since issuing our last catalogue, and on the averag-- 

 express rates are now lower than Parcel Post rates to points beyond the third Zone, and when practical, we would adv»oe 

 customers to order goods shipped by Express, as it is far more satisfactory, quicker and afer. Goods ordered C. O. D. 

 by Express must have 25 per cent, of the amount accompany the order. We do not make shipments by F eight C. O. D. to 



points where there is no bank.

We appreciate the 

 ing all the time. We 



Seeds, Bulbs and Plants have been admitted to the Parcel Post 

 rate of postage, and are now carried at the same rate as other mer- 

 chandise, with the exception that packages weighing up to 8 ounces 

 are carried at the rate of lc for each 2 ounce-, regardless of distance. 

 Remember, however, that prices quoted in this catalogue on packets, 

 ounces and one-quarter pounds are postpaid, but when larger quan- 

 tities are ordered sent by mail, add the required postage as per rate 

 table to the left. When pounds are ordered, remit postage for 2 pounds; 

 when 2 i ounds are ordered, remit postage for 3 pounds; and so on, 

 as the wrapping of the packages will make it run over the actual 

 weight ordered. When figuring the amount of portage, if in doubt 

 as to the exact amount required, remit even more than you think 

 necessary, and we will return the amount not needed, as we cannot 

 send packages postage collect, nor charge on our books small amounts 

 due for postage stamps. When ordering pints, remit for postage on 

 1 pound mailing weight, and for quarts remit for 2 pounds mailing 

 weight. 



If you are in doubt as to what Zone you are in from Washington, ask 

 your postmaster. '1 lie weight limit in the first and second Zones is 50 

 I minds: nil other '/ones. 20 pounds. 



cannot be sent by Parcel Post; these should be ordered sent by express or 



pat-onage you have given us during the past year. Our business is grow- 

 attribute this to our efforts to furnish only high-grade seeds.
