aARDEN MANUAL FOR THE SOUTHERN STATES. 209 



Planters' and Gardeners' Price List. 



SEEDS ARE EXTREMELY SHORT THIS SEASON, ORDER EARLY. 



COST OF MAII/ING SEED. 



Orders for Dances and ten cent papers are mailed free of postage, except Beans, Peas and Corn. 

 On orders by the pound and quart an advance of 8c, per lb. or pint, and 15 cents per quart must be 

 added to quotations for postage. See page 4, in regard to seeds by mail. 



On the receipt of $1 00 we will mail 15 large size papers of seeds, put up the same as seeds sold by 

 the pound. These papers can be selected from this Catalogue, and include four papers of either Peas 

 or Beans in the fifteen papers. Or for tho same amount we will mail twenty smaller papers, including 

 four papers of either Peas or Beans. This is done to enable customers to get reliable seed in good 

 sized papers in places where our seeds are not sold. 



CHEAP SEED. 



While we claim to sell good seed as low as any one in the business, we do not want a reputation for 

 cheap seed, which In fact is only another name for a mixed, low grade, or worthless article. Many com 

 plaints reach us, from time to time, of great loss to gardeners here from purchasing from establish- 

 ments advertising cheap seed. It is poor economy to try to save a few cents when we bear in mind that 

 the cost of the seed is a small matter in the total cost of the crop. If we do not start with a pure seed, 

 true to name and kind, of good vitality, it is self-evident that we cannot make a good crop, no matter 

 how lavisli we may be after planting in fertilizing and cultivating. We are in the business to stay and 

 will not risk the loss of our reputation to gain a few extra dollars now. 



We also wish to call the attention of our patrons to the fact that the past season has been axtremely 

 unfavorable to the seed crop throughout the whole world. The natural result of this is that hiiiher 

 prices than usual are asked by all growers for high grade seeds, guaranteed to be fresh. This is par- 

 ticularly noticeable on Peas, Beans, Corn and Clover varieties. You can kbst assured that where 



CHEAP GOODS ARE OFFERED ORDERS WILL BE FILLED FROM OLD STOCK. 



OUR TERMS— Cash or satisfactory reference. Orders from unknown parties whose 

 financial rating is not recorded, mast be accompanied by a Draft on New Orleans, Regfistered

 your express office or nearest express, to avoid any delay; also if by rail or boat give station or landing,

BEWARE OF CHEAP SEEDS. 



NO ONE CAN FURNISH A GOOD ARTICLE BELOW COST. 



Special notice is given to purchasers to compare our catalogue prices with those of Northern firms , 

 who a^id freight, cartage and cost of bags. Taking those items into consideration it will be seen that 

 our prices are in keeping with those whose prices are far in advance of ours and our seed are none but 

 the best the soil produces. 



These prices are calculated very low, be careful of lower offers.
