 York Ave. N. E., Washington, D. C. 



SEEDS DELIVERED FREE. We pay postage on all 

 Packets, Ounces, Quarter Pounds, or Pounds of Vegetable 

 and Flower Seeds, ordered at list prices. This also ap- 

 plies to Peas, Beans, and Sugar Corn by the Packet, Pint 

 and Quart; larger quantities than these, carrying charges 

 extra. This DOES NOT APPLY to Field and Grass 

 Seeds, Seed Potatoes or Flowering Plants, which will be 

 sent at regular Parcel Post or Express Rates. 



OUR TERMS are always cash with order, or satisfactory 

 New York, Philadelphia or Washington reference. 



MONEY can be sent at our risk by Post-Office or Express 

 Money Order, New York or Chicago Draft, or by reg- 

 istered letter. We cannot hold ourselves responsible for 

 cash sent loose in letters. 



AN ORDER BLANK for your convenience in placing 

 your order will be found in this catalog. 



NAME AND ADDRESS should be written plainly both 

 on the Order Blank and on the envelope enclosing the 

 order. Names of seeds and plants should be written out 

 in full in plain writing. 



EXPRESS or FREIGHT shipments should have the 

 name of the station plainly given where different from 

 the post-office. 



GIVE FULL DIRECTIONS always whether shipment is 

 to be made by freight, express or parcel post. 



ORDER EARLY. We aim to fill all orders within twenty- 

 four hours after receipt. Please do not wait until the 

 extreme rush season when there are more chances for 

 delay. 



WE GUARANTEE our seeds, plants, etc., to reach our 

 customer in good condition. We give no warranty, ex- 

 pressed or implied, as to description (including kind, va- 

 riety and name) quality or productiveness, or any other 

 matter of any seeds, plants or bulbs we send out, and 

 will not be in any way responsible for the crop. There 

 are many reasons why seeds do not always turn out as 

 desired such as sowing too deep or too shallow, in too 

 wet weather, cold weather, or too dry soil, or too wet 

 soil, insects which do not only destroy the seeds, but 

 often the young plants, about the time they appear at 

 the surface of the ground. For these causes we cannot 

 guarantee seeds or the crop.
