 Red Trade- Mark, a fae-simile of which is here shown. 



When We Execute Orders. 



Every order is filled immediately on arrival, or is acknowledged i 

 under rare circumstances its shipment is likely to be delayed for a day o 

 two. If goods notification of shipment or acknowledgement of order is nc 

 received by the customer after a reasonable lapse of time, it may b 

 assumed that the order has miscarried, or that the name or address wa 

 omitted from the order. We will, when notified of such a case, use or - ha 

 efforts to trace it without delay. 



Give full shipping instructions on each and every order you send, 

 avoid chance of error, never write letters on the same sheet as your or- 



We fill orders of all values from the smallest to the largest, anc 

 receive the same careful and prompt attention. 



ABOUT PACKING AND SHIPPING 



When goods are ordered from both seed and greenhouse establishment 

 we always combine, where prac icable, the orders and make one shipm - 



We make no charge for packing, cases, baskets, packages or bar 



and pack as lightly as possible, consistent with safety, so as to reducf 

 cost of carriage when paid by purchaser. In fact, we assume extra ex} 

 in supplying light strong cases and. where possible we pack in ba 

 covered with waterproof covers which greatly reduces -weight. 



Cloth bags only we charge for. and these at cost, viz : 1 peck, 1 

 bush, 12c; 1 bush, 15c; 2 bush , 2i'c. All grass seed bags excepting ba^ 

 Timothy and Clover, are furnished free. 



Special packing of seeds for foreign shipments, when necessary, in fi 

 lined cases or double sacks we charge for at cost. 



We make no charge for cartage or delivery of goods to any raih 

 station, steamship line or express office in New York City. 



The safe arrival is guaranteed of all goods sent by express to any j J 



of the United States or Canada. We ship plants at all seasons of the ye ,, 

 even in the coldest weather. 



When shipped by freight we deliver all bulbs and roots properly pac' I 

 and in good condition, into the hands of transportation companies. Af a 

 that our responsibility ceases. Consignee then assumes all risks of heati , 

 freezing and delays. 



SPECIAL IN REGARD TO THE SALE AND SHIPMENT OF PLANTS. 



All plants sent by express, unless specially ordered otherwise. 



Plants will be sent by freight if requested, but at purchaser's risk. 

 Plants will be sent by mail if so ordered, and it is practicable to do so, but 

 only at an advance of twenty-five per cent, on the prices quoted. 



The plants are offered in this list at the rates per 100 provided (except 



where they are otherwise offered) that not less than five of each clas »r 

 variety are taken. 



The varieties must be our own selection of sorts, unless other 1 »e 

 offered. Any one warning special kinds, not offered in this wholesale i 

 can order from our retail Descriptive Catalogue (The Manual of Everyi jg 

 for the Garden) at the prices quoted therein from which we allow a B- 

 count of one-third. 



We have secured for our 

 customers from EXPRESS 

 COMPANIES. . . 



20 Per Cent. 



Reduction In Express Rates 

 on Plants. 



Under the new ruling of the leading Express Companies advocated and 

 secured by us, plants packed in closed boxes, will now be carried at the 

 '■ General Specials " rate This rate means a reduction of 20 per cent, trom 

 the regular merchandise rates to all points where no "General Specials" 

 exists. To points where a "Ge eral Specials" rate is in force the companies 

 made a special reduction. Shipments weighing less than 100 lbs. receive 

 the benefit of the rate per 1001os..but the minimum charge is 35c. For 

 instance, where the regular merchandise rate is S4.00 per 100 lbs., a box of 

 plants packed closed, weighing 100 lbs. will be carried tor $3.20, a saving of 

 80c on one shipment.
