Fifty-One Years of Service 



It takes quite a measure of faith and confidence on the part of a customer to 

 buy seed and then wait for an entire season to learn what the results will be. We 

 are happy to state that P. MANN & COMPANY have been able to maintain a 

 standard of quality and perfect service in all these years, holding the respect and 

 confidence of thousands of patrons throughout Maryland, Virginia and near-by 

 counties. 



This fact should convince even new customers that they need have no hesi- 

 tancy in ordering their seeds and up-to-date Farm Implements from a house which 

 has enjoyed the respect of so many buyers all these years. 



P. MANN & COMPANY invites you to make use of this catalog as a complete 

 guide in selecting seeds and implements to fill your requirements for the coming 

 season, and further suggests that you ORDER EARLY to avoid unforeseen delays 

 and disappointments that usually follow in the wake of late orders. 



It will be extremely gratifying to have you as a customer of this house during 

 1920, and we thank you in advance for any business you may see fit to give us. 



INSTRUCTIONS TO PURCHASERS — READ CAREFULLY 



Write your Name, Post-Office, County and State as clearly as possible. 



Use the Order Sheet — fill in Quantity, Name of Article and Price in the order as given in the 

 Catalog, and always keep a copy of your order. Write your instructions at the end of order — 

 not between the items. 



Remittances should be made by Post-Office Orders, or by Express Money Orders, Registered 

 Letter or Draft on New York. 



SHIPMENTS — Seeds and Bulbs can be sent by Parcel Post at the same rates as general 

 merchandise, or they can be forwarded by Express at 20 per cent less than merchandise rates. 

 Seeds in bulk, Implements and other heavy goods are shipped by freight, and unless there is a 

 freight agent at point of destination, the freight must be prepaid; the purchaser advances the same, 

 unless otherwise arranged. 



As the season advances some stocks of Seeds are exhausted, so it is advisable when late orders 

 are sent to name a few substitutes. We make substitution only when requested to do so. If not 

 so instructed, the remittance will be refunded. 



We do not warrant in any way, express or implied, the contents or description, quality, pro- 

 ductiveness or any other matter of any Seeds, Bulbs or Plants sold by us, and we will not be in 

 any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept goods on such terms, he must 

 return them at once, and money will be refunded. 



Catalogs are sent free to all our customers of the past year. Please advise us promptly of 

 any change of address, so you will not fail to receive your copy promptly.
