Wholesale Price List 
July-August, 1896. 
In submitting the Summer Edition of our Wholesale Price List it 
gives us much pleasure to return our thanks for the very 
liberal patronage accorded us during the past season, and in 
soliciting your orders for the present year we beg to assure 
you of our continued and unceasing efforts to give the 
utmost satisfaction, and to maintain the high reputation that 
we have so long enjoyed for supplying only the best strains 
of Vegetable and Flower Seeds at reasonable prices. 
LOW EXPRESS RATES ON PLANTS. 
We are shipping by express lines to all parts of the country, plants packed in 
closed boxes at a reduction of 20 per cent. from regular rates of merchandise. Boxes 
weighing less than too pounds are charged at pound rates, minimum charge not less 
than 35 cents. For example: where the general rate is $5.00 per 100 pounds, a box weighing. 
20 pounds will be carried for 80 cts. Prepaid 4 pound packages of seeds, plants and 
bulbs are carried to California and all distant points for 30 cents each. 
By our careful and thorough system of packing, we GUARANTEE SAFE DELIVERY 
on Plants and perishable goods, when ordered to be sent by EXPRESS. 
PLANTS and PERISHABLE GOODS shipped between NOVESIBER 1ST and APRIL 15TH 
are at PURCHASER’S RISK as regards freezing, when ordered to be sent by RAILROAD 
or STEAMER. 
As the saving in transportation charges is solely for the benefit of the purchaser, it is 
only reasonable that they assume the risk when perishable goods are not sent by Express.

CHANGE OF TERMS. 
In order to equalize and to give the same time of credit on all purchases, we have 
decided to abolish our old system of credits in which all accounts regardless of date of pur- 
chase were due in January and July, and have decided to adopt a new system, as follows:-- 
On and after January ist, 1896, all bills will be due and payable Ninety (90) days after 
date of Invoice. [{Q ~No charge is made for boxes or packing, nor for delivery to Freight 
Depots or Express Offices. [Qs~In filling out your order, always give SHIPPING DIREC- 
TIONS, and write NAME and ADDRESS DISTINCTLY.

supply only New, Genuine and Unadulterated Seeds, we still give no warranty, express or implied, as 
to description, quality, productiveness, or any other matter of any of the Seeds we send out, and will 
not be in any way responsible for the crop. Every order received for articles named in this Catalogue 
will be executed on these conditions only.
