J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., ALMANAC AND 



PLANTERS' AND GARDENERS' PRICE LIST. 



SEEDS ARE EXTREMELY SHORT THIS SEASON, ORDER EARLY. 



COST OF MAII^ING SB^D. 



Orders for ounces and ten cent papers are mailed free of piostage, except Beans, P*as 

 and Corn, See page 4 in regard to seeds by mail. On orders by the pound and quart i» 

 advance of eight cents per lb. or pint and fifteen cents per quart must be added to ques- 

 tions for postage. 



On the receipt of $r.oo we will mail fifteen large size papers of seeds, put up the same 

 as seeds sold by the pound. These papers can be selected from this Catalogue, atd te- 

 clude four papers of either Peas or Beans in the fifieen papers. Or for the same amouiJt 

 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 ©Hr 

 seeds are not sold. 



CHEAP SEEDS. 



While we claim to sell good seed as low as any one in the business, we do not wast s 

 reputation for cheap seed, which in fact is only another name for a mixed, low grade, er 

 worthless article. Many complaints reach us, from time to time, of great loss to gardeners 

 here from purchasing from establishments advertising cheap seed. It is poor economy I© 

 try to save a few cents on seed when we bear in mind that the cost of the seed is a small 

 m itter 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 

 lavish we may be after planting in fertilizing and cultivating. We are in the business t© 

 stay and vviil 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 extremeiy unfavorable to the seed crop throughout the whole world. The natuiral 

 result of this is that higher prices than usual are asked by all growers for high grade seeds^ 

 guaranteed to be fresh. This is particularly noticeable on Peas, Beans, Carrots, Cucumbets* 

 Water and Musk Melons, Corn and Clover varieties. Vou can rest assured that whtre 

 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, must be accompanied by a 

 Draft on New Orleans, Registered Letter or Money Order. Where neither of 

 the above can be obtained, send remittance in United States postage stamps^ 

 Stamps must be in good order, and placed so they will not stick together. 



No plants or live stock sent C. O. D. by express. 



When ordering write your name phiinly, give correct P. O. address if by mail, if by 

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

 boat give station or landing, and if possible the name of railroad or name of boat. 



All C. 0. D. orders mast be accompanlefl by at least half the amount.
