Thank You 



Not for a long time has the advice to buy early at low prices meant so much 

 as this year. True, some prices are not so low now, but the difficulty of getting 

 certain classes of goods will surely make many things cost more later. We 

 have put time and effort to get ready to serve you at best prices, but in order 

 to be sure you are served, we hope you will not put off too long. 



We thank you deeply for your trade this past year. All our endeavors have 

 been to serve you well and economically. This year, we hope to share together 

 the rising prosperity. 



Always we want you to feel free to call on us. There are many times we 

 may be able to help you with a word or two even though a sale may not result. 

 May we see you many times soon. 



Cordially yours, 



CHARLES W. BOLGIANO.

HOW TO ORDER 



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 applies to Peas, Beans, 

 and Sugar Corn by the Packet, Pint and Quart; 

 larger quantities than these, carrying charges ex- 

 tra. 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 sat- 

 isfactory 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 registered 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 plain- 

 ly 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 dif- 

 ferent from the post-office. 



GIVE FULL DIRECTIONS always whether ship- 

 ment 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 war- 

 ranty, expressed or implied, as to description (in- 

 cluding kind, variety and name) quality or pro- 

 ductiveness, 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 rea- 

 sons why seeds do not 

 always turn out as de- 

 sii'ed such as sowing 

 too deep or too shal- 

 low, 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 can- 



not guarantee seeds '"'*'^'<,^„r.';°'*'^° 

 or the crop. f w. bougiano a co
