Here are some suggestions which can speed up deiivery 



Normally we ship all orders, unless Instructed otherwise, by prepaid Parcel 

 Post to all points in the U.S.A. and Canada. For customers who desire faster 

 service we can offer either of two suggestions, both of which are obviously 

 more costly but do assure fast and extra-fast arrival time. The information 

 below must of necessity be approximate but it is as nearly accurate as we can 

 make it. 



SPECIAL HANDLING 



This is a Parcel Post surcharge and packages so 

 marked and prepaid are handled the same as letter 

 mail, or nearly so, and thus travel much faster than 

 regular parcels. The fees are based upon weight of the 

 package, as follows: 



Not more than 2 pounds 25c (1 to 3 Iris) 



More than 2 pounds, but 



not more than 10 pounds 35c (4 to 20 Iris) 



More than 10 pounds 50c (21 to 35 Iris) 



TO CUSTOMERS IN CANADA: We ship many orders 

 to Canada every year. There is a simple procedure 

 which all Canadians must follow, however, in order to 

 import Iris or other plant material. Make out the list of 

 items wanted, state name and address of firm you are 

 ordering from and send it to the Plant Import Division 

 of your Department of Agriculture at Ottawa. They in 

 turn will send you a permit number and labels. Then 

 send your order, including the permit label to us in the 

 usual way. 



CUSTOMERS IN EUROPE AND ALL OVERSEAS 

 POINTS: Please add $5.00 to all orders to cover in- 

 spection and custom declaration fees. 



TIME OF SHIPMENT, TERMS, ETC. 



SHIPMENTS will begin July 1st and continue through 

 the summer and early fall. During July and August we 

 will ship constantly in the sequence received. Your 

 success is assured if planted any time during this 

 period, but early ordering is advisable to avoid stock 

 being sold short. 



TRANSPORTATION is by prepaid parcel post. 



TERMS are cash with the order, either check, draft or 

 money order. We do not advise the enclosure of cur- 

 rency with your order. No CCD. shipments — this adds 

 to cost and involves red tape for you and for us. 



WE GUARANTEE all plants to be true to name, top 

 quality and size, free from insect pests and disease, 

 and to reach you in a live and healthy condition. If for 

 any reason you are not completely satisfied, please 

 notify us promptly. 



MINIMUM ORDER— $5.00 



No Shipments Made During Spring Months. 

 Fall Shipping Season Closes in Late October. 



THIS CATALOG is free to all customers of record over 

 a 2-year period, otherwise copies may be obtained for 

 50c and this amount deducted from your first order. 



AIR PARCEL POST 



While this is pretty expensive, some of our customers 

 regard the service as worth the added cost. Air pack- 

 ages will now travel to almost anywhere in the U.S.A. 

 in from one to two days. The charges are based on 

 Zone Rates and are rather difficult to accurately pre- 

 dict. However, the chart below will enable you to figure 

 such costs reasonably close. 



If you live East of Chicago and a line running down to 

 Houston you are in the 8th zone. If you are West of 

 those points ask your postmaster what zone Silverton, 

 Oregon, is in; then use the chart below. 



Figure weight of the parcel this way: 



1 Rhizome lib. 12-15 Rhizomes. . . 6 lbs. 



2- 3 Rhizomes 2 lbs. 18-20 Rhizomes. . . 8 lbs. 



4- 6 Rhizomes . . . .3 lbs. 21-25 Rhizomes ... 10 lbs. 

 7-10 Rhizomes . . . .4 lbs. 26-30 Rhizomes. .. 12 lbs.

Please Note — If you request AIR shipment be sure to 

 remit enough to cover cost. We will refund any over 

 payment but cannot assume any shortage in this re- 

 gard and will ship by regular parcel post, refunding 

 the difference in such a case. There is no air parcel 

 post service to Canada.
