Express Hates from West Grove, Pa., to various points. 



Having goods sent by Express continues to grow in favor because, when shipment is made by 

 this method, we are able to send larger plants, and having more space in which to pack we leave 

 a goodly portion of soil around the roots. In this way the plants receive no set-back in transit 

 and always arrive in first- class order. All Express Companies allow us 20 per cent, discount from merchandise rates. 



The average buyer has a mortal dread of Express charges. The schedule below gives an ap- 

 proximate idea of the very reasonable charges on lo, 15, 20, 30 and 100 lbs. to various points. You are 

 thus enabled to form a close estimate of what the charges on your order will amount to. If you 

 order two-year Roses or plants from 4-inch pots you can figure them when packed as follows : 12 

 plants will weigh about 15 lbs.; 25 plants 30 lbs.; 50 plants 50 lbs.; 125 plants 100 lbs. You will 

 notice that the charges to the most distant points are very inconsiderable ; for instance, 20 lbs. to 

 Omaha, Nebraska, is only gocts.; to St. Paul, Minnesota, 75 cts.; to Corpus Christi, Texas, ^1.40; 

 to New Orleans, Louisiana, 80 cts.; to Chicago, Illinois, 45 cts. All goods, unless otherwise 

 agreed, are sent forward charges collect. There is absolutely no advantage in having shipments 

 prepaid unless the rate exceeds 8 cts. per lb. The Express Companies make a special rate when 

 charges are prepaid of 10 cts. for the first pound and a half and 8 cts. per lb. for each additional 

 pound. This rate is an advantage to distant points only when the ordinary charges exceed 8 cts. 

 per lb. The minimum charge to any point is 35 cts. We have but one company at West Grove, 

 the "Adams," which delivers shipments to any Express office in the United States. 



One-year-old plants, when packed, weigh from 20 to 30 lbs. per 100.
