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 v/e 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 approxi- 



mate idea of the very reasonable charges on 10, 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 75 cts. ; 



to St. Paul, Minnesota, 75 cts.; to Austin, Texas, |i.i5 ; to New Orleans, Louisiana, 90 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., in which case the Express 



Companies make a special rate 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 over the lines of one company 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.
