COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL. 



19 



ERRORS. — We take the utmost caxe in filling orders, striving to do a little more for our 

 friends and patrons than we offer, yet in the press of business mistakes will sometimei 

 occur, in which event we wish to be promptly notified of the fact, and will make such 

 corrections as will be perfectly satisfactory. Please keep copies of all your orders, for 

 comparison. 



CHANGE OF ADDRESS. — Should you make any change in your permanent address, 

 please notify us, so that we may be able to forward our Catalogue vsdth regularity. 



RECOMMENDATION. — The favor of your kind recommendation of our house to any of 

 your friends in^want of Seeds, will be kindly appreciated. 



CORRESPONDENCE.— We always try to answer promptly every question asked, but as 

 our mail from February to May is very large, and the strain of work upon ourselves and 

 assistants is very great, we therefore hope our customers who have necessary questions 

 to ask during these months will state them as briefly as possible, and keep them entirely 

 distinct from orders. 



PREMIUMS. — As an inducement to our customers to get their neighbors and friends to club 

 with them in sending their orders, we offer the following liberal premiums on Seeds in 

 Packets only, and at Catalog^ue prices: 



For $1.00, select packets to the value of $ 1.25 I For $4.00, select packets to the value of $ 5.15 

 " 2.00, " " " 2.50 " 6.00, " " 6.50 



•« 3.00, " " 3.80 I »' 10.00, " " " 14.00 



The above club rates apply only to Seeds by the Packet, and are not allowed on 

 Seeds by the ounce, pound, pint or quart. A club order will be sent in a package to one 

 address, or if desired, to each individual of a club, if their names and post ofiice are given. 

 COLLECTIONS. — Some prefer to leave the selection of varieties to us, and incases where 

 purchasers are entirely unacquainted with the different varieties of Flowers and Vegeta- 

 bles, this may be the better plan. We have for this purpose put up the following select 

 assortment of Choice Flower and Vegetable Seed. The very liberal premiums offered to 

 clubs, before mentioned, are included in these collections. The collections are positively 

 of our own selection :

MARKET GARDENERS— We invite you to try ''Cole's Tested Seeds." If you have 

 neT«r given them a trial, do so this season; they speak their own praise wherever planted. 



Market gardeners and institutions who use large quantities of bulk seeds should send 

 for our special Market Gardener's Price List. 



TO DEALERS IN SEEDS.— Our Wholesale Trade List of Seeds, in Bulk and Papered, 

 sent free on application, to all those who buy to sell again. Merchants can make more 

 Money in selling our Papered Seeds than on the Commission Seeds. Correspondence 

 solicited.

 STORE.'* The seed business has been conducted by the present proprietor, E. M. Cole,

 of the Seed Department since 1874, and fully understands the wants of his customers. 



With many thanks for past favors, and trusting that our pleasant relations with our 

 old friends and patrons may continue for many years to come, and assuring those who 

 may now for the first time favor us with their esteemed orders that we shall see they have 

 no cause to regret it we remain, Yours respectfully,
