TERMS 
Our Terms are strictly CASH WITH THE ORDER. Appreciating the satisfaction derived both 
from selling and planting only the best bulbs, we have taken great pains that everything on our list | 
should be of strictly first class quality. Besides, we have made VERY LOW PRICES, quality consid- ~ tes 
ered, hence we must request our friends to ask no indulgence from us in the way ‘of time, but to am 
enclose funds with the order. 
We Do Not Send C. O. D., as the cost of collecting return charges i is quite an unnecessary item am 
expense, and the prices being given, we can conceive of no necessity os warrant goods being so sent. ce 
How to Send Money. 
ods, viz: Postal Money Order, Draft on New York or Chicago, or Express Company’s Money Order. 
The rates charged for Postal Money Orders and Express Money Orders are now so low that these — eps 
are the best ways to remit. We will bear the expense of sending money in either of these ways or of — 
the cost of a New York or Chicago Draft if no more expensive than a postal money order. Deduct the 
cost of the order from amount sent. Express Money Orders can be obtained at ALL offices of the 
principal Express Companies. They are CHEAP and ABSOLUTELY SAFE. = 
When Money Orders cannot be obtained, letters containing money should always be registered. 
Money in ordinary letters is UNSAFE. If currency is sent by express, the charges should be prepaid, : 
and if Local Checks are used they must be certified. 
Name and Address should always be given.—Frequently we receive unsigned letters. Some- 
times they contain money and orders. Sometimes too, letters are received in which the name of the 
town is left out and the postmark is blurred. Wecannot fill orders unless we know the name and 
address of the buyer. The easiest way for you is to use our order sheet, filling in the blanks. 
Postage and Express Charges.—ALL BULBS will be sent by Mail or Express, charges prepaid, 
when ordered at single or dozen rates. The Ioo rates and over, are by Express or Freight at purchaser’s — 
expense, unless otherwise stated. Volt less than 6 of any one variety supplied at dozen rates, 25 at 100 — 
rates and 250 at 1,000 rates. SEEDS will be sent free by Mail, or Express, except as otherwise stated. — 
Substitution.—It sometimes occurs that our stock of some named varieties of Hyacinths or other 
bulbs becomes exhausted before the close of the season, in which case we shall take the liberty of 
substituting others similar in color and price, being equally as good, if not superior, to the ones or- 
dered. Should any of our customers object to this course, they will please so state in their orders. 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to description, purity. productiveness, or any other matter of any seeds 
or bulbs we send out, and we will not be in any way responsible for the crop. 7
