THE LARGEST SEED WAREHOUSE IN THE EAST. 



Very likely if you have never tried it, you may 

 think buying by letter a risky sort of business. You 

 can set this down as a fact : buying by letter 



FROM ANY FIRST-CLASS HOUSE IS AS SAFE, AS SURE 

 AND YOU WJLL BE AS HONESTLY TREATED AS IF YOU 

 STOOD BY THE COUNTER AND PAID SPOT CASH. YoU 



cm find many svich houses in the U. S. Of course, 

 some establishmentshavegreater facilities than others; 

 and also give uiore attention to such trade. There is 

 a choree in almost everything. As good a question as 

 } ou can ask about any store is : " How does it pros- 

 per ? ' A look outside or better a look inside answers 

 the question for ours. No business will go on grow- 

 ing and growing unless it deserves to grow. There 

 must be downright merit to bring success. 



Could anythiug be easier than to make a test ? 



All Vegetable and Flower Seeds by the packet, 

 ounce, pound, pint or quart, will be delivered by 

 us postage paid, and free of all expense, to any 



post office in the United States. Thus, you have 

 only to enclose with the order the cost of the seeds 

 as given in this catalogue (either by P. O. order, 

 express money order, postal note, draft, cash or 

 stamps), and they will be safely delivered, neatly 

 packed, without extra charge. Purchasers of seeds, 

 in large or small quantities, cannot fail to see the 

 great advantages to them of this offer, as it places 

 our store at your very door, and enables customers 

 thousands of miles away to obtain their supplies as 

 cheaply as if they called in person at our store.

 FREIGHT OR EXPRESS 



may deduct postage at the rate of eight cents per 

 pound, or fifteen cents per quart from our prices.

 transportation charges on receipt of seed. Freight 

 rates from Philadelphia to all points are very low.

 proper change, we accept postage stamps the same 

 as cash (two-cent stamps preferred).

 sent C.O.D. by express, when twenty-five percent, 

 of the amount accompanies the order. We are 

 obliged to add the extra express charges for the 

 return of money on all C.O.D. orders. It is, there- 

 fore, less expense to the purchaser to forward full 

 amount of money with order. Plants cannot be sent 

 C. O. D. , neither can goods be sent C.O.D. by freight.
