20 % Reduction 



in Express Rates on 

 Plants. 



Under the new ruling ot the leading Express Companies advocated and 

 secured by us, plants packed in closed or crated boxes will now be 

 carried at the " General Specials " rate This raie means a reduction of 20 

 per cent, from the "-egular merchandise rates to all points where no 

 "General Specials" ex sts. To points where a "General Specials" rateisin 

 force the companies make a special reduction. Shipments weighing less 

 than 100 lbs receive the benefit of the rate per 100 los. but the minimum 

 charge is 3'c. For instance, where the regular merchandise rate is $4.00per 

 100 lbs., a box of plants packed closed, weighing 100 lbs. will be carried for 

 $3.20, a saving of HOc. on one shipment.
