Dreer's Wholesale Price List 



SEPTEMBEa— 1914— DECEMBER 



SPECIAL NOTICE-^ 



While it has long been a rule in the Seed, Plant and Bulb trade to 

 accept all orders for growing crops and stock not actually in hand subject 

 to crop failures, shortages or other causes beyond control, it is seldom 

 that we have failed to make deliveries as promised, but the present con- 

 dition of affairs throughout Europe, resulting in the drafting for the 

 armies of many of the men necessary to harvest the crops, the almost 

 complete stoppage of transportation between this and the leading 

 European countries, on which we depend for a large part of our supplies, 

 makes it necessary at this time to call the special attention of our 

 customers to the above rule and also to the rule in which we reserve the 

 right to advance prices without notice. 



Our friendly relations, large purchases, financial standing, and repu- 

 tation for fair dealing with the leading growers in Europe insure us and 

 our customers the delivery, if such is possible, of the best stocks of all 

 Seeds, Plants and Bulbs procurable, and we pledge ourselves to take care 

 of the interests of our customers to the best of our ability.
