Short Notes 
and Information for our Customers. 
FREE CARRIAGE OF SEEDS. — We send all Vegetable and Flower Seeds carriage paid to any place in the United Kingdom, excepting I 
Peas and Beans, Potatoes and Artichokes, when any or all of these are ordered in small quantities, as in many such cases the carriage nearly, if not quite, 
absorbs the value of the goods. I 
Potatoes and sundries, &c., are only sent free if the value amounts to 20s. and upwards, unless forming part of a general seed order, when we 
send the whole carriage paid. 
EMPTY PACKAGES. — We charge at cost price, and allow half price if returned in good condition and carriage paid^ and must be in all 
cases accompanied with sender’s name and address and advised by post. 
Although every care will be taken in the packing and sending of plants, seeds, &c., risk of every description must be borne by the 
purchaser immediately they are delivered to the Railway Company or Postal Authorities. 
Kvery article is charged at the very lowest price. Our object is to give the ready-money buyers the advantages they are really entitled to. It may 
liapj»en that prices lower than ours may sometimes be quoted. This invaluably means false economy in a variety of ways — good things must be looked 
after by good men, who must be fairly paid, and good strains are only procured by unceasing labour and care. 
Full instructions as to the proper mode of forwarding must accompany each order, as it is calculated to expedite transit of goods, and 
save vexatious mistakes. All goods are advised the same day as forwarded, and the invoice posted as soon as possible afterwards. 
Say by what rail,

The greatest care is exercised, and utmost liberality showu, when the selection of sorts is left to us.

trouble of rendering and even re^rendering several times to our loss. 
orders by post will be dealt with precisely as if given personally. Those who send above 
their value will have additional put in to make up the full amount. 
We have every facility for keeping a large stock of everything enumerated in this Catalogue, and are therefore determined to adopt the system of

Our Terms of Credit are three months only from date of invoice. Not as in co-operative societies, do we demand payment beforehand, unless from I 
unknown correspondents, when satisfactory references to bankei's, or some person already known, are equally acceptable. So as to encourage quick returns | 
and but small profits, we allow 6 per cent, discount on all payments made within 14 days of date of invoice, but after tliat date must be remitted in full. | 
\\ lien special prices are quoted, accounts are payable one month from date of invoice and no discount. 
We hope all customers will apprise us of change of address, thus saving the annoyance to them of redirection and surcharge l>y postal officials and 
loss of double postage to us when returned; a halfpenny card would thus save us a shilling, and often pounds. 
^ I F“ We grow our own Seeds, and every possible pains taken, and the strictest attention is paid to have and 
’ supply every item as per Catalogue ; but there are so many always anxious to rush into litigation for the 
sake of compensation for any trifle, and failures which may occur over which perhaps we have no control, that we are 
compelled to issue this notice : — 
CANNELL & SONS give no warranty, express or implied, as to description, quality, productiveness, or any other 
matter, of any Seeds or Bulbs they send out, and they will not be in any way responsible for the Crop. If the purchaser 
does not accept the goods upon these terms they are to be returned. These conditions will be found in all Seed 
Catalogues.
