EO. COOLING & SONS send all VEGETABLE and FLOWER SEEDS Free by Post 
or Rail. SEED POTATOES, CULINARY ROOTS, MANURES, and GARDEN 
REQUISITES are sent Carriage Free when the Order, including Seeds, amounts 
to 20/- and upwards. 
Customers will much oblige by giving instructions as to best means of forwarding, name of 
nearest Station, &c., to ensure prompt delivery. 
To obviate the necessity of writing the Seed Order in detail, an Order Sheet is enclosed with this 
Catalogue, the quantity required of each variety having only to be mai’ked in the column left for that purpose. 
Care should be taken to always fill in the Name and Address ; during the season many orders reach us un- 
signed, and muoh inconvenience to customers is caused by our being unable to trace the origin of such orders. 
Cheques should be crossed “Union of London and Smiths’ Bank, Ltd.,” and Postal Notes and Orders 
made payable to Geo. Cooling & Sons, Bath. May we ask as a favour that orders for very trifling amounts 
be accompanied by the remittance, the trouble and expense of booking these small sums being great.

Accounts are due without deduction at Midsummer and Christmas. A remittance or reference is respectfully 
requested from those sending their orders for the first time.
