Notes to Correspondents 
1. Send your orders early, and thus we shall be prepared 
to ship early. 
2. Write your orders plainly on a separate piece of paper 
and not in the body of the letter; state definitely variety, size, 
age and number, and route by which you wish goods to be 
shipped. 
3. Remit by P. O. Order, Kxpress or Draft. 
4. If selection of varieties is left to us we will select 
according to our best judgment and long experience. 
5. In case of any mistake on our part, immediate notice 
should be given so it may be rectified or explained. 
We do not care for orders less than $1.00. 
MISTAKES — As we sometiipes receive a large number of 
orders pei day. mistakes in filling them will sometimes occur. 
We always hold ourselves in readiness to rectify all errors. 
If you should fall to receive your goods in a reasonable time, 
or should anything be missing, then write us and be sure 
and state the exact date you sent the order, the amount of 
money enclosed and how sent, whether by Money Order, Regis- 
tered Letter or Bank Draft, etc. If you send a Money Order 
give the number, date and amount. 
SUBSTITI.'TION— It is our custom, should the supply of 
a variety be exhausted (which will occasionally occur in all 
establishments), to substitute in its stead a similar sort or 
give the value of another grade of the variety nanied. When 
Itis desired that we shall not do this, it must be so stated in 
the order. To simply affix the words “No substitution’’ is all 
that is necessary. 
EARLY ORDERS- A great many of our customers often 
wait until the shipping season opens before sending in their 
o-ders. and it sometimes happens on this account that we are 
liable to fill their orders complete. It is of great importance 
to us and also of much advantage to our patrons that they send 
their orders early, so that we may know as near as possible 
before the season opens what we may be called upon to fur- 
nish,, and it also greatly facilitates our office work. 
Are you familiar with the sorts that do well in your local- 
ity? If not. write us — giving a’titude, character of soil, etc. 
State how cold it gets in winter and any other information 
you can, and we will cheerfully aid you in selecting the sorts 
that will do best for you. With our long experience we can 
be of great serylce to you.
