G. D. HOWE’S POTATO MANUAL.

MOW TO SEND MONEY. 
It is not safe to send coin, stamps, or postal notes in ordinary 
letters. While probably a thousand would come through all right, 
one might be tampered with. Do not take the risk, the best ways 
are, to send by bank drafts, P. 0. Money Order, Express Money 
Order, and registered letter. The latter way is a little slow. If 
it is more convenient to send a common personal check than any- 
thing else, 1 will take that, but prefer one of the other methods. 
Have all money papers payable to my order. Do not send a check 
or draft that is not payable to me, with simply your name and 
nothing else endorsed on it as then it is only a little safer than so 
much coin in the letter; but write over your name “pay to the 
order of G. D. Ilowe.” If sending a P. 0. Money Order, have it 
payable at Northampton, Mass. To all those who send by either 
of the first three ways named above, I put in some 10c. premium, 
of my own selection. U. S. postage stamps of any denomination 
taken up to Mar. 15, after which send only one and two cent 
stamps. To those who are to send money loose in the envelope, if 
they will send by postal note instead, I will allow them a 5c. pre- 
mium. No Canada stamps, coin or bills taken.
