CONDITIONS AND TERMS OF SALE 
Foreign Customers — Remit by Postal Money 
Orders from foreign countries. Personal checks not 
accepted. 
Canadian Customers —In accordance with the rul¬ 
ing governing the importation of Nursery Stock 
from the United States into Canada, it will be neces¬ 
sary to obtain a permit from the Secretary of the 
Destructive Insect and Pest Act Advisory Board, 
Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, and file same 
with the Collector of Customs before shipment can 
be cleared. Seeds are exempt from this ruling, and 
may be shipped into Canada without a permit. Gladi¬ 
olus bulbs come under the classification of Nursery 
Stock. 
This ruling must be complied with in order to 
make delivery and we ask you, in the event of an 
order, to secure this permit, advising us of the num¬ 
ber of same, that we may mark it on the outside 
wrapper. 
Prices: The prices quoted herein are our very 
lowest current prices. They cancel all previous quo¬ 
tations made either by letter or advertisements. 
Guarantee: I exercise every care to ship only 
first-class stock but give no warranty, expressed or 
implied, and will not be in any way responsible for 
the results of planting or forcing of any seeds, bulbs, 
roots or tubers sent out by me. 
To satisfy my customers in every way has been 
my first aim. Bulbs found not true to name should 
De retained by the customer and I shall replace num¬ 
ber that are untrue, free of charge. No planting 
stock or bulblets will be included in this case. 
If you have any complaints to make about any 
stock received from me, please do not hesitate to do 
so and I shall correct any error. I do not consider 
our transaction complete until you are absolutely 
satisfied. 
Postage: We prepay postage anywhere in the 
United States and Canada on orders amounting to 
$2.00 and over on Gladiolus bulbs. On orders of 
Gladiolus bulbs amounting to less than $2.00, add 
25 cents to cover postage. Orders for plants and 
Amaryllis bulbs will be sent Express Collect. 
Terms: Cash with Order. Remit by bank draft, 
express or postal money orders. Canadian customers 
please remit by postal money orders. Do not remit by 
personal checks. Positively no C. O. D. orders accepted. 
Unused U. S. postage stamps accepted up to the 
amount of fifty cents. 
Season: My season for bulb shipping takes place 
from October 1 to May 1. 
Write your address plainly, as I had orders last 
year which I was unable to get into the hands of the 
purchaser. If your handwriting is poor, please print 
your address. 
Order Early: All orders are filled promptly the 
day they come in or the day after. If you do not 
receive your order in two weeks, please notify us 
promptly as there have been occasions where people 
sent orders which we did not receive. In such a case 
please repeat the order so an immediate replacement 
of goods can be made. 
Order your Petunia and Dahlia seeds or bulbs 
early as they might easily be damaged if carried 
around by the postman in zero weather and exposed 
to frost for hours. 
Substitution: In the latter part of the season we 
may be out of some varieties, so please give your 
second choice. In case no substitution is desired, 
please so advise in your order. 
Packing: Through years of experience I have 
worked out the most satisfactory method of packing 
seeds and bulbs and there is very little possibility of 
damaging them in transit, either by frost or moisture.
