ORDERING

fice, express office, or freight office address. Order early 
and write plainly. 
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 
Orders acknowledged same day received and shipped as 
per your instructions. 
SHIPMENT 
Begins about the first of March and lasts until May 15. 
We can ship your order any time you state in your letter, 
weather being favorable. We recommend parcel post as the 
most desirable method of shipment for small orders and ex¬ 
press for larger orders. Raspberry, blackberry, and other 
heavy plants can be shipped safely by freight early in the 
season. However, all freight shipments go at customer’s 
risk. On late shipments, we advise to ship by express or 
parcel post. 
PARCEL POST 
Strawberry plants can be sent by parcel post. Trans¬ 
portation charges are paid by the customer on receipt of 
stock. Through our many years’ experience in shipping 
nursery stock we find this method most satisfactory to 
customer and shipper. You pay the charges; C. O. D., thus 
you pay only your exact charges. If flat transportation 
charge was made, customers living 300 miles from us would 
have to share the charges for those living 2000 miles away. 
Parcels marked C. O. D. for delivery charges receive special 
attention of postal clerks and are automatically insured. If 
your parcel or any part of the contents is lost or damaged, 
you may notify us at once and we will make adjustment. 
TERMS 
We will book all orders when one-fourth cash accompan¬ 
ies the order. On One to Five-Doliar orders, cash before 
order is shipped. On larger orders cash before stock is 
shipped if convenient, if not, we will ship C. O. D. for bal¬ 
ance. Packing free. 
REMITTANCE 
Send Express or Post Office Money Order, Draft or Regis¬ 
tered Letter; checks from responsible persons are also ac¬ 
cepted. Please do not send stamps. 
CLAIMS 
We consider that you know what you want and fill your 
order accordingly, never substituting without permission. 
When ordering late in the season, state second choice. In 
case of error all claims must be made within 5 days after 
goods are received.
