Catalogue No. 24 
Jan.—June, 1934 
Better Business! 
R EPORTS from all leading industries clearly point to a revival in business. The 
certain influence of trade codes and agreements and the result of necessary or re¬ 
placement buying are becoming definitely effective. The extent to which this 
revival is felt in your greenhouse and mine depends on how well prepared we are with 
attractive stock. Nobody will question that. In the following pages I have tried to 
describe as clearly as possible the value of different varieties. 
Varying demands and growing conditions are responsible for the many preferences your 
seedsman must supply. However, certain kinds are generally satisfactory and I have tried 
to point them out in this catalog through the use of stars *. Such varieties we not only 
find dependable in our own experience but we have the preferences of our many 
customers to guide us in starring these safe varieties. 
I not only look forward to a fairly good season and wish it for you, but I feel that we 
are doing our part toward it by being prepared to furnish good strains of flower seed. 
Business Terms 
DISCLAIMER. I, Geo. J. Ball, give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to 
description, quality, productiveness or any other matter of any seeds I sell and 
I will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not 
accept the seeds on these terms they are at once to be returned, and the money 
paid for same will be refunded. 
DISCOUNTS. When remittance is enclosed with order we allow a cash discount 
of 5% on orders up to $25.00; on this amount or over 8% cash discount is 
allowed. 
CASH WITH ORDER. If unkn own to us or if overdue invoices are standing 
(60 days), cash must be enclosed with order, unless other arrangements are 
agreed upon. 
TO AVOID DELAY. If you have had no previous dealing with us, or have no 
commercial rating, enclose remittance with order or satisfactory trade reference. 
SMALL ORDERS are welcomed gladly and receive prompt and careful attention. 
In return we suggest cash be enclosed to cover the proportionately greater 
cost of handling. 
WE PAY POSTAGE AND INSURANCE on all orders at prices quoted in this 
catalog. This simplifies figuring up your order. 
ADVANCE ORDERS are subject to pro rata delivery in case of crop shortage. 
PLEASE NOTE. Our seed cannot be bought from dealers or agents except in 
our packets. Avoid uncertainty on this point by ordering direct from this 
catalog or our authorized agents. And — “All orders sent us are back in the 
mail the day received.”
