TELEGRAPHIC CIPHER OR CABLE CODE 
. FOR WEIGHTS 
The telegraphic cipher word for quantities must always precede the 
cipher word for seeds. In telegraphing us use first the word indicating 
how shipment is to be made: by Mail, Express or Freight, then give 
your quantity code word, followed by the cipher for seed wanted, thus: 
“Mail Abduct Squeeze Abate Caballer,” would mean mail at once 
five pounds Improved Hubbard Squash and two pounds All Head Early 
Cabbage. “Express Able Pulpit freight Active Peak,” would mean 
to express at once ten pounds Winter Luxury Pumpkin and ship by freight 
250 pounds Little Marvel Peas. Where the same quantity is wanted of 
several items use the word ditto, thus: “Express Abide Raging ditto 
Radius Raccoon Rambling, *V which we would understand meant to 
express you at once eight pounds each of these Radishes: Sparkler White 
Tip, Rice’s Saxa, Early Scarlet Turnip and Icicle. 
Our customers will find this a very inexpensive way of wiring their 
orders, but we must caution them that care be taken in writing out the 
messages, as we cannot hold ourselves responsible for errors arising from 
incomplete messages or incorrect translation. 
IMPORTANT.—This telegraphic cipher must be used ONLY on 
orders by telegraph or cable, and never in written orders sent by mail.
