Terms and Manner in Which We Do Business 
TERMS. Prices named herein are subject to the following discounts: Five per cent, allowed, to be 
deducted when cash accompanies order. To customers of approved credit, accounts are payable 60 days from 
date of invoice, except where special prices and terms are arranged for. Grass, Grain, Clover and Bird Seed, 
Implements, Fertilizers and Insecticides are subject to no discount whatever, but are strictly net cash. 
ORDERS are filled promptly upon receipt or a reason given with acknowledgment of same. 
PRICES. As it is impossible to predict our exact demand, our prices are made subject to change with¬ 
out notice, and goods being unsold when order reaches us. We, however, carry very large stocks, and if 
orders reach us in good season, full satisfaction may always be expected. 
C. O. D. orders can be sent only by express. Such orders should be accompanied by a remittance in 
part payment, to guarantee charges.

20 Per Cent. Reduction in Express Rates 
Under the new ruling of the leading express 
companies, Plants, Bulbs and Seeds, packed 
in closed boxes or baskets, will now be carried at the “ GENERAL SPECIALS ” rate. This rate means 
a reduction of 20 per cent, from the regular merchandise rates to all points where no “ General 
Specials” exists. To points where a “ General Specials” rate is in force, the companies make a 
special reduction. Shipments weighing less than 100 lbs. receive the benefit of the rate per 100 lbs., but 
the minimum charge is 35c. For instance, where the regular merchandise rate is $4.00 per 100 lbs., 
a box of plants or bulbs weighing 100 lbs. will be carried for $3.20, a saving of 80 cts. on one shipment.

not give any warranty, express or implied. If the purchaser does not accept the seeds and bulbs on these 
terms and conditions, they must be returned at once, and the money that has been paid for same will be 
refunded.
