We submit herewith price list of Vegetable Seeds, together with brief 
descriptions of the varieties listed. We only list such varieties as are com¬ 
monly planted in the interior valleys of California. All these items have 
been proven suitable to our climatic conditions and are satisfactory for the 
market or home garden. We carry in stock many types and varieties of 
Vegetable Seeds other than those listed and we will be pleased to receive 
your inquiries on any you may require. 
An average ripening period for each type or variety has been given but 
this will not be correct in every case as moisture and climatic conditions 
will hasten or retard the maturity of a crop. The variations in time of 
ripening between the early and late types of any given variety will, how¬ 
ever, be nearly correct. 
If you are living close to Sacramento we can supply you with seeds 
from either of our local stores. Seed dealers in other towns and cities of 
the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys carry in stock or can secure our 
seeds. Patronize your local merchant when possible; you will save time 
and you help support a local institution. 
We will prepay postal or express charges on all lots of seed up to 10 
pounds to all points within the 3rd Postal Zone of Sacramento, which is a 
radius of 300 miles. In mailing seed orders in California be sure to add the 
state sales tax to the amount of your remittance. 
Seed stocks are fairly short this season. We have ample supplies at this 
time but with a brisk Spring demand expect to sell out early on many items. 
Prices quoted are therefore subject to change and stocks being unsold. 
We use every care possible in the growing or selection of seed which we 
sell. Conditions of weather and soil, which adversely affects the germination 
of seeds are beyond our control and we can therefore give no warranty 
express or implied as to description, quality, productiveness or any other 
matter of seeds, plants or bulbs we sent and will be in no wav responsible 
for the crop.
