INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING 
Packing. No charges made for packing retail orders going 
to any part of the United States. We pack stock as lightly 
as possible, consistent, of course, with the distance it must 
travel. We assume no responsibility for the safe arrival of 
goods after they have been accepted by the carriers and 
found to be in good order. 
Export Shipments. Charges are made covering cost of 
materials used in export packing. We also arrange at cus¬ 
tomers’ expense when necessary for drayage, insurance, 
consular invoices, etc. Particular care is exercised in export 
packing and customers are assured that stocked shipped by 
us will arrive in good condition. 
Inspection. Points of terminal inspection in several counties 
have been recently reduced in numbers, which may cause 
some delays in the deliveries of shipments. If the nearest 
point of inspection is mentioned in ordering we will gladly 
make shipment in care of your agricultural inspector with 
instructions to re-forward after inspection. This will greatly 
expedite delivery. 
Errors. If any mistakes are made in filling orders we will 
cheerfully rectify them, but must respectfully request our 
customers to notify us within ten days after receipt of the 
goods. 
Prices. Unless otherwise noted are for stock delivered at 
the postoffice, express or freight depot in Niles. Prices are 
subject to change without notice. 
Remittances. All of our stock is sold for cash unless other 
arrangements are made. No order will be sent C. O. D. 
unless accompanied by one-quarter the amount of the order. 
On mail orders for less than $1.00 a 25c handling charge 
will be made. 
Sales Tax. When remitting, customers must add to their 
orders the following amounts for 
STATE SALES TAX: Orders from 15 to 49 cents, 1 cent tax; 
50 cents to 83 cents, 2 cents tax; 84 cents to $1.16, 3 cents 
tax; $1.17 to $1.49, 4 cents tax; $1.50 to $1.83, 5 cents tax. 
For each $1.00 thereafter, 3 cents additional tax. 
Auto Truck Delivery. We are in a position to make deliveries 
by truck to many parts of California. Charges for such 
services will be made as reasonable as possible. The ad¬ 
vantage to our customers is that the cost of boxing, freight 
and cartage is saved, and in addition to this much more 
prompt delivery is assured at destination without the cost 
of re-handling. 
Orders amounting to $5.00 or more will be delivered to 
points within a radius of 30 miles from Niles without charge 
if deliveries are made at our convenience. On orders for less 
than $5.00 a delivery charge of 50c will be made. 
GUARANTEE. The California Nursery Company will ex¬ 
ercise care to have all stock true to name; nevertheless, 
it is understood and agreed that should any stock prove 
untrue to name, the California Nursery Company shall be 
liable only for the sum paid for the stock which may prove 
untrue, and shall not be liable for any greater amount.
