Explanation of Signs 
C. S. -—- Clean Seed 
D. B. — Dried Berries 
Soft shelled seeds such as Acorns ( Quer- 
cus ), Chestnuts ( Castanea ), Horsechestnuts 
( Aesculus ), can he ivarehoused over the 
winter by seedsmen only if expensive methods 
of temperature and humidity control are used. 
The cost of such would increase the price of 
the seed beyond its commercial value. We , 
therefore, aim to deliver in time to permit 
you to get the seed underground before freez¬ 
ing weather sets in if you order early. Exotic 
varieties often arrive too late. They should 
be stored in slightly moist sand to prevent 
evaporation.
