“‘Prompt Service” Is a Kilgore Motto Which Has Been in Practice for Over Twenty-five Years 
Important Directions to Customers 
By carefully observing the following directions, mistakes and 
misunderstandings tcill he very largely avoided. 
How to Order 
Please be careful to sign your name, box number, street or 
rural route, post office and State on every order. Be sure to 
tell us your, nearest express or freight office should you desire 
the seed forwarded by express or freight. Please write plainly. 
Cash With Order 
Ours is a cash business and our prices are made on that 
basis. Customers are requested to remit when ordering and by 
so doing save the C. O. D. fee charged by express companies, 
banks, and postal authorities for collecting and returning money. 
C. O. D. 
Perishable items such as strawberry plants, rose bushes, nur- 
ery stock, etc., are not sent C. O. D. under any circumstances. 
How to Send Money 
Remittances should be made by post-office money orders, 
express money orders, drafts or checks. 
Remittance by Stamps 
On orders for seeds where the amount is less than 50 cents, 
we will accept stamps in good condition the same as cash, but 
we would ask those remitting stamps to wrap them in oiled pa¬ 
per, if possible, to prevent their sticking together or to the order.

Prices Subject to Change 
This Catalog is printed in June and July. The market on 
many items of garden and field seeds, as well as supplies, has 
not yet been fully established. Consequently, prices on these 
items indicate value at time these pages are printed. In prac¬ 
tically all case's orders will be filled at prices indicated in this 
Catalog, but all prices are subject to change without notice. 
Seeds Postpaid by Parcel Post

clude delivery on all seeds to any point in Florida and other 
southern states. 
All Deliveries Outside the United States are made

Non-Warranty 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to description, 
quality, productiveness, or any other matter of any seeds or 
bulbs we sell, and we will not be responsible for the crop. 
No reputable seedsman gives any warranty. We test our 
seeds for germination and trueness to type before we send them 
to our customers. We have the fullest confidence in the qual¬ 
ity of all the seeds we sell but we have no control over them 
after they leave our hands. Satisfactory germination and pro¬ 
duction are dependent upon many factors other than the quality 
of the seed, such as methods of planting, cultivating, and fer¬ 
tilizing. If we should warrant or guarantee seeds in any way, 
we could be held responsible for the failure of the crop, regard¬ 
less of cause; a responsibility we cannot accept. 
No Seeds Returned 
For your protection we will not permit seeds to be returned, 
unless mistake was made in filling order. No customer would 
want to plant seeds that had been returned, nor would we feel 
safe in filling an order with returned seed. This is one reason 
we have never followed the policy of putting out our seeds with 
dealers. Our seeds are never out of our hands until they are 
sold to you direct through our mail-order department or through 
one of our own stores or agencies. 
Order Early 
The demand for our “Bred-Rite” brands of seeds is so great 
that each year we find ourselves completely sold out on many 
items before the season is over. Therefore, it behooves our 
friends to order or book their season’s requirements early so as 
to be sure of being able to secure their supply of our high- 
quality seeds. It will also greatly facilitate shipments if orders 
are sent in early. We aim to ship all orders the same day they 
are received, but sometimes it is impossible during the rush 
season. 
For Your Convenience 
Two order blanks are placed in this Catalog for your conven¬ 
ience, one inside the front cover and another inside the back 
cover. A second order during the season is frequently neces¬ 
sary. Additional order blanks furnished upon request. 
Postal Information 
PARCEL-POST RATES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES 
New postal rates went into effect on October 1, 1932. The 
weight limit for all zones is 70 pounds. 
From the Fourth to the Eighth Zone, shipments weighing 10 
pounds or more usually go as cheaply by express. Any weight 
up to 40 pounds in the first and second zones and 22 pounds in 
the third zone will usually go just as cheaply by parcel post as 
by freight or express. 
In many sections of Florida that are not easily accessible by 
freight or express, parcel-post service will be found not only far 
more satisfactory, but more economical. If you are on a rural 
route, delivery will be made to your door by mail. 
Most Florida points are in the First or Second Zone; however, 
Jacksonville north. Live Oak north and west, and points on the 
East. Coast south of Delray are in the Third Zone.

ditional pound over 2 pounds add lc per pound.

When you order your seeds to come by express or freight 
we can send them collect, so you may pay the transportation 
charges on delivery. When ordering your seeds to be shipped 
by express or freight, always give your express or freight sta¬ 
tion, if it is not the same as your post-office. If your order is 
to be sent parcel-post, the postage must be paid in advance if 
the items ordered are not indicated as “postpaid” in this cata¬ 
log, and you must send us the amount of postage in addition 
to the cost of the seeds. Do not have your order delayed or re¬ 
duced by failing to add necessary postage. It will be found 
plainly stated above each item whether or not it is postpaid.
