IMPORTANT TO CUSTOMERS 
PLEASE NOTICE 
Orders at prices in this catalog 
will be filled only for those engaged 
in the florist, landscape gardening 
and market gardening business, or 
others entitled to such prices. We 
reserve the right to refuse to fill 
orders for others not entitled to 
these prices. 
As a protection to our customers 
who are entitled to wholesale or 
florists* prices we ask that they do 
not lend this catalog to persons not 
entitled thereto. It will save us 
considerable embarrassment. Tell 
them to send for our “Seed Book” 
— Free upon request.

lV£c. for each two (2) ounces or fraction

If Special Delivery is wanted an additional 15c. is required on packages weigh¬ 
ing up to two (2) pounds — 25c. on packages weighing more than two (2) pounds 
and up to ten (10) pounds — 35c. on packages weighing more than ten (10) pounds, 
which also includes special handling and transportation as first-class mail. 
If remittance accompanies order, a sufficient amount should be included to

We do not make shipments of Plants or Cold Storage Bulbs C. O. D. and ship¬ 
ments of goods C. O. D. outside of our automobile delivery limits can only be 
made that way provided a partial remittance is sent with the order to guarantee 
that the goods will be accepted on arrival. 
IMPORTANT NOTICE. —All shipments of plants, perishable stock and cold 
storage bulbs are made at buyer’s risk only. 
If such shipments arrive in bad condition, accept them and receipt for them 
accordingly, and make claim for your loss on the transportation company. We, 
of course, will hold ourselves ready to assist you in any possible way. It has 
been found that claims can be collected more readily by the person receiving the 
goods than by the shipper. 
Our custom to guarantee the actual arrival of goods (except at points where 
there is no freight or express agent) will still be continued, and claims for loss or 
non-arrival of merchandise not perish¬ 
able will, as in the past, be cared for by 
us, so you run no risk of having to make 
claims for lost goods. 
WE WELCOME CHARGE ACCOUNTS 
We invite you to take advantage of a 
charge account with us. So that no time 
will be lost in executing your first order, 
please refer preferably to someone in either 
your own or our line of business with whom you have a charge account. This 
frequently saves delay.
