WHEN YOU PLACE YOUR ORDER 
Please read these suggestions. We make every 
WRITE NAME & ADDRESS PLAINLY 
Many delays occur because of insufficient address. 
Print or write your full name carefully [Example: 
John B. Jones, or Miss Bernice M Smith, or Mrs. 
John B. Jones, or Mary C. Jones (Mrs. John B.)] 
We ask this because housewives are apt to give their 
husband’s name and initial one time and their own 
the next, making it difficult to identify correspond¬ 
ence. Then give street address or R.F.D. route, city 
or town, county and State. 
NON-WARRANTY 
We exercise due care in selecting our seed, bulbs, 
flowering and ornamental plants, berry plants, fruit 
and shade trees, and all other merchandise, but we 
give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to de¬ 
scription, quality, productiveness, or any other mat¬ 
ter on any merchandise we sell, and we cannot be 
responsible in any way for the crop or results. 
If the purchaser does not accept the goods on these 
terms, they are at once to be returned. 
EARLY ORDERING APPRECIATED 
If you can anticipate your needs, and place your 
order early, we will appreciate it. We handle a tre¬ 
mendous volume of mail order business during the 
planting seasons. By ordering early you get extra 
special attention.

HOWTO SEND MONEY 
Amounts of $1.00 or less may be sent in stamps, 
preferably in two and three cent denominations. 
If you send currency or silver, be sure to send by 
registered mail. 
Postoffice or Express Money Orders or Bank 
Drafts are equally satisfactory, and need not be reg¬ 
istered. If you send a Cashier’s Check or Bank Draft 
drawn by your home-town bank, have it made pay¬ 
able to yourself and then endorse on the back “Pay¬ 
able to Chas. C. Navlet Co.” This will help to avoid 
possibility of error, and give us a record of whom 
the check is from. 
Please do not overlook adding Sales Tax to the 
amount of your order. Thank you. 
SAFE ARRIVAL ASSURED 
We hold ourselves responsible for the safe arrival 
of goods in first-class condition. Our packing is in 
the hands of experts. If the goods do not arrive in 
first-class condition, kindly return them with the 
wrapper, at our expense and the order will be imme¬ 
diately refilled. 
Visitors Welcome 
Our nursery where we grow thousands upon thou¬ 
sands of shrubs and roses, is located on El Camino 
Real—the old main San Francisco Highway, 1 mile 
south of Sunnyvale. Open Sundays. Our San Jose 
Greenhouses and Salesyard are located at 491 Prevost 
St., San Jose. 
GROUP ORDERS 
Customers have the option of selecting an 
assortment of any plant items in this Catalog, 
whether they be Annuals, Perennials, Bush 
Berries, Carnations, Chrysanthemums, Shrubs, 
etc., to make up a $1.00 order and thus save 
the handling charge. It must be understood, 
however, that the items must be seasonal and 
ready for delivery at one time. Seeds, Garden 
Accessories, Insecticides, Fertilizers, etc., 
must be considered separately—they cannot 
be grouped with plants.
