We take pleasure in presenting herewith our list of Phlox which 1 
think is as complete as it can well be made. 
Some varieties have been eliminated because they have been sup¬ 
planted by better ones, and those better varieties have been added as 
only the best are good enough. 
SHIPPING CONDITIONS 
I WILL SHIP ANYWHERE. PARCEL POST OR EXPRESS. 
Sender will pay cost of shipment, about 10c per dozen to cover cost. 
I try to pack as light as consistent with safe shipping, using 
waterproof paper for wrapping. 
Express charges can be collected on the receiving end. 
Foreign Countries have to apply for shipping permits. Inquire 
at your Post Office for information; this does not apply to seeds. 
I do not ship on credit. 
Please mention how you want your plants shipped. 
For reference as to my responsibility, Dun’s or Bradstreet’s, First 
National Bank, or Chenango Valley Savings Bank, Binghamton, N. Y. 
Remittance: Send money order, or in small amounts send stamps 
in 11/2 or 2 cents. 
Acknowledgment of your order is sent out when received stating 
about when shipment will be made. 
Notice also is sent out when order is shipped and if customers fail 
to receive their order in a reasonable time they should notify me so 
that it can be traced. 
Claims for damages should be made on receipt of goods. 
I aim to send out the best plants obtainable, but in some instances 
varieties will not grow as large as others, hence, there always will be 
variation in size of plants, particularly the reds and crimsons are not 
as strong as the other sorts. 
DIRECTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS 
When plants are received from the nursery, unpack them at once. 
I would say regardless of what condition the roots are in, put them in 
a pail of water for an hour. 
Planting: This should be done in the evening although this is 
not absolutely necessary for the best well-doing. Plant plants 14 
inches in the row and two or three feet between the rows; in bed 
18 inches apart; plant them two or three inches deep, spread out the 
roots so they will do service and give the plant a good start; tramp 
the roots down hard with your feet, this will not be too much. After 
the ground is frozen cover it over with a litter of horse manure, leaves 
or anything else of a similar material and the plants will come through 
all right and start to growing in the Spring and give abundant flowers 
during the following Summer. Remove litter in Spring or soon as 
tops begin to grow.
