“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 will be 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, nurs¬ 
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, ex¬ 
press 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 paper, if 
possible, to prevent their sticking together or to the order. 
Export Shipments to Cuba, the West Indies, and 
Foreign Countries 
For the convenience of our customers in the West Indies we 
have established the following agencies: M. J. Diaz y Cia, 
Muralla 75, Havana, Cuba; Mr. A. C. Kopf, Neuva Gerona, Isle 
of Pines; Mr. F. C. Albury, Nassau, Bahamas; Mr. J. P. Klein, 
321 Ochoa Bldg., San Juan, Puerto Rico; Mr. Leslie R. Mordecai, 
158 Harbour St., Kingston, Jamacia. These agents carry a full 
line of Kilgore’s seeds during the season. 
Seeds Postpaid by Parcel Post 
Please bear in mind that the postpaid prices in this Catalog 
include delivery to any point in Florida or other southern states. 
All Deliveries Outside the Continental United States are 
made F. O. B. Plant City, Florida 
Prices Subject to Change 
This Catalog is printed in October and November. 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 practi¬ 
cally all cases orders will be filled at prices indicated in this 
Catalog, but all prices are subject to change without notice. 
Non-Warranty 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to description, 
quality, productiveness, or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs 
or, plants 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 quality of all 
the seeds we sell but we have no control over them after they 
leave our hands. Satisfactory germination and production are 
dependent upon many factors other than the quality of the seed, 
such as methods of planting, cultivating, and fertilizing. If we 
should warrant or guarantee seeds in any way, we could be held 
responsible for the failure of the crop, regardless 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. 
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. 
First and second zone, first pound 8c, 2 pounds 10c, each ad¬ 
ditional pound over 2 pounds add lc per pound. 
First lb. Each Additional lb. 
Third Zone. 9 cts. 2 cts. 
Fourth Zone. 10 cts. 3.5 cts. 
Fifth Zone. 11 cts. 5.3 cts.

If in doubt about your zone rate, obtain it from your post¬ 
master and be sure to send enough to cover necessary postage. 
If you send too much, it will be returned to you. 
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 station, 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 catalog, and you must 
send us the amount of postage in addition to the cost of the seeds. 
Do not have your order delayed or reduced by failing to add 
necessary postage. It will be found plainly stated above each 
item whether or not it is postpaid.
