INFORMATION FOR CUSTOMERS 
Keith’s Discount 
To 
Their “Old” Customers 
To all our “old” customers, those who have 
ever ordered fruit plants from us, we allow a 
cash discount on any cash order of $2.50 or 
more of fruit plants listed in our OFFICIAL 
PRICE LIST on page 23, or on any of our 
SPECIAL Strawberry Combination Offers 
including our “Ready-made Strawberry Gar¬ 
dens.” 
If you order more than one Special Combina¬ 
tion or more than one kind of fruit plants 
listed in Official Price List on page 23, add 
the cost of all of them together and take out 
the cash discount you are entitled to, and 
which we are happy to allow you as one 
of our “old” customers. It pays to be one 
of Keith’s many customers.

KEITH TRIES TO MAKE IT WORTH 
WHILE FOR YOU TO BE A 
KEITH CUSTOMER 
PARCEL POST 
Most shipments will come as cheap by Parcel 
Post as by Express in States in Group No. 1 
if the package does not weigh over 12 lbs. 
(about 300 strawberry plants). The same 
shipment into States in Group No. 2, 3 or 4 
would come as cheap by Express. A pretty 
good rule to follow is to consult the “Parcel 
Post Table” and if your postage is much over 
35c for 300 strawberry plants, Express for a 
straight strawberry shipment would be 
cheaper. The small shipments of strawberry 
plants (around 100 plants) will come cheaper 
by Parcel Post. 
Express Shipments 
This year the Express Co. is allowing a 
cheaper rate on straight strawberry ship¬ 
ments, and we find it cheaper than by Parcel 
Post on shipments weighing around 12 lbs. 
or more (300 plants or more). If you are 
living in States in Groups 2, 3, or 4 and your 
postage on a straight strawberry shipment 
conies to more than 35c by Parcel Post, I 
feel certain that the cheaper way would be 
by Express, and it would certainly be the 
safer and best way, because all Express ship¬ 
ments are insured against loss or damage, and 
they do not have to travel in closed, in many 
cases, hot mail bags. I always feel more cer¬ 
tain that the shipment will reach customers 
in a better condition when sent by Express, 
whether strawberry plants or other nursery 
stock, and where it is convenient to have the 
shipment come that way, I think it best. Of 
course Parcel Post in many cases is more 
convenient for the customer, and where it is, 
and he cares to pay a little more to have the 
plants come that way and be delivered right 
to his door, Parcel Post might be the better 
way. Express shipments are always insured. 
This would cost 17c extra by Parcel Post.

Safe Arrival, Damage, Loss. 
We Guarantee safe arrival, but do not hold ourselves responsible 
for negligence, delay, loss, or rough handling on part of trans¬

receipt of package, signed statement from Express Agent or Postmaster showing loss or damage. Parcel Post ship¬ 
ments must be insured if you wish to recover loss from package being lost. We do not guarantee safe arrival of 
plants into foreign countries. Raspberry and other cane plants travel at customer’s risk if ordered shipped in the 
Spring after May 1st—Strawberry plants after May 15th. 
RpmiftailPP Make remittance in Post Office or Express Money Order, Bank Draft, personal check. If 
cash is sent, register your letter—it’s safer. Owing to scarcity of plants and the great 
demand it’s best to remit in full at time of ordering. If not possible to remit in full send at least half and bal¬ 
ance week before shipment is made.

Keith’s Two-Variety Combinations 
in 
Strawberries 
In our strawberry fields where two varieties are grown in blocks side 
by side, the runners, or vines, from one variety often grow across into 
the row of the adjacent variety. These two adjacent rows have to be dug 
together because they are mixed with each others’ plants, and these plants 
are listed as our “Two-variety Combination.” For instance, where a 
Gibson row and Blakemore 
are grown side by side, PRICES 
the plants are dug to 
make a “Gibson-Blake- 
more” Combination and 
contain plants in these 
two varieties only. Note 
the “Two-variety Com¬ 
binations” offered in list 
at right. 
These Combinations are 
in much demand with our 
customers and afford a 
saving for you. Give 
Comb. No. and names of 
varieties.

POSITIVELY 
NOT a poison— 
won’t even kill a 
baby chick. But 
will rid your place 
of rats when used 
as directed. Rats 
like this killer, the 
flavor attracts 
them. Mix killer 
with food rats 
like and eat and 
its flavor lures 
them. 
No. 1A GRADE SUPER¬ 
MASTODON PLANTS 
Those who wish our No. 1-A Grade of strawberry 
plants can secure them at very little extra cost. 
We list two grades of strawberry plants again 
this year—Grade No. 1 and Grade No. 1-A. Those 
desiring the No. 1-A Grade should get their orders 
in early for we always sell out on this grade before 
the end of the season. Those ordering this grade 
after April 15th should give us the privilege of sup¬ 
plying the No. 1 Grade should we be sold out on the 
No. 1-A Grade. By doing so it will prevent delay 
in getting your plants to you should we not have, the 
Grade No. 1-A for you. Please instruct us in this 
regard, otherwise we will assume this responsibility.
