"OUR SEEDS GROW FRIENDS” 
We want to thank all our old friends for their wonderful loyalty and the many kind words spoken for our Seeds, Bulb* 
and Plants. To our new friends we wish to thank you for your part in making the past year one of our busiest seasons. 
Suggestions for Ordering 
All varieties of Flower and Vegetable seeds are numbered. 
Our order sheet is arranged to save you the time - and trouble 
of writing the names of the seeds in full. 
If you send your order early the benefit will be mutual. 
You will have your seed on hand when the planting season 
arrives and it will enable jis to get it out before the “please 
rush’’ time arrives. 
Write your name and address distinctly and in full, please 
use the order sheet and envelope inserted in this catalog. 
Abouf Warranting Seeds 
We have often been asked if we “Guarantee or warrant our 
Seeds.” We beg to state plainly, we do not, for the reason 
that practical experience has assured us of the fact that 
crops may fail, no matter how fresh or pure the seed sown 
may be. Contingencies arising beyond our control, such as 
weather conditions, insects, and differences in soil, sometime 
prevent the very best seeds always giving satisfaction. We 
trust that our customers will fully realize that it is to our 
interest to send none but the best quality seeds. 
Seeds by Mail, etc. 
PARCEL POST CHARGES have greatly lowered the cost 
of sending packages by mail. Most customers are no doubt 
familiar with charges from Cincinnati and that it depends 
on the weight of the package and the zone. 
Packets and half pounds only of Beans, Corn, Peas, and all 
other varieties of Vegetable and Flower Seeds will be for¬ 
warded postpaid at catalog prices, unless otherwise noted. 
Grass Seeds, Clover Seeds, Miscellaneous Seeds, Plants, Tools 
and Supplies are not sent free by mail—see Parcel Post Rates. 
With the best of management and good seeds there will be 
an occasional unaccountable failure. The best gardeners some¬ 
times fail, and try again with seeds from the same lot with 
good results. 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to description 
(including kind, variety and name), quality, productiveness, or 
any other matter of any seeds, bulbs, or plants we send out and 
we will not be in any way responsible for the crop.
