TERMS OF SALE 
TERMS OF SALE: Cash or C. O. D. or 20% cash with order and balance before 
shipment. Orders not paid by April 15, will be shipped C. O. D. for balance due. 
These terms apply to all quotations and to all other price lists that we issue. These 
quotations cancel all previous price quotations. Bulbs sold subject to prior sale 
and all conditions beyond our control. 
DISCOUNTS FOR PREPAID PRICES 
We have discontinued all credit selling and all our terms are now as stated in 
Terms of Sale. By selling for cash only we can maintain lower average prices, in 
particular the medium and small sizes, where our supply of stock is much larger. 
DISCOUNTS from this catalogue for all prepaid price items will average from 
10 to 25% and up, in extra bulbs of the varieties you order where the order calls 
for one or two of a kind. We add this extra in larger sizes or perhaps extra bulbs of 
some of the items ordered. 
DISCOUNT EXTRAS 
DISCOUNT EXTRAS will depend largely on the price of the items you order. 
High and moderately high priced items receive a much larger discount than do the 
lower priced bulbs on which the profit margin is often very low. Ten large bulbs 
that sell for 50 cents will weigh, when properly packed against freezing, about two 
pounds. This will cost twenty-five cents postage to zone eight—just one half the 
price of the item and this is exclusive of the cost of the packing materials, bags, 
boxes, labels, etc. Where your order consists largely of the low priced items the 
discount extras will not be as large as with higher priced items. As a rule all orders 
under ten dollars get a 10% discount in extra count, however, if items are moder¬ 
ately high priced you get a much higher discount, even in orders under ten dollars. 
Orders over ten dollars receive from 15 to 25% and up, all depending on conditions 
as stated. If you will study some of the photographs we print in this catalogue you 
will understand why we can give you as much as any other grower. In addition to 
the regular discount extras we make it a rule to give valuable bulbs of our selection 
with the larger orders. 
THE SIX STANDARD SIZES 
THE SIX STANDARD SIZES ARE: No. 1 1 y 2 " up, No. 2 1*4 to 1V 2 ", No. 3 
1" to lii", No. 4 %" to 1", No. 5 i/ 2 " to %" and No. 6 14 " to y 2 ". 
Bulbs smaller than % " inch diameter are often sold as # 7 size and sometimes sold 
with the bulblets, but our rule is to pick all small bulbs from the bulblets and sell 
bulbets free of small bulbs. Bulblets vary in size, some varieties are quite small and 
a quart will contain 8 to 10,000 or more; while others may average so large in size 
that a quart will contain about 2000, however, the general average of most varieties 
is approximately 5 to 6 thousand to the quart. 
FOREIGN ORDERS including Canadian orders are not prepaid at the low 
prepaid prices as quoted here, however, where customers order high priced stock 
we will prepay where large size bulbs of the variety ordered are quoted at 10c each 
or more. We will not prepay lower quotations. If lower priced bulbs are included 
add enough extra to total about 14 cents for each lb. of bulbs at the lower quotation.
