YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS —Be very sure that your 
name and address in full are written very plainly on every 
order or letter sent us. 
CASH WITH ORDER —The proper way is to send re¬ 
mittance in full to cover order and postage. We send orders 
C. O. D. only if 25% of the amount of order is enclosed. 
Plants we never send C. O. D. 
REMITTANCES should be made by Post Office Money 
Order, Express Money Order, or by Bank Draft on Sacra¬ 
mento. For amounts up to one dollar, clean, unused post¬ 
age stamps will be accepted. Coin should not be sent by 
mail. Checks on local banks may be sent, which will be a 
great convenience to many customers. 
NON-WARRANTY — Most of the failures with seeds, 
plants and bulbs are due to causes beyond our control, 
such as unfavorable weather or soil conditions, too deep 
or too shallow planting, etc., which render it impossible 
for us to guarantee success. Although we take all possible 
care to supply only such goods as will, under proper con¬ 
ditions, produce satisfactory results, we still give no war¬ 
ranty as to description, quality, or productiveness of any 
of the seeds, plants or bulbs we send out, and will not be 
in any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser 
does not accept the goods on these terms they are at once 
to be returned.
