SEEDS, ETC., BY 
PARCEL POST - 
The prices in this 
catalogue do not in¬ 
clude postage, except 
on vegetable and 
flower seeds by the 
packet, ounce or 
quarter-pound and 
single pound. Larger 
amounts according to 
zone rates (see table 
below). When allow¬ 
ing for postage make 
allowance for pack¬ 
ing, as one pound 
packed ready to mail 
weighs more than 
one pound and 
counts as two pounds 
according to postal 
rules, which state “a 
fraction of a pound 
being computed as a 
full pound.” Poisons 
cannot be sent by 
mail without special 
packing. 
Zone 1 or 2, up to 150 miles, First lb., 8c., ea. add. lb. P/iOc, 
1 EXPRESS 
SHIPMENTS 
There is a special 
express rate on seeds 
of 25 per cent less 
than the regular 
rates. Express is 
more desirable in most cases for packages weighing 20 pounds or more, according to local conditions. 
Liquids and poisons should be ordered sent by express or freight, as poisons are not mailable 
without special packing. 
FREIGHT SHIPMENTS 
Should be used when possible on heavy goods. The saving will be considerable. Order early 
and allow ample time. 
TERMS CASH WITH ORDER 
Accounts cannot be opened for small amounts. Persons wishing to open accounts must furnish 
satisfactory references, and allow time for investigation before shipment can be made. 
BAGS 
As a rule seeds are best shipped in strong cotton sacks holding up to two and one-half bushels 
each, and must be charged for at market price; present charge, 30 cents each. Burlap bags, 10c. each, 
are unsuitable for grass and other fine seeds. 
WRITE ADDRESS PLAINLY 
Write your Name, Post-Office and State plainly and in full on every letter. When Express or 
Freight Office is different from Post-Office, advise us of the same. 
SEEDS, ETC., BY WEIGHT OR MEASURE 
Quarter-pound and one-quarter bushel will be charged at slight advance above pound and bushel 
rates—5 pounds at the 10-pound rate; 25 pounds at the 100-pound rate. Prices subject to market 
and changes without notice. 
ABOUT WARRANTING SEEDS
