Terms and Conditions 
of Delivery 
All seeds are offered F. O. B. Santa Maria, California, for delivery 
from 1939 Crop as soon as possible after harvest. Invoices are subject 
to a discount of 2% for cash in 30 days or 60 days net. All foreign invoices 
are payable in U. S. dollars at the current rate of exchange. All overdue 
accounts are subject to a sight draft without further notice. 
We agree to plant sufficient land under normal conditions to pro¬ 
duce the quantity of seed ordered; however, crop failure or any other 
cause beyond our control releases us from delivery and in the event of 
shortages, we will fill pro-rata only. 
Unless otherwise specified on your orders, all shipments will be 
forwarded via the most economical method of rail transportation. Parcel 
Post and Express packages will reach Chicago on the fourth day or New 
York in five days from Santa Maria. Air-mail arrives here on the second 
day from nearly any point and is the easiest way to save two days time 
on your next rush order. All freight shipments will be routed over the 
most direct line to your city. 
Bags and containers will be charged at cost and are not returnable. 
Kraft paper packets less than the one pound size will be supplied gratis.

than four ounces at the ounce price. 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to purity, description, 
(including kind, variety and name), productiveness, or any other matter of 
any seed we send out, and we 
will be in no way responsible 
for them.
