IMPORTANT DIRECTIONS TO CUSTOMERS 
By carefully observing the following directions, mistakes and misunderstandings will be very largely avoided. 
How to Order 
Please be careful to sign your name, box number, street 
or rural route, post office and State on every order. Be 
sure to tell us your nearest express or freight office should 
you desire the seed forwarded by express or freight. Please 
write plainly. 
Cash With Order 
Ours is a cash business and our prices are made on that 
basis. Customers are requested to remit when ordering and 
by so doing save the C.O.D. fee charged by express com¬ 
panies, banks, and postal authorities for collecting and re¬ 
turning money. 
C. O. D. 
Perishable items such as strawberry plants, rose bushes, 
nursery stock, etc., are not sent C.O.D. under any circum¬ 
stances. 
How to Send Money 
Remittances should be made by post-office money orders, 
express money orders, drafts or checks. 
Remittance by Stamps 
On orders for seeds where the amount is less than 50 
cents, we will accept stamps in good condition the same as 
cash, but we would ask those remitting stamps to wrap 
them in oiled paper, if possible, to prevent their sticking 
together or to the order. 
Export Shipments to Cuba, the West Indies, and 
Foreign Countries 
For the convenience of our customers in the West Indies 
we have established the following agencies: M. J. Diaz y 
Cia, Muralla 75, Havana, Cuba; Mr. A. C. Kopf, Nueva 
Gerona, Isle of Pines; Mr. F. C. Albury, Nassau, Bahamas; 
Nitrate Agencies Company, P. O. Box 1413, San Juan, 
Puerto Rico; Mr. Benigno Perez Martinez, P. O. Box 216, 
Luperon No. 9, Ciudad Trujillo, Dominican Republic; Mr. 
Leslie R. Mordecai, 158 Harbour St., Kingston, Jamaica; 
Mr. Jean Comhaire, Port au Prince, Haiti. These agents 
carry a full line of Kilgore’s seeds during the season, at 
prices indicated in this catalog, with the exception of pack¬ 
ets, where local prices will prevail. 
For direct deliveries outside the continental United 
States, all prices quoted as “Postpaid” in this catalog are 
on an f.o.b. Plant City, Florida, basis, and the proper 
amount for postage must be added to the cost of the seeds. 
Parcel-Post Rates to Cuba and the West Indies 
The parcel-post rate to Cuba and all other points in the 
West Indies is 14 cents for each pound or fraction thereof. 
If the net weight of an order is 1 pound or more, 1 pound 
must always be added to cover weight after being packed 
for shipment. Packages of merchandise weighing 8 ounces 
or less are subject to the postage rate of 1 y 2 cents for each 
2 ounces or fraction of 2 ounces. 
We Pay Postage to Points in Florida 
Please bear in mind that the postpaid prices indicated in 
this catalog include delivery to any point in Florida or 
other southern states. 
Prices Subject to Change 
This catalog is printed in October and November. The 
market on many items of garden and field seeds, as well as 
supplies, has not yet been fully established. Consequently, 
prices on thse items indicate value at time these pages are 
printed. In practically all cases orders will be 1 filled at 
prices indicated in this catalog, but all prices ar* subject 
to change without notice. 
Non-Warranty 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to descrip¬ 
tion, quality, productiveness, or any other matter of any 
seeds, bulbs or plants we sell, and we will not be responsi¬ 
ble for the crop. 
We test our seeds for germination before we send them 
to our customers. We have the fullest confidence in the 
quality of all the seeds we sell but we have no control over 
them after they leave our hands. Satisfactory germination 
and production are dependent upon many factors other than 
the quality of the seed, such as methods of planting, culti¬ 
vating, and fertilizing. 
No Seeds Returned 
For your protection, we will not permit seeds to be re¬ 
turned. If we have made a mistake in filling your order, 
do not return seeds, but communicate with us, and we will 
cheerfully make corrections without any expense to you. 
No customer would want to plant seeds that had been re¬ 
turned, nor would we feel safe in filling an order with re¬ 
turned seed. This is one reason we have never followed 
the policy of putting out our seeds with dealers. Our 
seeds are never out of our hands until they are sold to you 
direct through our mail-order department or through one 
of our own stores or agencies. 
POSTAL INFORMATION 
PARCEL-POST RATES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES 
New postal rates went into effect on October 1, 1932. 
The weight limit for all zones is 70 pounds. 
From the Fourth to the Eighth Zone, shipments weighing 
10 pounds or more usually go as cheaply by express. Any 
weight up to 40 pounds in the first and second zones and 22 
pounds in the third zone will usually go just as cheaply by 
parcel post as by freight or express. 
In many sections of Florida that are not easily accessible 
by freight or express, parcel-post service will be found not 
only far more satisfactory, but more economical. If you 
are on a rural route, delivery will be made to your door by 
mail. 
Most Florida points are in the First or Second Zone; 
however, Jacksonville north, Live Oak north and west, and 
points on the East Coast south of Delray are in the Third 
Zone. 
First and second zone, first pound 8c, 2 pounds 10c, each 
additional pound over 2 pounds add lc per pound. 
First lb. Each Additional lb. 
Third Zone. 9 cts. 2 cts. 
Fourth Zone. 10 cts. 3.5 cts. 
Fifth Zone. 11 cts. 5.3 cts. 
Sixth Zone. 12 cts. 7 cts. 
Seventh Zone. 14 cts. 9 cts. 
Eighth Zone. 15 cts. 11 cts.

If in doubt about your zone rate, obtain it from your 
postmaster and be sure to send enough to cover necessary 
postage. If you send too much, it will be returned to you. 
When you order your seeds to come by express or freight 
we can send them collect, so you may pay the transporta¬ 
tion charges on delivery. When ordering your seeds to be 
shipped by express or freight, always give your express or 
freight station, if it is not the same as your post-office. If 
your order is to be sent parcel-post, the postage must be 
paid in advance if the items ordered are not indicated as 
“postpaid” in this catalog, and you must send us the 
amount of postage in addition to the cost of the seeds. Do 
not have your order delayed or reduced by failing to add 
necessary postage. It will be found plainly stated above 
each item whether or not it is postpaid.
