TERMS 
All bills are subject to 2 per cent discount within 
10 days from invoice date. Sixty days net. Sight 
draft, plus interest, thereafter. 
Shipments are forwarded by best carrier, in our 
judgment at time of delivery, unless otherwise spe¬ 
cified by customer. 
First-class stock is carefully packed when ship¬ 
ment is made, and we hold good order receipt from 
the transportation company. Our responsibility 
ceases thereafter. If the stock reaches you in bad 
condition, notify agent and bring claim against the 
delivery company for damage caused by their neg¬ 
ligence, as no allowance for this cause can or will 
be made by us. 
Bulbs, whether shipped on arrival or placed in 
cold storage for later delivery, may be examined 
at time of arrival if desired, but no claims will be 
entertained at a later date. 
As to all items other than bulbs, claims must be 
made within five days after receipt or they cannot 
be recognized. 
While we exercise the greatest care to have all seeds pure and reliable, and all bulbs, plants and cuttings true 
to name, we do not give any warranty, express or implied, and will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If 
the purchaser does not accept the goods on these terms they must be returned at once and the money will be refunded.
