GOOD INFORMATION 
☆ 
We are large growers and not jobbers. 
We try to please our customers at all times. 
We do not buy dahlias of failing or bankrupt 
growers to fill our orders. 
Dahlia bulbs shipped by express are rated as sec¬ 
ond class and are listed as perishable. 
The express company stands all loss by freeze, or 
damaged otherwise, therefore do not hesitate to have 
orders shipped in cold weather. 
Express on dahlia bulbs is very low, often it is 
much less than parcel post or freight. 
All freight and parcel post shipments travel at 
purchaser’s risk as freight companies do not insure 
against freeze. Freight shipments travel slow and 
are handled rough. First-class freight costs about 
the same as express. 
Be sure your express agent has given you second- 
class rates. If unable to get second-class, notify us 
and we will assist you.
