TERMS OF SALE - REMITTANCES: 
Remittances should accompany all orders and may 
be made by Post Office Money Order, Bank Draft or by 
check. Do not send stamps. 
SIZE OF ROOTS: 
This year I offer one and two eye divisions, one and 
two year old plants and on some varieties three to five 
eye divisions. 
All small divisions and small plants should be planted 
where they can be given water in Sepitember and Oc¬ 
tober and again in April, May, and June. 
GUARANTEE: 
All varieties are guaranteed true to name. Should 
any varieties prove untrue to name, I will replace 
them with true stock. 
BANK REFERENCES: 
Peoples Savings Bank, Van Wert, Ohio. 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS: 
Cultural directions will be mailed with the acknowl¬ 
edgment of the order. Another copy will be included 
in the package with the roots. 
TIME OF SHIPMENTS: 
I begin shipping my peony orders the first week in 
September. Customers may ask for shipment any week 
before November 15th. 
POSTAGE AND PACKING CHARGES: 
In my September, 1939 leaflet I told my customers 
that postage charges would be made on all of the small 
roots which they-purchased from me and in every pack¬ 
age which left my garden after that circular was sent 
out, I placed one or more gratis roots. Apparently 
these gratis roots were so welcome that my customers 
did not object to the paying of the postal charges. 
PARCEL POST 
Here is the scale of parcel post prices on packages this year. 
The charges on one division of any size (or root of any size) 
will be 10c. The charges on two roots or divisions will be 12c, 
on three roots or divisions 14c, on four roots or divisions 16c, 
and one cent for each additional root or division. 
These charges may appear too large in the first, sec¬ 
ond, and possibly third zones, but customers living 
farther away will probably notice that on some pack¬ 
ages the charges were higher than the amounts noted 
here. We hope we will remember to place an addi¬ 
tional division or two in each package to equalize 
postage and packing charges. 
NO SUBSTITUTIONS: 
Of some varieties, I have a limited number of roots. 
If I cannot supply any variety you order, I will return 
your money for that variety. I never make substitu¬ 
tions on any customer’s order unless the customer asks 
that this be done.
