PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING 
ORDER EARLY —This has its advantages as you are sure to get what you order. As the 
season advances we run short of certain varieties and while we live in one of the largest bulb 
growing areas in America, it is almost impossible to obtain additional stocks from other growers 
after mid-season. We fill orders in the order received, so the earlier your order is in the more 
certain you are of getting it filled completely. 
GUARANTEE —All bulbs are guaranteed true to name, free from disease or pests, and to 
arrive in good condition. We guarantee to do our utmost to please our customers and will per¬ 
sonally see that full value is given in every order. If the bulbs do not give complete satisfaction, 
advise us at once, and your money will be refunded, upon return of the bulbs at our expense. 
Although we cannot govern the conditions under which these bulbs will be planted and grown 
we want it understood that it is our desire that our customers be absolutely satisfied with results 
obtained. If for any reason they do not perform satisfactorily, please write us about it and if 
it is proven to be the fault of the bulbs, we will gladly replace them or refund your money. 
PREPAID —All prices quoted include delivery charges prepaid by parcel post or express, 
unless otherwise noted. Always remember that 6 bulbs of a variety can be purchased at the 
dozen rate; 25 bulbs at the 100 rate. Unless the rate per 100 is quoted, all bulbs listed herein may 
be purchased by the 100 at 7 times the dozen rate. 
SHIPMENTS —Orders will be shipped beginning September 1st or as soon as the Horti¬ 
cultural inspectors issue us our shipping permits. If it would be more convenient for you to 
have your order sent at a certain date, be sure to notify us far enough in advance so that we can 
do this. NO ORDERS ACCEPTED AFTER NOVEMBER 1st. 
SUBSTITUTIONS —We do not substitute without your consent. In ordering late in the 
season it is advisable to name substitutes, which will greatly assist us in filling your order com¬ 
pletely. 
TERMS —Customers often lose cash sent in the mails unregistered, so you do this at your 
own risk. Remittances may be made by check or money order. Stamps will be accepted in pay¬ 
ment for small orders. The day your order is received we mail to you a card or letter of ac¬ 
knowledgment; if it does not arrive promptly please let us know so that we may be able to 
trace it. 
EXTRAS AND SPECIAL DISCOUNTS —It has always been our custom to add extras to 
each order. The amount and variety varies with the size of the order. Sometimes the extras 
consist of additional bulbs of the varieties ordered, at other times they are something differ¬ 
ent. Rather than send extras of something you already have, we will let you select your own 
from our retail list. On orders from $5.00 to $25.00 you can select 10% extra in stock; from 
$25 00 or more select 15% extra in stock. This offer does not apply to our bulbs listed under the 
heading of “Planting Stock’’ or “Collections’’.

The kiss of the sun 
for pardon, 
The song of the birds 
for mirth; 
One is nearer God’s heart 
in a garden, 
Than any place else 
on earth.
