TERMS OF SALE 
Important—Read Carefully Before Ordering 
QUOTATIONS: The prices quoted are as low as can be made for strictly 
first-class stock and are for U. S. Currency. 3% sales tax must be added for 
all deliveries made in the state of California. This list cancels all previous 
quotations. 
REMITTANCES for all orders should be made by Postoffice, Express Money 
Order or Bank Draft. Canadian, Mexican and all foreign customers are re¬ 
quested to remit by Postoffice Money Order, which is not subject to discount 
like checks and other forms of exchange. 
FILLING ORDERS: All orders are filled in strict rotation, carefully labeled, 
lightly and securely packed, and delivered to the carriers in good condition. 
In case stock of certain varieties is exhausted, we reserve the right to decline 
the order. To partially avoid such action, place your order early, so that the 
plants may be set aside. Assist in prompt delivery by using order sheet. 
SHIPMENTS: All shipments valued at less than $5.00 will be made by parcel 
post unless otherwise instructed. All shipments valued at $5.00 or more will be 
shipped by Railway Express. If plants are to be shipped by Parcel Post add cost 
of postage, as all prices quoted are F.O.B. Arcadia, California. As a basis for 
computing weight use 12 ounces for each 12 plants, packing included. Your 
Post Office will furnish postal rates upon request. 
FOREIGN SHIPMENTS (except Canada and Mexico) require special treat¬ 
ment, both as to condition of plants and method of packing to insure safe 
delivery. We ask such customers to add 25 per cent to amount of the order 
to cover this extra expense. 
CLAIMS FOR DAMAGE: All claims for damage must be assumed and en¬ 
tered against the carrier by the buyer. Inasmuch as we have no control over 
the transportation agencies, we cannot be responsible for plants damaged in 
transit by either extremes in temperature or injuries due to delayed deliveries 
or rough handling. 
NO GUARANTEE: While we exercise utmost care in executing all orders to 
keep our stock true to name, we give no warranty, expressed or implied, and 
cannot guarantee or be in any way responsible for the crop, either as to 
variety or product... ALL ORDERS are accepted on the above terms and are 
not subject to return.
