SUGGESTIONS FOR ORDERING 
ORDER NOW AND SAVE 10% ON EARLY ORDERS 
Order in January or February if possible before the spring rush begins. March and April are our busy months 
and our full force works day and night at high speed. Now to help both you and us we will allow a ten per cent 
discount on all orders of $1.50 or more in one order (except collections, field seeds and fertilizers, which are 
net), that are received up to March first. Every order filled during January and February helps us just that much 
and we are passing this on to you. 
ORDER EARLY—We endeavor to ship all orders 
within 24 hours after we receive them, but during the 
rush season from February to April delays are some- 
times unavoidable. If patrons can anticipate their 
wants and order early it will be to our mutual benefit. 
REMITTANCES—Should be made by post office 
money order, express money order, or bank draft, for 
a sufficient amount to cover the entire order and post- 
age, if any. Do not send currency. Should it be lost 
there is no recourse. Stamps of three cent denomina- 
tion will be accepted for small amounts. 
PARCEL POST—Unless otherwise stated, we pay 
postage on all seeds and bulbs quoted in this catalogue 
in the first and second zones. On orders in larger 
quantity at “‘not prepaid’”’ prices stated in the cata- 
logue you pay the postage, express or freight. In such 
cases it will be necessary for you to send postage extra 
if you want it by parcel post, but if it is to be sent 
by freight or express you can pay the transportation 
charges at your freight or express office when you re- 
ceive the goods. If you do not know the zone you are 
in from Portland your postmaster or R.F.D. carrier 
can tell you. Parcel Post rates apply on weights up to 
70 pounds in all zones. Parcel Post rates are usually 
cheaper than express, with the added advantage of 
having the parcel delivered to your door. 
RETURNING MONEY—lIf we cannot fill your 
order for any item we will at once return the money 
sent for same. We will not keep your money without 
adequate returns to you, send you due bill or substitute 
something you do not want. 
CORRESPONDENCE—We try to give prompt atten- 
tion to all proper letters of inquiry, etc., but ask, as a 
favor, that all questions be stated clearly and briefly, 
and not on order sheets. 
THIS IS OUR SILENT SALESMAN—He calls on 
you once or perhaps twice. We know you are always 
pleased to see him—he is sent out to make sales. If 
you want him to call again, favor him with an order. 
We know he has something you will want and he also 
gives you a lot of information. 
OUR TERMS ARE STRICTLY CASH WITH THE ORDER 
We do not send C. O. D., as the cost of collecting return charges is quite an unnecessary item of expense and 
the prices being given, we can conceive of no necessity to warrant goods being so sent, 

NAME AND ADDRESS SHOULD ALWAYS BE GIVEN 
Frequently we receive unsigned letters. Sometimes they contain money and orders. Sometimes, too, letters 
are received in which the name of the town is left out and the postmark is blurred. We cannot fill orders unless 
we know the name and address of the buyer. The easiest way for you is to use our order sheet, filling in the blanks. 
GUARANTEE 
Seeds of the best quality are apt to fail through improper treatment by sowing the seed too deep or too 
shallow, in too wet or too dry soil. They differ greatly as to the temperature required for germination. Some will 
germinate rapidly at a certain temperature, while others, if sown under the same conditions, are apt to decay, 
and for all these reasons it is impractical to guarantee seeds. We give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to de- 
scription, quality, productiveness, or any other matter, of any seeds, bulbs or plants sent out, and will not be in 
any way responsible for the crop.
