ANNOUNCEMENT 
ddd 
All the items we offer are of our own growing, 
high germination, absolutely true to type, produced 
with the finest possible planting seed and are 
California and Colorado grown. Our personnel has 
had nearly a quarter of a century's experience in the 
production of the cucurbits, and we invite compara- 
tive trials with stocks from any other source. Samples 
for trial gladly furnished gratis. 
Our California and Colorado warehouses are fully 
and completely equipped with modern machinery 
and with all equipment to handle production in a 
skillful and efficient manner. We use unusual care in 
germination tests and in further refining our seeds, 
to eliminate all foreign matter. 
We make a great specialty of the reproduction 
of special strains—no quantity too large or too 
small. Send us your special stock seeds for repro- 
duction purposes. 
Our terms are 60 days, with acceptance, or 1% 
30 days, I'/% 10 days to all well rated firms, others 
draft with B/L less 2%. Delivery is at our option, 
F.O.B. Rocky Ford, Colo., or Modesto, Calif., with 
containers billed at cost. 
We shall be governed by a commercial credit 
agency's report in determining our terms. Any 
claims against our shipments must be made within 
two weeks after arrival of our goods; we are never 
liable to more than invoice price of goods. If the 
final yield of seeds be under our field estimate, we 
are under no obligation to fill as estimated. The 
other terms are as per the usual custom with 
seed growers. 
We therefore respectfully ask you to give due con- 
sideration to this list and favor us with a fair share 
of your orders. 
Yours respectfully,
