SUGGESTIONS TO CUSTOMERS 
NAME, ADDRESS, ETC. We wish to impress upon you the importance 
of writing your name and full address plainly. If your express office is 
different from your post office, be sure to give it. We receive orders 
every year with faulty addresses, which cause unnecessary delay. 
ORDERING DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF PLANTS. If you order 
cabbage, onion, tomato plants, etc. at the same time make your remit- 
tance to cover the quantity of each kind of plant you order at the prices 
quoted. If you wish to make your order in advance for tomato, pepper, 
ete. at the same time you order cabbage and onion plants, you may do 
so by giving the date you wish the order shipped. 
WHEN TO ORDER: Place your order early, as soon as the catalog is 
received. State the date you want the plants shipped. 
PREPAID EXPRESS CHARGES 
We advise shipment of plants by express when possible, as it is cheaper 
in lots of 2,000 and over, and plants usually arrive in better order by 
express than by Parcel Post. We give below a scale of express charges 
per 1,000 plants to different states. We will prepay your order by express 
if you add the right amount according to this scale to your remittance 
for plants at Express Prices. You can of course have your order shipped 
express charges collect, in which case the scale below will show about 
what you will have to pay on arrival. We do not prepay charges if you 
do not send the money with the order.
