How to Obtain Eastern 
States Vegetable Seed 

yy Ordering: Please submit your order on 
the vegetable seed order form which is included 
as a part of this Coopzrator — additional 
copies can be obtained from an Eastern States 
local representative, warehouse, or the West 
Springfield, Mass., office. 
Orders may be submitted through a local 
representative, or warehouse, or direct to the 
West Springfield, Mass., office. 
Shipment will be made or notice of inability 
to ship will be sent promptly. Early orders help 
to assure the varieties desired and delivery well 
in advance of planting time. 
Delivery: Shipment will be made by parcel 
post or express at our option. Exceptions to this 
may be made by us; and some orders such as for 
warehouse stocks may be shipped in Eastern 
States feed cars. Shipment will be made as 
promptly after receipt of order as supplies and 
facilities permit. 
Local Warehouse Service: Limited sup- 
plies of seed will be maintained at Eastern 
States regional warehouses and at warehouses 
of some local representatives for the emergency 
needs of members at somewhat higher prices. 
Do not depend on local warehouse service for 
your basic requirements. Better service can be 
rendered at less expense when members antici- 
pate their needs and place orders well in ad- 
vance of desired planting date. 
Charges: Prices are subject to change with- 
out notice. Prices in effect at the West Spring- 
field office on the postmarked date of your order 
will apply. 
Prices include seed treatment, bags and trans- 
portation within Eastern States territory when 
method of shipment is at our option. 
Prices of seed taken from warehouse or repre- 
sentatives’ stocks are slightly higher. Catalog 
prices may be obtained by placing orders in ad- 
vance, allowing time for direct shipment. 
Payment: Cash with the order or C.O.D. 
Package Units: Seed is packaged in stand- 
ard size units as listed only. Unless otherwise 
authorized we will ship each item in the largest 
standard size units available and invoice at the 
rate for its total weight. Orders which specify 
certain size packages will be invoiced at the 
rate for those sizes. Varieties cannot be com- 
bined to obtain lower prices of larger units. 
Mutual Understanding and Exchange 
Warranty: The Eastern States Farmers’ Ex- 
change has exercised all reasonable precautions 
in the production, preparation and distribution 
of this seed, but cannot govern the conditions 
under which the resulting crop is grown. There- 
fore, upon the acceptance of this seed, it is 
mutually agreed that the Eastern States Farm- 
ers’ Exchange gives no watranty, express or 
implied, concerning the amount, type, quality 
or conditions of the crop produced and shall in 
no case be liable for more than the amount 
actually paid for the seed. Statements of germi- 
nation, description and other information are 
given as the report of our tests, observations, 
and advice. 
It is further mutually agreed by both the 
member buyer and the Exchange that in case 
of partial or total crop failure of any crops pur- 
chased, planted, or caused to be planted by the 
Exchange for the purpose of procuring seed, 
or in case of damage to, or destruction of any 
seed of these varieties now on hand or to be 
delivered through fire, accident or otherwise, 
the Exchange shall be obliged to deliver pro- 
portionate quantities only after reserving an 
amount of stock seed equal to that used in its 
plantings.
