NOTE TO READER 
® Owing to conditions over which we have no control, we 
have decided to forego the issuing of a catalog and offer 
you this little GARDEN GUIDE AND RECORD for your 
consideration. We hope it will be of no little help with 
your next Victory and Flower Garden. 
So much merchandise is unobtainable, and many varie- 
ties of seeds are limited and others out entirely, that it 
would be impossible for us to list a large variety with 
any assurance of supplying the demands. However, we 
will have all the seeds, both standard and novelties, that 
are to be secured in any market of the country, so we 
hope you will feel free to consult us at any time regard- 
ing anything you may desire to plant. If we do not have 
it, and time and help permit, we will try to get it for you. 
Our prices will always be as low as possible consistent with 
topnotch merchandise.

SOME THINGS ARE BEING SUBSTITUTED, BUT THERE 
IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR PATIENCE AND COURTESY. 
WE ALL WANT TO HELP 
@ In these times of high speed, long hours, and insufficient 
help, we are sometimes inclined to be impatient. This is not 
necessary, and of no help to any of us. One way we can all 
help is to be considerate of others. Do not hand the sales 
people a large bill if you have a smaller one. Have your tax 
tokens or money ready; don’t wait to be asked for them. 
Carry all. merchandise you can. Phone orders will be 
handled as rapidly as possible. We will ship any mailable 
merchandise you desire, but do not ask us to ship C.O.D., 
as this is an added expense to you and extra work for us. 
If your credit is good, we will bill you. 
We will prepay all packages of seeds to any address up 
to four ounces. Actual shipping charges will be added to 
any other shipments, but no packing charges will be added. 
Always write your name and address as plainly as possible 
If your city is zoned, give zone number.
