Victory Service 
At last, the war is over, but 
remember that it was still on 
full blast during our growing 
season, accordingly our sup- 
plies of plants are still none 
too large. We, therefore, be- 
lieve we should still book or- 
ders on the basis of the fol- 
lowing stipulations: 
Plants are reserved from 
estimated supplies. We try 
to make estimates conserva- 
tive, but unusual conditions 
may cause shortages. It is 
now difficult to protect cus- 
tomers by purchasing from 
other approved Nurseries, so 
should estimates fail, or 
should other conditions be- 
yond our control prevent us 
from filling your order, we 
reserve the right to return 
your money and cancel your 
order. 
Size Limit for orders. We 
reserve the right at any time 
to limit the size of orders 
without notice. 
Proper shipping time shall 
embrace a period of about 
30 days, and is determined 
by a forecast service to 
which we subscribe, and 
which we find to be about 
75% accurate. 
We cannot agree to ship 
Send Your Orders to R. M. Kellogg Comapny, Three Rivers, Michigan 
exactly on a certain date, 
or so that plants will arrive 
at a certain time. We can 
not notify before shipment, 
or give orders other similar 
special handling. Sorry! 
We cannot agree to delay 
shipments beyond May 25th. 
Because of difference in 
climate we cannot ship orders 
in exact rotation as received. 
However, orders booked early 
are given preference within 
their proper shipping time, 
or within your specified date 
range. 
Quick service: Before 
April 1st, for items that we 
can supply then, we can ship 
promptly; but from April Ist 
to about May 20th, we can 
not do it with fairness, be- 
cause of the many orders 
booked early in the season 
for shipment during that 
period. Please try to order 
at least two weeks ahead of 
expected shipping date.

Order Your 
Shrubbery 
On page 28 of this book we have emphasizec 
that shrubbery will be shipped in March. This is 
very important on account of the labor shortage. 
By shipping shrubbery in March, we can utilize 
our experienced year-round men to pack them, 
but about April lst many of these men must go 
outside to work in the nursery. You gain (1) by 
having your stock on hand for earliest possible 
planting, (2) by having it packed by skilled 
workmen. 
Please co-operate by sending your order early; 
you will help us, and we can give you better ser- 
vice in return. 

Please do not try to guess the weather. It simply 
cannot be done. Do not specify any shipping date 
unless for some special reason other than weather. 
In such cases, we will ship as near as possible to your 
specified date, but can make no guarantees as we are 
still controlled by the weather and labor conditions 
here. 
How To Order

Unregistered currency sent at 
your risk. Add 5c exchange on 
personal checks.

counts. Send cash with order. 
Shipping Charges. Express 
shipments: you pay on deliv- 
ery; parcel post: pay us after 
shipment is complete. 
IMPORTANT. Our guar- 
anty applies only in states 
whose inspection laws allow 
plants to go direct from us 
to customer. We can guar- 
antee our own _ packing 
only, hence for states that 
stop plants for inspection, 
we agree only to deliver 
plants in good growing 
condition to Post Office 
or Transportation 
company, and _ there- 
upon our responsibil- 
ity ceases. Specifical- 
ly these states are: 
Washington, Ore- 
gon, California, Ar- 
If there is no express office 
in your town, give name of 
nearest ofhce and distance from 
you, on order blank. If distance 
is too great, we will ship parcel 
post.

should be passed, please add the
