TERMS of BUSINESS. 
Prepayment.— Orders for goods to be exported, whether received 
from abroad or from persons residing in the United Kingdom, must 
be accompanied by a remittance for the Seeds, Packages, 
Freight, and Shipping Expenses, unless satisfactory arrange- 
ments be made for the settlement of our invoices in this country on 
the goods being despatched. 
If desired we are prepared to send SEEDS (not Bulbs or Plants) 
without prepayment to places where a ‘Cash on Delivery’ service 
is in operation in connection with the British Post Office. 
In calculating the cost of postage the following particulars will be 
of service :—- 
100 packets of assorted Flower Seeds weigh approximately 15 lbs. 
100 packets of assorted Flower and Vegetable Seeds, not including 
Peas and Beans, weigh approximately 34 lbs. 
Peas and Beans weigh on an average 2 lbs. per quart. 
An addition of at least five per cent. to the value of the Seeds, 
as estimated by our current Catalogue, should be made for packing. 
Any surplus after defraying expenses will be placed to the credit of 
the Customer’s account, or returned as may be desired. 
Remittances.—Any mode of remitting that may be convenient to 
Customers will be agreeable to us. Bank Drafts on London or 
Cheques on English Bankers (either London or Country) are 
acceptable, and ‘SuTTON & SONS’ is the proper title for filling in 
Cheques or obtaining Money Orders. Cheques, Money Orders, and 
Postal Orders should be crossed ‘ London County Westminster and 
Parr’s Bank Ltd.’ 
Prices.—in the event of unforeseen circumstances arising we reserve the 
right to advance the price of any article offered in this Catalogue 
without notice. 
Carriage.— We deliver goods f.o.b. at any Port in Great Britain, 
except parcels under 20s. value. 
Postage.— FLOWER SEEDS of 10s. value and upwards are forwarded 
Post Free to any part of the world. This does not extend to 
VEGETABLE SEEDS and heavy goods, the postage of 
which we always charge to Customers. 
Insurance.—Unless otherwise instructed, we insure all goods at 
Customer’s expense. 
Responsibility.— After Packages are delivered on board Ship at 
Port of embarkation, or to any destination in Great Britain, our 
responsibility ceases. 
Orders will be accepted on the understanding that we will deliver 
unless prevented by interruption of transport or other circumstances 
beyond our control, in which contingency any unfulfilled portion of 
an order is to be considered cancelled without any liability on our 
part for non-delivery. 

Unsigned, Orders.—Important.— A considerable number of 
orders reach us without name or address, and some of them do not 
bear a post-mark. As a rule it is impossible for us to trace the 
senders. It is therefore important that in any communication 
concerning an unsigned order mention should be made of some of 
the articles included in it, to aid us in its identification. 
Recommendations.— We are sincerely grateful to the numerous 
Customers who kindly recommend our House, and on being favoured 
with the name and address of any friend possessing a garden we shall 
always be pleased to forward our Catalogue. 
Changes of Residence.— In order that our Catalogues may be 
forwarded regularly, we shall feel obliged if Customers will inform us 
of a change of residence. To any Customer 
who may fail to receive a Catalogue at the 
usual time we will gladly send another copy 
on receipt of a line. 
Trade Mark.—For the protection of Cus- 
tomers our Trade Mark appears on all our 
labels. 

Overseas Agents.— Agents for the sale 
of our Seeds have been appointed in many 
places abroad, and all goods consigned to 
such Agents are also protected with our 
Trade Mark, without which none should be 
accepted as genuine. 


Suggestions to Customers.—tThe use of our Order Form will 
greatly facilitate our work. It is prepared to save the trouble of 
writing a detailed List, and a copy may always be had on application. 
The Customer’s name and full postal address should be sent with 
every order, and, in the case of goods to be shipped, the Port and 
Railway Station should be mentioned. 
It is respectfully requested that all Letters on Business be addressed 
to the Firm—‘ Sutton & Sons,’ Reading, England ; but any communi- 
cation of a confidential nature should be marked ‘ Private.’ 
Terms as to Guarantee.—Sutton’s Seeds have been carefully 
grown, selected, cleaned, and repeatedly tested under our personal 
superintendence. We are therefore able to guarantee their analytical 
purity and high germination. But we do not undertake any 
responsibility as to description, purity, productiveness, or any other 
matter connected with the crop when the seed has been sown, and the 
goods are sold on the express condition that, when they have been 
shipped, posted, or otherwise despatched, our responsibility absolutely 
ceases, and that no claim for damages or otherwise shall be made 
against us for any breach of obligation.
