AND ROOTS 
Owing to existing conditions and traffic 
difficulties that exist, we are unable to 
deliver free, orders for vegetable plants 
and roots under the minimum price of 
$3.00 on each consignment. 

We regret that it is not practicable to ship pot- 
grown plants of PEPPER, PARSLEY, EGG- 
PLANTS, and TOMATOES by Parcel Post. 
The foliage of these plants is very soft and tender 
and we have found from experience (largely be- 
cause of delays in the mail service), that they reach 
their destination in a worthless condition. 
Nor can we ship any of the above-mentioned 
plants outside the Japanese beetle zone. 
A fresh supply of these plants will be available 
during the planting season at our store, 516-18 
Marke St., Philadelphia 5, on a cash-and-carry 
asis. :
