GREETINGS! We are pleased to send you this Iris list, describing very 
briefly the fine varieties we have to offer you this season. Much time and 
‘study has been spent in making up our selection of varieties; we do not 
have them all, but we do have many of the finest offered by any grower. 
And we are adding a large number of the recent introductions to our 
gardens for next years listing. 
OUR LOCATION: We are located in almost the exact geographical center 
of the nation. Our seasons are extreme—the summers hot and dry, and 
the winters extremely cold and mostly dry too. This is the kind of weather 
that tests a variety of iris—if it can take it here, then you may count on 
it being hardy anywhere. Our soil is the very best black loam, slightly on 
the sandy side. Added together, these conditions make ideal Iris growing 
conditions. 
TERMS: Cash with order. We pay transportation charges on orders of 
$3.00 and over; otherwise, add 35c to cover cost of packing and postage. 
GUARANTEE: Our rhizomes will be state inspected, healthy, labeled true 
to name, and in good growing condition when shipped. No warranty can 
be given for cultural success, however, if you are not more than pleased 
when the plants arrive you may return them and we will make refund 
without question. 
If you are willing to accept substitutions, please make several second 
choices of varieties, otherwise we will make refunds on any ‘sold out’ items 
you may order. 
We reserve the right to accept or refuse any part of an order, depending 
upon the quantity and quality of the stock at the time of shipping. All 
orders will be filled in the order received. 
SHIPMENTS: We will dig and ship Iris from the 15th of July until the 
15th of October. Our experience makes us think that August and Sep- 
tember are the better months to plant Iris.
