This Way is Best 
There is always a right way and a wrong way to do things, 
and there is a right way and a wrong way to buy nursery stock. 
Contrary to anything else that may be told you, the mail-order 
plan is best for live plants, bulbs, and nursery stock in general; 
because plants are tender and perishable, and the less time that 
elapses between their removal from the nursery and their arrival 
in your hands, the better. It certainly is not advisable that they 
should lie around under the questionable care of incompetent 
persons, and where conditions are not right, before you take de- 
All of the items you will receive from us are freshly dug from 
the nursery before shipment, excepting those which actually re- 
quire storage, and these are stored under proper conditions by 
people who expertly know how. Further, you deal directly with 
the nursery itself. Unskilled middlemen do not enter into the 
picture at all, hence you are assured that you will get just what 
you order, and that everything will be of highest quality and in 
best possible planting condition and backed by Kellogg’s liberal 
livery of them. 
When You Order 
Please write plainly, and use order blank 
if you have one. If not, please tabulate. 
Then add your order carefully and send 
money by good safe means—no unregis- 
tered currency. NO C.O.D’s. 
And then there is the matter of transpor- 
tation. With nursery stock it is impossible 
to advise what the cost will be in advance, 
so we can give no scale of shipping 
charges. However, we will ship best 
method. If express, you will pay express- 
man as plants are delivered. If parcel post, 
you will remit direct to us after shipment 
by a special easy method we will provide. 
However, many customers have requested 
a method for sending shipping charges 
with their orders, and you who are in that 
group may add a sufficient amount to your 
guarantee. 
orders to take care of shipping charges, 
and we will refund left-over funds after 
shipping. Usually 5% of the value of the 
order is enough, but for distant points, or 
for heavy stock such as trees, 10% is better. 
We can ship parcel post C.O.D. for ship- 
ping charges, but this method should be 
used for larger orders only, as there are 
extra costs attached to parcel post C.O.D. 
amounting to at least 30c. 
IF NO EXPRESS OFFICE in your 
town, give name of nearest express office 
and distance from you. 
AND NOW ABOUT SMALL OR- 
DERS: These are proportionately ex- 
pensive to handle, and so if your order 
amounts to less than $2.50, please add 35c 


for handling charge. Out of this we will 
pay parcel post charges. If you increase or- 
der to $2.50, you escape the service charge, 
but are to pay shipping charge. And don’t 
forget that if your order amounts to $4.50 
or more, you get the extra values indicated 
above. 
AND NOW JUST A FEW OTHER 
THINGS: No cancellations or changes 
during shipping season, for obvious rea- 
sons. Plants not returnable for credit. Our 
fall shipping season starts about September 
15th, and continues until about November 
5th—a little later for bulbs to the South. 
We cannot agree to delay shipment be- 
yond November 5th.
