Santa Maria is now a scheduled stop for Southwest Air-

geles and San Francisco. This fine service will enable all 
Air-Mail to reach Chicago and New York areas within 24 
hours from our office. Air Express service has been in- 
augurated on this same schedule. 
Definite shipping instructions should accompany each 
order placed, and will be carefully followed by our Ship- 
ping Department. In the event instructions are not re- 
ceived, shipments will be forwarded over the most direct 
and cheapest route. Delivery to the common carrier in 
good condition will terminate our responsibility. 
Prices quoted in this catalog apply against all 1949 
crop purchases, and are effective immediately on all spot 
orders. We reserve the right to change these prices at 
anytime without giving further notice. We are Wholesale 
Growers and supply the Seed Trade only. 
Bags and containers will be charged at net cost. All 
orders for four ounces or more will be charged at the 
pound rate. 
We will plant sufficient land to produce the quantity 
of seed ordered under normal conditions; however, crop 
failure or any other cause beyond our control releases us 
from delivery and in the event of shortages, we will fill 
contract orders on a pro-rata basis only. 
We give no warranty, express or implied, as to the 
productiveness of any seed we sell and will not be in any 
way responsible for the crop. Our liability in all instances, 
is limited to the purchase price of the seed. (Standard 
non-warranty clause of American Seed Trade Association. )
