INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING 
(Please read carefully) 
MAKING OUT YOUR ORDER. Please put everything down on the order blank just as it is 
listed in the catalogue. After adding it up, figure your bulb discount and add on the extra 
bulbs of your choosing. Minimum order $2.00. All retail orders prepaid anywhere in the United 
States or Canada. Wholesale orders f.o.b. New Albany, Ind. 
EXTRA BULBS FOR CASH ORDERS. On cash orders of $2.50 to $5.00 you can select 10% extra 
in bulbs of your own choosing. From $5.00 to $10.00 select 15%, all over $10.00 select 20%. 
These discounts do not apply to collections or wholesale prices. All orders will receive over- 
count and extras but the special discount of extra bulbs is for cash orders only. If you do not 
have room on the front of the order blank to list your extra bulbs, please use the reverse side. 
BUSINESS TERMS. Remittance must be included with an order from the retail list if the amount 
is less than $5.00. Larger c.o.d. orders must be accompanied by 25% of their value. However 
to get your special discount of extra bulbs payment in full must be made before shipment. It 
is our intention to send out only healthy bulbs, true to name, and we will gladly refund the 
purchase price if the bulbs are found unsatisfactory upon receipt. We cannot, however, guar- 
antee results as planting conditions are beyond our control. (Note: 5 bulbs will be sold at one- 
half the price of 10.) Stock is state inspected both in the field and in storage. 
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ORDERS. Every order is written as received and an invoice sent as 
soon as possible after receiving the order. This invoice should be kept for reference as it is the 
only one we send out except the copy which goes with the order. When corresponding 
about a previous order please give the order number that is listed on the invoice. 
Small orders are usually sent by mail at our risk. Larger orders are shipped by express fully 
insured, thereafter our responsibility ceases. Customer should file an immediate claim if the 
package is received in a damaged condition. 
WHOLESALE PRICES. Upon request we will gladly mail our wholesale list to bona fide 
growers. Extras and overcount are also given on wholesale orders. Be sure to list on the back 
of the order blank some varieties that you would like to try. Also whether you want large, 
medium, or small bulbs or bulblets. We will include bulbs according to the size of the order, 
F.O.B. ITEMS. If your order contains both f.o.b. and retail items, we will ship them together 
in one package f.o.b. but will give enough overcount and extras to more than offset the carrying 
charges on the retail items. If the order is a large one and you want the 2 classes shipped 
separately, be sure to mark the order blank accordingly. 
ORDER EARLY. To be sure of getting the varieties you have planned on, send your orders 
as soon as possible. 
BULB SIZES. Large size is 1% inch and up, medium size % inch to 1% inch, small size 1% 
inch to % inch. 
BULBLETS. Bulblets of some varieties are hard to germinate. If the bulblets are expensive it 
will be to advantage to peel them before planting. Do not peel them more than a few days 
in advance of planting or they will lose moisture and become dry and hard. After planting, 
whether peeled or not, if they are kept well watered the per cent that will germinate and grow 
will be much larger. When giving peeled bulblets a pre-planting dip they should only be 
dipped for an instant, only long enough for the solution to coat them. When growing new 
introductions, planting bulblets is a cheaper way to get a start, however, we cannot guarantee 
their germination. Usually a big per cent of most varieties will germinate and grow but it pays 
to give the bulblets a little extra attention. When bulblets are ordered we will always select 
the largest ones available. 
LOCATION. All mail should be addressed to Post Office Box 26, New Albany, Indiana. Our 
bulbs are grown on our farm east of the city. 
All stock is offered subject to prior sale. If we are out of the variety ordered, we will not, under 
any condition, substitute without your permission. I will personally see that each and every 
customer receives full value.
