most cases for pack- 
ages weighing 20 pounds or more, according to local conditions. Liquids and poisons should be ordered 
sent by express or freight, as poisons are not mailable without special packing. 
FREIGHT SHIPMENTS 
Should be used when possible on heavy goods. The saving will be considerable. Order early and 
allow ample time.

Accounts cannot be opened for small amounts. Persons wishing to open accounts must furnish 
satisfactory references, and allow time for investigation before shipment can be made.

unsuitable for grass and other fine seeds.

Freight Office is different from Post-Office, advise us of the same.
