SUBSTITUTION. Be sure to state whether we shall

the right to substitute some similar variety of equal or

FOR ORDERING 
CANCELLATION. Orders are not subject to cancella- 
tion or change during the shipping season. Stock not 
returnable for credit. We accept no obligation or responsi- 
bility for the return of any stock, unsatisfactory or other- 
wise, without our first having given instructions for the 
return of same. 
SHIPPING INFORMATION, All nursery stock should be 
shipped by either express or parcel post, Other methods 
of transportation are too slow and uncertain for such 
perishable material. Except on very small shipments, 
transportation charges by express are usually less than 
by parcel post. Also, customer receives the added con- 
venience of being able to pay actual transportation 
“charges at destination with no added collection charge. 
PARCEL POST SHIPMENTS. If parcel post is the only 
convenient method of transportation, be sure to add to 
your remittance an ample amount to cover postal charges, 
thereby eliminating C.O.D, and money order fees, which 
are required on C.O.D. shipments. WE RECOMMEND 
EXPRESS WHEREVER POSSIBLE. Customer stands trans- 
portation costs on all purchases excepting those quoted in 
catalog at prepaid prices. All other items are sent either 
by parcel post, or express collect. 
CLAIMS. All claims covering condition upon arrival, 
shortages or otherwise MUST BE MADE WITHIN TEN 
DAYS AFTER ARRIVAL OF SHIPMENT. If no complaint is 
made within that time, it will be assumed that shipment 
is satisfactory. If shipment arrives in damaged condition, 
be sure to secure signed statement from the express agent 
or postmaster at destination, showing full extent of loss 
er damage. Claims cannot be considered without this 
information.
