ON ORDER FORM write or type clearly and 
completely, mail as early as possible, preferably 
with payment in full. 
PUT DOWN AN ENTRY from catalog in each 
of the 5 columns on order blank for each variety. 
(It helps us if you separate retail items from 
quantity items.) 
GIVE US A LIST OF EXTRAS to select from 
and we'll follow your wishes as closely as possible. 
OUR POLICY ON EXTRAS AND COUNT: We 
give full count on bulbs and bulblets, and to be 
absolutely sure we add a few more on larger 
quantities. In addition, we put in SOME EX- 
TRAS on every retail bulb order. But when we 
have to ship C.O.D. it costs us money to make 
out tags, etc., so you get most extras on orders 
fully PAID IN ADVANCE. On retail orders for 
bulbs or bulblets only, if fully paid with order, 
you get extras as follows: Order up to $5 and 
you get 10% extra in bulbs or bulblets from list- 
ings on pages 21-48. Some varieties on pages 
49-51 can be used as extras but not all of them. 
Order of $5.01 to $25.00 gets 15% extra, and 
over $25.00 you get 20% extra. (Large or early 
order may bring you an extra extra of our choice). 
PAYMENT: Orders fully paid in advance save 
us time and expense and so earn most extras for 
you. But we'll ship retail orders C.O.D. if you 
wish, provided you send deposit of at least $1 
with order or 25% on orders of $4.00 or more. 
Of course you also pay C.O.D. fee to postman 
on delivery, plus balance due on order. You 
save C.O.D. costs by paying in advance. 
MINIMUM ORDER: We appreciate your 
courtesy in sending orders totaling $2.50 or 
Cut Sour CDere, 
Pp atOn cer all you're entitled to 
more, because smaller orders cost so much to 
handle they eat up all the profit. It also helps 
very much if no single entry for a variety is less 
than 25c except in a few cases where priced 
lower. We cannot handle 10 or 15 cents items 
to advantage. 
SHIPPING CHARGES: Items ordered at RETAIL 
from pages 12 to 55 are shipped at our expense 
anywhere in U.S. or Canada. Items ordered at 
quantity prices on pages 56-61 are shipped at 
YOUR expense. If order has both retail and quant- 
ity items, we ship at your expense but put in extras 
to make up for postage we don't have to pay 
(but if you prefer we can ship retail separate 
from quantity). 
HOW TO SHIP: On fair-sized orders express is 
safest, especially in cold weather. IF order is 
frozen, express company is liable. 
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ORDERS: We ac- 
knowledge each order and send a copy of our 
invoice (paid or not) promptly as possible. There 
may be a delay in the spring. You get another 
copy with order itself to check against. KEEP 
them for future reference, and if you need to 
write us PLEASE BE SURE to give order number 
from invoice in question. 
AIR MAIL: From a distance air mail may save 
you several days in getting bulbs. But don’t send 
special delivery; we get regular mail faster. 
ORDER EARLY: Though we have perhaps the 
largest assortment of glads anywhere in the 
world, we always sell out of some varieties. To 
be sure of getting your favorites, order as soon 
as possible. Some varieties in this catalog may 
never be listed again by us or anyone.
