STATION ANNOUNCEMENT 
(Read Carefully) 
The season just past has been the driest 
~* in 30 years but due to a fairly good supply 
of water we have harvested a fine crop of 
plump roots that should do well in your 
garden for 1952. New varieties have been 
added and some of the older ones discarded. 
Only the ones that have proven good have 
been listed. Our prices remain as low as 
possible consistent with top quality regard- 
less of the advances all along the line. On Oct. Ist 
postage rates were raised a little over 20% so we are 
asking you to share this with us as follows:— On 
orders for less than $3.00 please add 30¢: On orders 
from $3.00 to $5.00 please add 50¢: All orders over 
$5.00 will go out fully prepaid. 
GUARANTEE—All our stock is fully guaranteed to 
be true to name and in good growing condition when 
received by you. If any variety fails to grow we stand 
ready to replace or return the purchase price. All 
orders accepted subject to any conditions over which 
we have no control. NO advance orders will be held 
after May 15th unless paid in full. 
TERMS—We require cash with orders, or 25% de- 
posit to hold early orders, balance to be sent before 
shipment. We DO NOT ship C.O.D. This is an added 
expense to you and extra work for us. Unused stamps 
will be accepted for small orders in values up to 10¢. 
Make all checks and money orders payable 
to J. E. HULIN. We start shipping the first 
week in April. If your order is late may “=. @
