DELIVERY DATES 
Usually we are well through the cleaning and grading of bulbs by December 10th. 
All orders which specify “for Christmas Gifts’ receive special handling and will be 
mailed in time for the Christmas giving if delivery points are on the west coast. East 
of the Rockies we will send such gift packages by express only, as otherwise we cannot 
insure against freeze damage. Please fill in the space on the order blank the date 
you prefer your package shipped. Orders that can be sent in freeze free weather are 
packed lightly and transportation expense is less. This applies to the Pacific Coastal 
Areas every month of the year, and to areas east of the Rockies after March Ist each 
spring. In sections where your planting season is in late January and February, and 
you are east of the Rockies, for your own protection you should always ask for express 
delivery — it is true that your cost will be a few cents more, but you are assured of full 
insurance, which cannot be given on parcel post delivery, It is our policy to give a 
choice recent variety free to compensate our customers for the extra expense of an 
express shipment.
