TERMS 
Deliveries are subject to yield of crops and safe arrival of consignments. 
It is not possible to have all items listed available at all times. A number of perish- 
able seeds cannot be stored successfully and must be ordered in season. All seeds are 
offered subject to crop failures or short supplies. 
Seeds are sold without warranty, expressed or implied as to description and pro- 
ductiveness. Goods should be carefully inspected upon arrival and claims for conditions 
made at once. We cannot consider claims after seeds have been stored or planted. 
All shipments travel at buyer’s risk and claims for damages in transit must be taken 
up with carriers. 
CAUTION—While it is true that plants grown from seed of horticultural varieties 
often yield superior plant material in comparison to that grown from nondescript seed, 
we wish to emphasize that seeds of such varieties or hybrids, with few exceptions, cannot 
be expected to come true to name. They are offered here for the convenience of competent 
plantsmen, for research and breeding work only. 
CUSTOMERS OTHER THAN PROFESSIONALS—Please note that their orders 
for pound lots will be handled in line with all others. Orders for small quantities of 
assorted items must wait their turn to be filled after arrival of respective items from 
sources. We suggest that such orders be placed with us prior to March Ist. During 
the busy spring and fall shipping seasons orders for small amounts of seeds cannot be 
filled promptly. Please confine correspondence concerning small orders to the most 
necessary and attach a stamped return envelope if your inquiry does not concern an order. 
The right is reserved to return orders received in excess of our facilities. 
PRICES—subject to change without notice, are f.o.b. Boston. 
PAYMENT—for customers of approved credit upon receipt of invoice. A cash 
discount of 3 % is allowed on all orders amounting to $10.00 or more. For orders or ship- 
ments requested for less than $5.00, please remit $.50 extra for handling. Please include 
postage charges in your remittance together with charges for packing, 5% for all items 
in pound lots or over. Packing is charged at cost. 
ORDERING—We request that written orders be a separate part of any corres- 
ondence and clearly show amount and price of each item listed. Quantities smaller than 
isted cannot be supplied. 
SHIPMENTS TO CANADA—In compliance with current regulations covering 
entry of seeds of trees and shrubs customers will please apply for a Dominion entry permit 
to be enclosed with order. Orders to Canada can be filled in bulk lots only in quantities 
not less than one-quarter pound. Regulations prescribing U.S.A. inspection of every seed 
lot forwarded are not favorable to the preparation of packet lots, ounce quantities or less, 
which we must exclude from dispatch across the border. Perennial flower seeds are un- 
restricted and can be shipped as before. 
CERTIFICATION —AIl bulk lots of forest seeds received from abroad are certified 
as to origin as a matter of course. Special certificates will be furnished upon request.

dried berries; asterisk (*) denotes new or insufficiently known plants of merit.
