PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING 
TERMS, PRICES AND SHIPMENT — (pn all orders for $5.00, or less, cash with 
order — over $5.00, 25% cash with order and balance before shipment. Unless 
full cash or at least 25% deposit accompanies order, or request to be reserved, 
the order can not be booked. Minimum order $3.00, please. Minimum foreign or 
Canadian order $5.00. 
I cannot accept orders for less than the smallest unit quoted. For instance, 
where 2 for 30, one cannot be had for 15. Five bulbs can be had at the 10 rate and 
90 bulblets at the 100 rate only when the price is $1.00 or more per 100. Unless 
price is listed per 10, the per 10 rate does not apply, but only the rate that is 
listed no matter how many ordered. Transportation to points within the United 
States and Canada, will be paid by me when weather will permit shipment by 
parcel post, safe from freezing. /f you must send an order for less than the above 
minimum requested, then 25 cents extra must be added to help pay for packing 
and postage. Parcel post shipments cannot be made safely until spring but if 
shipment is desired before then, | will ship express immediately, charges collect, 
and include extras to help in paying such charges. As is the custom of all shippers, 
I will include extras anyway and in place of many complicated, discount offers, | 
will give additional overcount or extras depending on size of order when cash in 
full accompanies the order. You might suggest which you prefer. You may be 
sure these extras will fully cover these discounts and then some. If you have ever 
ordered from me you know about my generosity and if you are to place your first 
order you will soon be convinced.

SUBSTITUTION —A]] stock offered subject to prior sale. | will not substitute erther 
size or variety without you so direct and will refund immediately on any item I 
cannot supply. If you wish substitution, please be sure to indicate your desire by 
using spaces on order blank for that purpose. If you should check substitution for 
both “nearest size” and “similar color,” | will always substitute the size first, if still 
available. If you care to make a second choice when sending your order, instead 
of leaving selection to me, it would be greatly appreciated. By following these 
suggestions it might save correspondence and also give you a better substitution 
than could be made after exchange of letters, during which time the best substitute 
might have been sold out. The foregoing is espcecially applicable to orders for the 
small varieties in many of which the supply 1s more or less limited. [| will always 
make substitutions and ask for your approval before final entry of your order. 
As I am a small grower and will not buy bulbs for resale, but sell only those 
bulbs that | have grown in my own garden (with the exception of the 1953 new 
introductions and several very recent introductions listed along with these for 1953), 
my supply is limited and in some varieties and items very limited. As will be 
noted, in some varieties my stock is so small that I must limit sales to one or two 
bulbs to a customer. Probably | should not offer these at all, but | know they are 
something many of you would like to get as soon as possible. So in order that 
you may benefit, | will sell a few although | should probably wait another year
