SHIPPING 
We can ship anytime within reason, if we ship by express. Ordi- 
narily, we like to start shipping in March, but we always check 
weather reports before we ship, especially to the colder states. We 
would appreciate your putting an approximate shipping date on your 
order to guide us. If you want something in a hurry, just say so on 
your order and we will do our best to get it going for you. 
SUBSTITUTIONS 
We do not substitute unless you give us permission to do so. On 
orders received early in the season, there is hardly any need to sub- 
stitute, as our stocks are full. But, as you get further along, March 
15th and later, the stocks are beginning to show bare spots, and we 
would like to have your permission to substitute sizes if possible after 
that date. We would like also to have your permission to substitute 
varieties on all late orders. In the event we do substitute, we will give 
you full value in the substitution, a better variety if possible. 
PRICES AND TERMS 
We have tried to keep our prices in line with our costs. We do not 
try to undersell the other fellow, we would prefer to give you good 
bulbs, free from disease, thrips, etc., at a fair price to both you and 
ourselves, than to give you poor bulbs at a cheap price. 
Where a minimum quantity is shown, such as 5/25c—please do not 
order less than the minimum shown. Most of the prices shown will 
give the each price and also the ten price. If you order five bulbs, you 
may use half the ten price. We are listing also bulbs in one hundred 
quantities. We might be able to supply some of the other varieties 
in hundred lots, but unless you find the item you want on the whole- 
sale list, please contact us for hundred prices before you order. 
Shipment of bulbs purchased on the hundred basis will be made 
F.O.B. Aurora. In other words, you pay transportation charges. If 
you order both wholesale and retail items, we will include extras 
enough to make up the transportation on the retail items. 
We prepay shipping costs on retail orders over $5.00. Under that 
amount, please add $.35 to cover shipping and packing. If the $.35 is 
too much, we will make it up in extras. 
ARASAN 
All our bulbs are dusted with a mixture of Arasan and DDT. This 
is done when we clean the bulbs, and they are ready for planting 
without any further treatment. This gives us excellent disease control. 
Our purchases are all dusted with the same mixture as soon as received, 
or they are dusted with straight Arasan as they are being planted. 
We put a few bulbs in a bag, a spoonful or so of Arasan and shake the 
bag well. This coats the bulbs with the dust and then we plant them. 
Much easier than dipping or soaking,—so much faster. Even if you 
dust the bulbs and cannot plant them, no harm is done, which is not 
the case with some soaks. We have eight ounce cans of Arasan 
available at $1.50 if you cannot locate locally.
