tions are for our best grades of recleaned seed, and we know that the price is low for such
grades

After the seed arrives, examine it, test it or have it
inspected and tested by the United States Inspector,
the State Botanist, or the U.S. Department of Agri-
culture. Then you be the judge. If their report or test
is not satisfactory, or if for any reason, or without any

ABOUT WARRANTING. We thoroughly test
all our seeds and
nothing is sent out which we do not belive to be good
on ever respect. However, we do not believe to be good
press or implied, as to description, quality, productive-
ness, or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs or plants
we send out, and we will not be in any way responsible
for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept the
goods on these terms, they are at once to be returned,
and the money paid for same will be refunded.

SHIPPING: There are five express companies and
fifteen railroad lines at Des Moines, so
that quick shipments can be made to any town in the
United States. All prices quoted, unless stated other-
wise, are f. o. b . Des Moines, the customer to pay freight
or express charges, At the pound rate we prepay the
postage.

DELIVERY: When we quote a delivery price it
means simply that we prepay tbe
freigbt, express charges or postage.
Many of our farmer customers live at railroad sta-
tions where there are no agents. In such cases we
must request tbem to send sufficient money to prepay
freight charges on heavy shipment: also in cases
where perishable or other goods are ordered to be sent
by freight or express to such great distances tbat cost
of transportation will nearly or quite equal the value
of the goods.

NOTICE: We have in our employ an EXPERT
SEED ANALYST who has been train-
ed in tbe U. S. Department of Agriculture at
Washington, D. C., and who inpects and analyzes
our Clover and Grass Seeds under the Microscope,
and tests their vitality. Tbe thorough training re-
ceived in the government service amply qualifies
for accurate and reliable work; therefore we know,
as near as any dealer can know, that
OUR SEEDS ARE RIGHT.
