CIRCULAR 


In  offering  you  this  (our  13th)  Catalogue,  we  feel 
called  upon  to  thank  our  friends  for  their  kind  support. 

We  have  now,  in  consequence  of  liberal  patronage, 
reduced  our  prices  on  every  article  where  tlu»e  was 
any  chance  to  do  so  (as  you  will  6nd  by  co«K{>*nBe), 
and  have  added  largely  to  our  list.  ' 

You  will  find  full  instructions  regarding  the  mani.  . 
of  making  out  your  orders,  etc.,  on  the  succeeding 
pages,  which  we  desire  you  vnU  folioto,  and  thus  avoid, 
as  qearly  as  ]  <jssible,  all  delays,  -errors  and  misunder- 
Btandings. 


^  CERCULAB. 

The  original  plan  of  conducting  our  business,  sug- 
gested by  the  growing  combination  of  farmers  to  deal 
directly  with  a  house  near  the  base  of  supplies,  was  to 
ship  goods  by  Express,  collect  on  delivery  (t.  e.  C.  O.  D.) 
only  ;  but  as  time  passed  and  strangers  became  friends, 
the  necessity  of  reducing  the  expenses  of  transporta- 
tion became  apparent,  and  we  allowed  goods  to  go  by 
Freight  to  Grangete,  when  the  Grange  seal  was  affixed 
to  the  order.     We  now  announce 

THE  FOLLOWING  RULES, 

WHICH  GOVERN  OUR  TRADE  : 

We  lumish  Catalogues  to  any  one  upon  application.  The  Sec- 
retary of  a  Grange  can  order  enough  for  the  whole  Grange.  Say 
how  many  you  want. 

We  furnish  samples  of  all  piece  goods  upon  application,  but  re- 
quire you  to  enclose  ten  cents  to  assist  in  defraying  the  expenses 
of  this  department,  and  as  an  earnest  that  you  are  desirous  of 
trading  with  us  if  we  can  offer  sufficient  inducements.  When 
samples  of  other  goods  are  sent  for  with  orders,  you  need  not  en- 
close the  ten  cents. 

All  samples  have  numbers  attacbed  to  cor- 
respond with  unmbers  on  Catalogue. 

Our  regular  way  is  to  ship  C.  O.  D.  by  Express,  subject  to  ex- 
amination before  any  money  is  paid  out.  If  the  goods  are  right, 
you  pay  all  charges  and  the  amount  of  the  bill  to  the  Express 
Agent,  who  is  responsible  to  us  for  the  goods  or  the  money, 
ly  reguestedy  we  will  ship  by  Freight  when  the  Grange  seal 
is  affixed  to  the  order  and  signed  by  the  Master  or  Secretary  of 
the  Grange.  Any  one  unable  to  procure  the  Grange  Seal  and  de- 
siring goods  shipped  by  Freight,  can  send  money  with  the  order 
sufflcieot  to  meet  all  the  cost  of  goods  and  expenses  of  case  and 
cartage,  ^he  two  last  items  amount  to  from  25  cents  to  $1.50, 
ac%rdinclo  size- of  package  and  distance  to  haul.  If  you  send 
too  much,  we  will  return  the  change  ;  if  not  enough,  we  shall 
leave  out  some  article.  In  all  other  cases,  the  goods  go  C.  O.  D.  by 
Express  (we  cannot  ship  C.  O.  D.  by  Freight).  As  we  ship  by 
Freight  to  make  the  expense  of  transporUtion  come  less  to  the 
consignee,  we  make  it  a  part  of  the  contract  that  payment  shall 
b«  made  to  us  just  a*  soon  as  the  goods  are  at  hand  and  examined. 


CIRCULAJL  3 

This  being  an  affair  of  honor,  and  a  place  wherein  we  put  our 
trust  in  the  honesty  of  the  Patron,  we  hope  we  shall  never  be 
called  upon  to  refuse  Shipment  in  this  way  because  of  the  risk  of 
non-payment.  We  take  pleasure  in  saying  here  that  all  payments 
o  goods  have  been  made  up  to  this  date,  although  we  regret 
that  our  friends  are  sometimes  a  little  slow  about  it.  Wc  here 
notify  all  Granges  with  whom  we  have  dealings  that  we  keep  a 
black  li»t,  and  unless  remittances  are  made  without  unneces- 
sary delay,  we  shall  be  obliged  to  place  them  on  this  list  as  being 
too  slow,  and  refuse  to  ship  them  goods. 

The  following  Advice  to  Express  Agents 
Is   sent  with  each    Collection. 

You  are  hereby  requested  to  allow  the  Consignee  or  Agent  to 
examine — if  they  so  desire — all  packages  sent  by  our  House  for 
Delivery  and  Collection  at  your  station.  If  they  refuse  to  take 
the  goods,  immediately  notify  ut,  and  we  will  order  the 
disposal  of  them. 

Respectfully, 

MONTGOMERY  WARD  Jt  CO. 

By  order  of  the  Express  Companies,  we  can  allow  only  the  indi- 
vidual to  whom  the  goods  are  shipped  to  examine  the  goods  at  the 
Express  Office.  This  is  a  privilege  that  should  not  be  abused. 
Consider  that  the  Agent  has  no  interest  in  the  matter,  and  is 
responsible  to  us  for  the  goods  or  the  money.  Do  not  detain  him' 
too  long  nor  scatter  the  goods. 

We  are  continually  receiving  orders  and  letters  with  some  im- 
portant item  of  the  address  left  off.  Sometimes  no  name  is 
signed  ;  again,  the  post-office  address  is  left  out,  or  the  State  is 
not  mentioned.  To  avoid  all  such  errors,  we  ask  you^to  com- 
mence your  letters  as  per  sample  given  on  page  4,  substituting  your 
own  name,  address,  and  how  to  be  shipped— by  Frei^t  or  Ex-.- 
press— always  remembering,  we  do  not  ship  by  Freight  unjess  OiV 
order  is  signed  by  the  Master  or  Secretary,  and  has  the  Grange 
seal  affixed.  If  you  have  no  »eal,  order  one  of  S.  D.  Childs,  Jr., 
&  Co.  (See  their  advertisement  on  page  69  of  this  book).  If  your 
orders  have  not  the  Grange  seal  affixed,  we  w^^l  pocitivdy  ship 
C  O.  D.  by  Express.

Order  as  much  of  anything  as  you  wish,  and  you  will  be  charged 
only  in  proportion  to  our  quotations.  We  will  furnish  blank  or- 
ders with  printed  instructions,  etc.,  free  of  charge,  upon  appli- 
cation. 

In  writing  your  name  and  address,  do  not  endeavor  to  show  us 
a  sample  of  spread-eagle,  but  rather  affect  the  simple,  plain  and 
perfectly  legible  signature  of  J^ohn  Hancock.  After  givjng 
us  your  order,  if  you  have  smything  to  say  that  will  require  an 
answer,  write  it  on  a  separate  sheet  of  paper  with  Post  Office  ad- 
dress, etc.  Your  order  will  go  to  the  Order  Desk  and  your 
etter  to  the  Correspondence  Desk,  and  both  receive  attention. 
In  referring  to  any  previous  trtmsaction,  give  dates  of  letters  and 
number  of  invoice. 

We  cheerfully  answer  all  inquiries  relating  to  any  class  of  mer- 
chandise, but  before  you  ask,  see  that  your  questions  are  not 
answered  in  this  Catalogue. 

We  make  the  usual  jobbers'  charges  for  cases  and  cartage  where 
goods  are  shipped  by  Freight,  and  for  cases  only  when  shipped 
by  Express.  All  goods  by  Freight  must  be  packed  in  cases  or 
trunks  ;  goods  by  Express  we  use  no  cases  unless  we  are  so  obliged 
to  insure  the  safety  of  contenU. 


CIRCULAK.  6 

Wc  give  quotations  or  goods  in  our  House  ;  hence  all  expenses 
of  transportation  and  remittance  must  be  paid  by  the  purchaser. 
No  Draft  or  Check  on  a  Country  Bank  is  par  here.  On  Freight 
bills  remit  in  Currency  by  Express  —  charges  prepaid.  By  PosC 
Office  Order,  or  buy  a  Draft  of  your  banker  on  either'Chicago, 
New  York,  or  Boston,  and  send  us  by  mail. 

No  AyentB  Wanted!  Ho  Cotnmiasione  Paid  II  We 
are  continually  besieged  by  our  friends  who  get  up  clubs  for  us, 
for  presents.  This  is  wrongs.  Wc  sell  our  goods  at  the  lowest 
possible  percent.Tge,  and  if  we  pay  commissions,  we  must  add  it 
to  the  prices  of  the  goods.  We  take  it  that  clubs  are  gotten  up 
for  your  own  mutual  benefit,  to  leduce  expense  of  transportation. 
We  had  as  soon  ship  to  separate  individuals.  We  therefore  decline 
to  pay  commissions  or  employ  agents — on  the  Grand  Grange  prin-» 
ciple,  "Do  away  with  the  middlemen  as  for  as  possible." 

Our  old  friends  will  not  ask  for  testimonials,  but  for  those  to 
whom  we  are  strangers,  we  beg  to  call  attention  to  a  limited  num- 
ber, to  be  found  in  the  back  of  this  catalogue.  As  you  will  notice, 
none  of  the  original  letters  of  commendation  were  solicited  ;  all 
were  voluntary;  and,  as  we  were  in  honor  bound  not  to  publish 
them  without  permission  of  the  writer,  we  wrote  for  them  and 
publish  both  the  original  and  their  letters  of  permission. 


In  consequence  of  recent  failures  we  hereby  no- 
tify our  trade  we  endorse  no  one  "but  Montgomery 
Ward  &  Co.  We  continue  a  few  cards  in  our  Cata- 
logue of  houses  for  whom  we  handle  goods.  We

Perfumery  helps  to  make  home  attractive,  gives  a  finish  to  ihe 
toilet,  and  brings  contentment  to  our  lives. 
GROCSRIES. 

We  do  not  send  Price  Lists  of  Groceries  or  keep  a  large 
stock  on  hand.  We  did  intend  to  add  a  full  line  of  this  class 
of  merchandise  to  our  stock,  but  for  reasons  partly  explained 
herein  we  have  concluded  not  to  engage  in  the  Grocery  trade. 
With  the  view  of  going  into  the  trade,  we  perfected  our 
arrangements  for  the  purchase  of  Groceries  and  kindred  goods 
on  exceedingly  favorable  terms,  and  will,  for  the  accommoda- 
tion of  our  customers,  fill  all  orders  sent  us,  at  prices  only 
Bufi&cient  to  remunerate  us  for  the  expense  in  handling,  sub- 
ject to  the  following  conditions  : 

We  do  not  think  it  advisable  to  ship  heavy  groceries  by  ex- 
press, such  as  Sugar,  Rice,  Green  Coffee,  Soap,  etc. ;  they  are 
staple  articles,  sold  by  all  dealers,  for  a  mere  nominal  profit, 
and  they  add  to  the  cost  of  transportation  to  an  alarming  de- 
gree. To  illustrate  :  suppose  you  order  dry  goods,  etc.,  to  the 
value  of  $20,  approximate  weight  fifteen  pounds  ;  you  then 
order  fifteen  pounds  soap,  sent  with  the  dry  goods,  value  $1.25, 
the  cost  of  transportation  will  be  almost  as  much  on  $1.36 
worth  of  soap  as  on  $20  worth  of  dry  goods.  Hence  you  will 
see  that  our  legitimate  business  is  damaged,  as  you  will  natu- 
rally average  the  cost  on  the  total  amount  of  the  bill. 

When  the  requirements  for  shipment  by  freight  are  com- 
plied with,  and  goods  are  ordered  shipped  in  that  way,  we 
have  no  fuJ-ther  objections  to  offer,  but  will  ship  groceries 
heavy  as  lead  if  requested. 

Teaa  and  Spice*  can  be  sent  by  Sxprest,  with  perfect 
satisfaction  to  all  concerned,  as  with  our  system  of  prices  you 
will  be  able  to  make  a  large  saving  on  this  class  of  goods. 

We  will  purchase  all  kiiids  of  merchandise  not  quoted  by  at 
«t  a  commission  of  6  per  cent,  above  cost.

Schoolcraft,  Mich.,  July  20,  1874.         f 
Editors  Grancer  and  Advocate,  Lansing,  Mich.:  i 

Havine  a  little  spare  time  in  Chicatro,  I  called  on  Mont- 
gomery Ward  ifc  Co.,  at  their  place  of  bnsiness  uri  Kiuzie 
Ptreet,  for  the  purpose  of  learning  more  of  their  extent  and 
mat-ner  of  doing  ousinese  with  our  order.  I  found  the  firm 
occupying  commodious  but  not  expensive  quarters,  with  ample 
room  for  doing  an  extensive  business,  and  with  a  very  com- 

filete  assortment  of  such  goods  as  come  within  the  rangeof 
armere'  wants.  A  careful  examination  of  their  books  and 
business  enables  me  to  say  that  (njs(*7n  pervades  every  depart- 
ment of  the  business  of  this,  the  pioneer  firm  in  supplying 
farmers  with  goods  at  wholesale  prices.  1  was  shown  numerous 
letters  from  Patrons  indicating  a  flattering  business  confidence 
in  the  firm,  and  general  satisfaction.  Having  known  the 
gentlemen  of  this  firm  for  some  years,  I  am  satisfii;d  of  their 
reliability,  and  believe  thev  will  spare  no  pains  to  satisfy  their 
customers  and  make  honorable  amende  for  any  mistakes  that 
mav  occur  in  the  course  of  business. 

with  me.  the  "good  of  the  order"  is  the  object  of  first  and 
vital  importance  ;  and  while  1  believe  that  we  should  eujlport 
h«me  merchants  and  home  int«'rests  in  every  locality  in  pre- 
ference to  any  other,  I  at  the  earae  time  b<'liovf  wo  cannot  do 
so  with  a  proper  rci:ard  to  our  own  interests  until  we  prove  to 
them  ttiat  the  present  system  is  unnecessarily  expensive  and 
burdensome  in  this  :  that  the  number  of  men  and  hoys  em- 
ployed to  transfer  supplies  from  the  producer  and  manufac- 
turer to  the  consumer  exceeds  by  more  than  100  per  ceiil.  the 
nnmber  actually  needed  ;  that  a  large  amount  of  capital  in- 
vested in  various  ways  liea  as  a  deaa  weight  upon  this  supply 
business  ;  that  the  system  of  almost  universal  credit  which 
we  are  ourselvi*s,  as  a  class,  kirgtOy  responsible  for,  must  be 
superseded  by  the  pay-ofyrriqo  in/Mfm.  In  many  places  we 
shall  not  be  able,  by  argument .  to  bring  al)out  a  practical  re- 
form and  convince  the  trading  class  of  the  truth  of  our  posi- 
tion ;  but  shall,  in  our  attempt  to  inaugurate  a  better  system, 
be  compelled  to  apply  the  convincing  argument  of  ordering 
supplies,  for  a  time,  where  we  can  obtain  them  at  wholesale 
rates  for  cash. 

I  have  written  yon  as  T  could  get  a  spare  moment  while  on 
the  wing,  well  knowing  that  the  work  accumulating  during  my 
absence  would  require  ray  undivided  attention  wht-n  I  reached 
it;  and  to  any  correspondent  who  reads  the  Granger,  this  letter 
will  explain  my  apparent  n«gl«;ct. 

Maternally.

iPl.  The  WagonB  kre  better  Iroued  than  all  otherB  now 
manufactured  In  the  country  ;  the  bolsters  are  all  plated  on 
top. 

Sd.  The  Axles  are  plated  in  the  centre,  where  the  Reach 
and  the  Klng-BoIt  are  working,  which  prevents  the  Axle  from 
being  worn  out. 

3d.  The  front  hounds  are  braced  solid  to  the  axles,  which 
will  hold  the  hounds  solid  until  the  Wagon  is  worn  out. 

4th.  All  Axles  are  turned  out  bv  the  Axlotree  Lathe  Ma- 
chine, and  are  therefore,  exactly  alike  in  every  regard,  which 
j^lves  the  great  advantage  over  those  made  by  hand,  that  every 
axle  has  the  same  set  and  gether,  which  enables  us  to  furnisli 
a  new  axle  in  the  place  of  such  as  may  l>e  broken  by  some 
accident ;  and,  as  it  is  exactly  a  duplicate,  any  farmer  can  put 
K  in  in  a  few  minutes,  and  the  wagon  will  ran  as  easy  and 
light  as  ever  before,  saving  time  and  expenses  in  going  to  a

THE 


Pullman  Palace  Car 


The  most  delicate  and  exquisite  Perfume  \ 
ever  offered   to  the  trade.     J^o  better 
ever  imported.    In  retentive  quali- 
ties it  certainly  has  no  equal, 
as   it  requires  but  a  Drop 
to  perfume   the  hand- 
kerchief for  days. 
It  ia  a  combination  of  the  choicest  odors  distilled 
from  the  flowers  cultivated  in  the  south  of  France  and 
Jtalv,  which  is  the  flower  garden  of  the  world;  and, 
as  these  odors  are  imported  direct  from  the  distillers 
by  Messrs.  Bell  Mann  &  Co.,  16^3  Wabash  Avenue. 
Cxiicngo,  111.,  (manufacturers  of  these  exquisite  per- 
fumes), they  are  enabled  to  present  the  Bouquet 
from  extracts  in  their  original  purity. 

We  offer  the  Gfoods  at  the  foUowine;  wholesale  prioes.    Ton  can  have  ai 

mach  or  little  as  you  want.
