ANNOUNCEMENT
We call attention to the manner in which orders have been filled the past year. Notwithstanding a short crop and increased values our contract orders have been filled, nearly complete. We feel your Margin of Safety with us, is such as should merit your business.
Hs ❖ *
An acreage will be planted of each variety to produce under ordinary conditions the various amounts required to fill all contract orders, and in no instance will any carry-over stock be used on contract orders, unless it may be mutually agreeable to our enistom- ers and ourselves. In case of shortages a sufiicient reservation will be made for planting stock, after which all orders will be filled by an equal pro rata division of the entire remaining crop delivered to us by our various growers, all orders being treated alike.
Orders will be accepted for the growing of special stocks or new varieties at reasonable prices if planting stocks are furnished, and entire product to be taken by customers.
Orders for 25 pounds of a single variety of vine seeds will be filled at regular quotations; for orders of less than 25 pounds of a single kind, add five cents per pound. Bags extra at Waterloo, Nebr., values.
All contract prices are for prompt acceptance, and are subject to stenographic errors and omissions, fire and all other contingencies beyond our control.
Any claim as to shortweight, packing or condition of the seed is to be made within two weeks after arrival of the goods. We are not bound to either replace or make other amends should the seeds not meet requirements. We are never liable in any case to more than invoice price of goods. Should the final yield of seed be under our estimate we are under no obligation to fill as estimated. Crop failures release us entirely from obligation of delivery.
TERMS — Field corn, cash on receipt and examination; sweet corn and vine seed, sixty days’ acceptance, or if discounted, 1 per cent in thirty days from date of shipment. All prices are based on delivery f. o. b., Waterloo, Neb., or Rocky Ford, Colo., our option.

The quotations below are for our Commercial Grade of seed corn, except where noted. This corn is very carefully handled, being assorted by our own men at the sheller, and is all double screened and butted. We are willing to arrange for higher grades of corn on which we do more hand work, but of course at increased prices. Will be glad to make special prices for these grades.
