It  affords  us  the  greatest  pleasure  we  know  of,  to 
be  able  to  present  you  with  this  supplement  to  our 
1931  catalog.  The  purpose  of  this  supplement  is  for 
for  those  enterprising  aquarists,  to  be  able  to  order 
from  an  illustrated  folder,  during  the  winter  and 
early  spring  months.  In  the  spring  our  full  size 
catalog,  with  full  description,  will  be  published. 

Should  there  be  anything  that  you  are  in  doubt 
about  water  plants,  feel  at  full  liberty  to  write  us, 
our  full  knowledge  lies  at  your  door.  Also  remem¬ 
ber  that  you  are  dealing  with  the  only  all-aquatic 
plant  nursery  in  the  world,  with  probably  the  larg¬ 
est  variety  of  water  plants  ever  gotten  together. 
This  should  mean  plenty  to  you  when  you  order 
from  us,  the  aquatic  plant  specialists  of  America. 
Eventually  you  will  have  our  plants. 

Sincerely, 

our  responsibility 

While  we  give  particular  attention  and  exercise 
greatest  care  to  have  our  plants  genuine  and  true 
to  name  or  description,  we  do  not  give  any  warranty, 
expressed  or  implied,  or  guarantee  them  to  live  or 
grow  or  give  specific  results.  (No  reliable  firm  does). 
In  case  of  any  error  on  our  part,  it  is  mutually 
agreed  between  the  purchaser  and  ourselves  that 
we  shall  not  be  held  responsible  for  a  greater  amount 
than  the  original  price  of  the  goods. 

transportation 

We  ship  all  plants  by  parcel  post  or  express,  your 
choice,  as  follows:  Plants  shipped  by  parcel  post 
are  prepaid,  BUT  ARE  NOT  GUARANTEED.  Plants 
shipped  by  express,  are  collect  and  WE  GUARAN¬ 
TEE  THEM  TO  ARRIVE  IN  GOOD  CONDITION. 
If  they  should  not,  obtain  bad  order  slip  from  ex¬ 
press  man  and  return  same  to  us.  We  will  ship  by 
express,  unless  advised  to  the  contrary. 

substitution 

Unless  forbidden  in  your  order,  we  reserve  the 
right  to  send  you  equally  good  plants  and  better 
value  than  you  asked  for,  when  stock  is  exhausted. 
We  have  so  many  different  varieties  that  we  can 
make  a  very  close  substitution.
