 will greatly simplify their solution.

 world." 



Organized purely as an educational 

 movement the League has proved a de- 

 cidedly successful business "boomer." 

 Already special campaigning in a given 

 eity has resulted in the sale of the en- 

 tire stock of every local florist. The 

 League plans, agitates and organizes. It 

 unites newspapers, school people and in- 

 fluential citizens in a way that awakens 

 interest in every home. This interest 

 causes a demand for plants, seeds, bulbs 

 and supplies. 



To the "trade" the League is an in- 

 vestment, not a charity, and a proposi- 



tion to support it is purely a business 

 matter. An orgairization formed for

 attention of .ui ininr-tcd public. The 

 suggestion, then, is ollV-rcd to the read- 

 ers that in common with some hundreds 

 of seedsmen, florists, nurserymen and 

 supply dealers, they unite in sending 

 suUseri])tions toward the financial sup- 

 port of the League. Without doubt 

 these amounts may, if need he, be made 

 payable in two installments. 



Acting as your agent the League in- 

 vests in a national campaign of educa- 

 tion and agitation. To this end the

Expended by the League in this fash-

 to the advantage ot all concerned to
