 florist's variety that is of the largest size and best form. It leads in production of blooms and the habit 

 is perfect. It is the first in bloom and. at all times throughout the entire season gives an even cut of 

 flowers that cannot be equaled by any other variety. It opens quickly and does not burst the calyx. 

 It is perfectly healthy in every respect. The orders booked to date exceed the sales of any white variety 

 we have yet sent out. Place your order early. Price, $12.00 per I 00; $ I 00.00 per 1000.

ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE TRADE: 



We, the H. Weber & Sons Co. of Oakland, Md., respect- 

 fully announce that The E. G. Hill Co. of Richmond, Ind., 

 have withdrawn from the contract made with us last Spring 

 whereby they would have jointly with us, disseminated our 

 new white carnation, Mv Maryland. 



The variety has been on trial at Richmond, (3.000 plants), 

 Brooklyn, (800 plants), Philadelphia, (1000 plants) and Toronto, 

 (1000 plants). 



Reports from the first two named places characterize the 

 variety as being practically worthless, while from Toronto and 

 Philadelphia favorable reports indicate that the variety is 

 bearing ou1 our claims for it. 



Our own stock at Oakland is in elegant shape. An ex- 



■ | ^kU k a we believe will succeed everywhere. It is 

 tILuulv/lf petitor. Stock ready now. Price for 1 



tremely wet Summer necessitated the holding of stock In a 

 semi-dormant condition after being housed Aug. 15th to Sept. 

 1st, thus making stock too late for the Fall shows. Since 

 Dec. 1st we have been cutting grand blooms, and to prove our 

 claims for the variety we invite all interested to come to 

 Oakland and look it over. While it is a source of regret 

 to us that the variety has not proven satisfactory in all places 

 tried, we are satisfied that it will prove our claims for it in 

 at least some places besides our own. 



We therefore announce that we will disseminate My 

 Maryland as per ou r advertisements, but before shipping any 

 stock we give to each and every one the right to cancel all or 

 any portion of their orders. 



even better than last year. As a red and white it has no com- 

 nth varieties $2.50 per doz,, $12.00 per 100, $100.00 per 1000.
