Wc are pioneers in the consolidation of invoices and shipments of Bulbs, Plants, etc, for distribution 

 to various destinations, this arrangement obviously resulting in the saving of considerable expense in

Having handled nearly all of the shipments of this class of goods to Chicago and the West for 

 years, and being thoroughly conversant with the requirements of the law and other details, we are
