DO YOU KIMONA/ 



that there's one place where you can buy really good Azaleas, Palms, Araucarias, etc. 

 without the least bit of doubt as to the delivery? Many florists have wanted just such 

 a connection for many years — a firm who would fill your order exactly right — just as 

 you want it filled. You expect to pay for such service, but perhaps you have never 

 known just where to get such service performed. Well, you can get it from "Petrick's" 

 — C. Petrick, of Ghent, Azalea Specialists, known all over the World. Of course in 

 order to get this superior service your order must be given a reasonable time before 

 the season opens. You can't expect anything extra if you wait too long, nor can you 

 expect an early delivery. In the Petrick Establishment orders are filled in strict rota- 

 tion, and everyone is treated alike — no favorites. Mr. Petrick solicits through us, orders 

 from firms in first class credit standing only. We can send you a catalog by return 

 mail if you want one, and if you prefer to buy at f. o. b. New York prices, we can quote 

 you that way too. If you are a buyer of such stock, write us — it will pay you.
