COMPETITION 



There are two waj's to compete in lily bulbs — price and quality. In competing in price we have come to 

 the conclusion there is no profit in it, either tor the grower or ourselves. So we are competing in quality. 

 You know that lily bulbs is a difficult article to handle successfully and barring accidents you cannot buy 

 good lily bulbs cheap. At the same time you can get them from us very reasonable — we don't make much 

 per thousand — in fact, a florist wouldn't work on such a small margin that we operate on. Under such 

 circumstances don't you think you should trade with us? We need your orders because we must have the 

 volume to make the small margin pay. We haven't any implements, seeds, greenhouse stock, or chicken 

 i:eed to sell you — we have chiefly Horseshoe Brand Lily bulbs. They are good bulbs and well worth your 

 consideration. We also carry them in Cold Storage at considerable expense to accommodate you — why not 

 give us your order for lily bulbs? Try it. Send for Catalog.
