 — Autumn Catalogue, 1908. Messrs.

 have co-operated with them to make 

 this one of the most artistic catalogues 

 ever issued. Single Early Tulip, Pink 

 Beauty, is the subject of the front 

 cover illustration, and the back cover 

 in a combination arrangement of fine 

 design. The book is profusely illus- 

 trated throughout, and nothing finer in 

 floral half-tone work can be imagined 

 than are here presented, notably the 

 daffodil portraits.

Low-grade vs. high-grade fertilizers;
