A LIBERAL OFFER. 



The Kramer Bros. Foundry Co. of 

 Dayton, whose advertisement is now 

 running in HORTICITLTURE, are 

 practically the only manufacturers in 

 the United States who make a special- 

 ty of plant vases. Their vases have 

 many features of special value, such 

 as drain faucet for drawing off super- 

 fluous water, adjustable reservoir 

 plates so that they can be removed if 

 customer does not want them in. The 

 pedestals are all made in one piece 

 instead of, as usual, eight or ten 

 pieces, which leave unsightly crevices. 



In their campaign to extend the sale 

 of these urns and vases through the 

 florists. Kramer Bros, are willing to 

 send to any llcrist with a rating, who 

 is interested, a sample line of vases 

 with privilege of returning same if, 

 after a fair trial, he is convinced that 

 he cannot sell them. If he has a nice 

 show room, permission will also be 

 given to fill them with plants for the 

 inspection of customers. This is a 

 liberal proposition which, no doubt, 

 our readers will appreciate.
