The World's Championship 



in florists' supplies was captured by 



M. RICE & CO. 



the leading florist supply house, at the 26 th annual.con- 

 vention of the S. A. F. and O. H., at Rochester, N. Y., 

 August 16, 17 and 18th, the judges deciding to award an 



Honorable Mention 



to our exhibit and to 



None Other 



We exhibited novelties only, feeling sure that the florists 

 of America knew the high quality of the leading florists' 

 supply house's supplies. Our novelties included : 



Spun Glass and Velvet Butterflies, Crepe Paper that is 

 frost and water-proof, Cork Wood and Twig Baskets, real 

 Panama Hats, Bridal Scarfs, Violet Corsage Shields, Pre- 

 pared Cycas Leaves and many other fine novelties. 



^ To be successful is to be progressive. Be not satisfied 

 with ordinary supplies, use only the best. The judges of 

 the Society of American Florists have placed the stamp 

 of their approval on the exhibit of M. Rice & Co. and 

 on none other. Can we offer you stronger inducements 

 to buy of us? 



^ We will only add that we will extend you every courtesy.
