DREER'S SPECIALS 



In Palms and Other 

 Decorative Plants 



For Convention Month 



As usual we will have an extensive display of 

 our many specialties at the Convention, and our staff 

 of travelers will be in attendance and will be pleased 

 to show you samples, but a personal inspection of 

 the stock where it is grown is the most satisfactory. 

 Why not stop off at Philadelphia on your way to or 

 from the Convention and visit our nurseries. We 

 are sure that you will find it both entertaining and 

 profitable.
