JLim'm PRINCESS VIOLET vSTOCR 



The Princess of Wales is still the lender of all single violets. There is do other variety on the market that 



can compare with it as a commercial violet because it blooms from Sept. l.Tth to May 1st; every bloom is 



marketable. It has size, it has color, it has length of stem. It has fragrance. It sells when any other 



variety, single or double, can not be given away. The people want it. 



So great is my confidence in this violet that the following Autumn I will devote 80,000 feet of glass to the 



growing of this variety. 



I have about 200,000 nice young divisions now ready to ship at the following jirices : 



$2.00 per 100 $15.00 per 1000 500 at 1000 Rates 



Lots of 10,000 $13.00 per 1000 



Lots of 5000 at $14.00 per 1000
