SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS 

 AND ORNAMENTAL HORTICUL- 

 TURISTS' NATIONAL PUB 

 LICITY CAMPAIGN. 



Letters such as the following are 

 worth publishing, for they furnish 

 evidence, if such were needed, that our 

 Publicity Campaign is effective: "Our 

 experience has been so thoroughly sat- 

 isfactory we feel inclined to help as 

 much as we are able. As you no 

 doubt know, we subscribed $50,110 

 when this movement was started, and 

 we will authorize you to increase our 

 subscription to $100.00 a year. We 

 feel we have been benefited, and we 

 wish to show our appreciation. Drum 

 Seed & Floral Co., Fort Worth, Texas.'' 



Here is a shaft for the many skep- 

 tics whose consciences have not yet . 

 prompted them to contribute to the 

 Campaign Fund, and who console 

 themselves with the idea that because 

 people do not come into their stores 

 and announce that they do so owing 

 to the impression made upon them by 

 our national advertising, the campaign 

 must be fruitless. 



If flower buyers were to do anything 

 like this, subscriptions would conn' in 

 avalanches. And yet our publicity is 

 accomplishing its purpose. Flower 

 buying is certainly stimulated, and the 

 stimulation is noticed by very many 

 of our craft, just as it is by the Drum 

 Seed & Floral Co. 



Whenever you see the word "addi- 

 tional" in connection with the an- 

 nouncement of a subscription, you 

 may be sure that the person or con- 

 cern making the contribution is in 

 earnest, and realizes full well the 

 great value of the Campaign.
