HORTICULTURE 



July 29, 1911 



It is said that of the 

 200,000 new automo- 

 biles sold in the United 

 States last year fully 

 one third of them were 

 made in Detroit, Mich- 

 igan. No wonder it is 

 called the automobile 

 state.

 Iron Frame 



Here is one recently erected for Henry Ford, the great 



automobile manufacturer. A splendid big square palm house 



and a two compartment, curvilinear wing. It's one of those 



houses of ours that is more than half iron. Aside from the 



glazing members the frame is made completely of iron. Built 



to last, and it will. Built to grow the 



best that's possible — and it does. Built 



to be an attractive feature of the 



grounds— and it most decidedly is. If 



you want a thoroughly up-to-date 



house built by absolutely reliable 



people, then send for our catalog. It's 



a most convincing bit of convince- 



ment. When sending, kindly include 



and address and we will see that he 



your employer's name 

 gets one too.

FOR SUMMER FLOWERING 



We have an unusually fine lot of Hydrangeas, which have been held dormant all winter. These plants 

 are now in bud and bloom, and will flower in fine shape during July and August. We have a fine lot of 

 blue hydrangeas, as well as pink. Plants are in splendid shape for immediate use, and will flower during 

 July and August — at a time of the year when they are in the greatest demand. 



We can furnish these plants in ordinary butter tubs at $2.00 and $3.00 each. 



Plants in new cedar tubs, painted green, with handles, as follows: Well budded plants in 14-inch tubs, 

 $3.00 each; 16-inch tubs, $4.00 and $5.00 each. 



FERNS 



We have an exceptionally fine lot of Boston Ferns of the Harrisii type; also a splendid lot of Pierson 

 Ferns. Good, bushy, well-grown plants in 8-lnch pots, that will please the most critical buyer, $1.00 each. 



LILIU 



THE BERMUDA EASTER LILY 



We offer a selected and carefully grown stock of the original pure Harrisii. There are only one or two 

 lots of bulbs on the island as good as the stock that we offer. We take pleasure in offering this stock, be- 

 cause it will be found to be very superior to the average stock that is generally offered. This is one of the 

 healthiest and cleanest lots, and will give much better satisfaction than the stock usually obtainable. Our 

 customers who had Harrisii from us last year stated it was the best they had received in years. 



We have only a limited stock, which we are offering, and when stock is exhausted, we shall have no 

 more to offer this season. 



Fine selected bulbs, 6-7 inch, 350 to the case, $16.00 per case, or full thousand lots at $45.00 per 1,000; 

 7-9 inch, 200 to the case, $17.00 per case, or full thousand lots at $80.00 per 1,000; 9-11 inch, 100 to the case, 

 $18.00 per case, or full thousand lots at $175.00 per 1,000.
