IMPORTANT NOTICE 

 Owing to the very great increase in price 

 of all materials used in packing of plants, 

 we find it necessary to make a small charge 

 for same, as follows, much lower than the 

 percentage plan: 



Full size cases $1.60 each 



Three-quarter size cases 1.00 each 



Small size cases 60 each 



Would suggest taking plants in paper pots 

 whenever possible. It is a big saving in both 

 packing and express charges.
