3: 



To Book an Order 



seems like play to some buyers. Do you know 

 my real work just begins after you have given 

 me your commands to fill your order, to serve 

 you? Do you realize ttiat right then and there 

 you become my Boss and 1 your servant? Have 

 you ever thought of it that way? Have you 

 ever stopped and considered the hours of hard 

 work and the hard earned cash, real money, 

 necessary to secure the right kind of bulbs to 

 fill your orders? No, it's not play, it's work, 

 real work, to give you quality and service for 

 your money. Yes. I have had "nightmares" and 

 felt like a mule the next day; that all goes in 

 the joys of the Business world.

ber of the J. M. McCuUough 's Sons Co., 

 Cincinnati, is taking an active part in 

 tbe management of this old established

 McCullough.

 by orders on hand, an equally good one 

 in seeds. 



The Shoemaker Seed Co., of Cincin-

 the Queen City that carries a line of 

 plants, and they may be discarded for 

 want of room. 



The J. Wilder Seed Co., of Cincin- 

 nati, says that its sales on young chicks 

 were 2,500 last season — quite an im- 

 portant branch of the business that has 

 helped the retail seed end greatly.
