ALPHA'S FLORAL DESIGN CATALOGUE 



Do you object to making more money? Whether you are a large dealer or a small one — 

 whether you have enough glass to roof a city or not enough to glaze a window, send out 

 Alpha's Floral Design Catalogue to undertakers, druggists, bankers and business men — 

 make them your agencies and march the dollars into your shop. Pay? I should say it 

 does pay. 



The overhead expense is nothing — the cost of Alpha's Catalogues is trifling. 

 We don't have to make a profit on these books — we've got all we want and 

 the surplus is yours at low prices. 



Don't make a mistake. "Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might 

 win, by fearing to attempt." — You can't lose; jump in and WIN. Write us while you are 

 thinking about it.

The Market. 



There are more white and yellow 

 mums than last week and they have 

 improved in quality. There is a de- 

 mand for these. Pacific Supreme is 

 meeting with considerable favor. Ameri- 

 can Beauty roses have been scarce and 

 those obtainable brought up to $4. Val- 

 ley is more plentiful than last week and 



one now may buy it in fair quantities 

 at $6 per hundred. Orchids formed a 

 glut on the market early in the week. 

 They were offered as low as $4 per 

 dozen and could be had in quantities 

 for less money. The varieties offered 

 were Cattleya Schroederse, C. Trianse 

 and C. labiata. Dahlias now are good.
