500,000 Field-grown CARNATION PLANTS 



These are the strongest and best plants we have ever been able to offer. It has been a splendid 

 growing season with us (cool, with just enough rain) and the plants are in excellent shape. Put them on 

 your bench and they will take hold at once and give you a fine start for next season. We offer for imme- 



diate shipment at $5^00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000

THE BEST 

 BRIGHT SCARLET 



This variety was disseminated this season. We are sole agents for the sale of the originator's field- 

 grown plants. This is an opportunity for anyone who did not buy cuttings to get in on the first season of 

 what we believe is the best bright scarlet carnation on the market today. We offer strong plants for August

be planted by the customer is not guar- 

 anteed, but where the price paid covers 

 planting by the seller, the guarantee ap- 

 plies, and in case a sufficient price has 

 been paid a special guarantee of one or 

 two additional years is given. The 

 guarantee requires that claim be made 

 if replacement is necessary, but it is 

 not the custom to wait for claims. When 

 July arrives the annual drive is ar- 

 ranged. A large map of Chicago is past- 

 ed on a board and into it a pin is 

 driven showing the location of every 

 guaranteed planting. Each season there 

 are between 400 and 500 pins in the 

 map. From the pins a route is made 

 and an automobile, carrying three or 

 four men qualified to inspect and ren- 

 der first aid to any failing plant, starts 

 out for the drive. The trip is made in 

 less than a week, sometimes in three or 

 :four davs, and the nursery is in posses- 

 -sion of a record of the exact condition 

 •of every guaranteed planting. But the 

 ibest result is that customers gain con- 

 ^dence and also profit by the sugges- 

 Ttions that are given, the replacement of 

 «tock frequently being avoided by a 

 timely suggestion for care.

The Market. 



The wholesale market was unusually 

 active last week, a condition attributed 

 to the fact that many of the society 

 people are remaining in the city this 

 summer. This creates a good demand

 Funeral work also is brisk and hospital 

 orders are numerous. 



In spite of the hot weather, the sup-
