POINSETTIAS 



Thou.sands of my one quarter million blooms will be ready In October. Buy them direct 

 at the field. Hacienda Park, Hollywood, Los Angeles. This is the place to get daily fresh 

 flowers that never were short on water. How to get them: First, come with your truck; or, 

 Second, send the real cash order weeks ahead; or, Third, on short notice, the only sure way. 

 telegraph the cash. Your cash ahead in my hands must show me how much money I have 

 to spend ahead to make the whole rush business go smooth. There is no other way for me 

 and for you to become master.s of the situation, and to have the flowers cut, shipped and in 

 your store on the day you want them. Cash is king and gives you here the explanation for my 

 strict low prices in our present time when the dollar is worth only 50 cents. All this is what 

 has been learned from long and bitter lessons. 



Samples not less than 1/2 dozen at $1.60 prepaid and only when ordered at the beginning 

 of the season. Large orders are better than samples even. The grades vary during the 

 season even with my best customers who take the whole season just No. 1. 



One price for the whole season: 9c, 13r, 15c, and 13c apiece. No charges for boxes or 

 packing. F. O. B. Los Angeles. 



As I hardly can afford to make trips this fall to Northern California, I ask all my old 

 customers to send me orders, best for the whole season, now. He who has changed his address 

 please mark this special. 



Note the new prices on truck loads from the field, 25 per cent less. Telegraph ahead.

in about two weeks. Tliese are three of 

 the most important shipping articles. 



New varieties of chrysanthemums are 

 appearing rapidly. Last week some of 

 the earlier varieties gave way to Crys- 

 tal Gem, Chrysolora and Unaka. Prices 

 ranged from 50 cents to $2.50 per dozen. 



Eubrum lilies put in an appearance 

 last week, showing good quality for the 

 first of the season. It is understood the 

 crop this year will be light. They bring 

 around $3 per dozen. 



A limited amount of cut cyclamen is 

 also arriving and is well taken care of.

The stems are rather short, but the 

 blooms are all that can be desired. 



The meager supply of violets, grown 

 for local needs, finds a ready market. 



The shipping varieties will not be ready 

 until the middle of October or a little
