A Word of Explanation 



^ c 



Wf^ WANT our customers to know the very unusual conditions 

 which have existed in the Chicago Market for the last few days, 

 and we want them to understand that THESE CONDITIONS WILL 

 NOT BE LONG CONTINUED. 



While crop conditions, coupled with an unprecedented demand, have 

 made it impossible for several days to fill all our orders (indeed, few 

 have been filled in full), we do not expect the shortage to be of 

 much longer duration. We do not want anyone to stop ordering in 

 the belief that flowers are not to be had in Chicago. WE STILL 

 HAVE A VERY LARGE SUPPLY, and it will be still larger 

 soon. Bulbous stock is here and will soon be plentiful— it will relieve 

 the demand for other things. Already Violets and Orchids are more 

 abundant and lower in price; Carnation cuts, too, are increasing. A 

 few warm, bright days will relieve the situation. 



KEEP YOUR ORDERS COMING 

 soon will be flowers enough for all.

NOTE 



Our big business has been built by 

 catering to the Florists who can use 

 the best there is— we supply the most critical buyers 

 in this market — but that does not mean that we 

 charge more than others would if able to supply as 

 good a grade of flowers.
