AS USUAL 



The largest supply in America 



PEONIES 



Every indication points to a record-breaking demand on all stock for Dec- 

 oration Day and of course the PEONY will, as always, be the leading 

 flower in demand. We want to warn you, however, that as far as we 

 can see, after carefully going over all the local crops, none of these 

 will be in before June and therefore you will have to depend upon 

 the Southern crop for your supply. 



As you know, we have always handled the largest amount of Peonies and 

 the best quality in the whole country, barring no section, and while 

 our Southern crop will be of normal supply it is only just starting to 

 arrive and will, without a doubt, be of exceptionally fine grade. 

 With the large local crops off the market and this exceptionally 

 heavy demand we would strongly advise ordering at once if you want 

 to be protected and be sure of your supply. Prices will be no higher 

 than in other years, that is four, six and eight cents each. 



Don't forget to order your Boxwood at the same time, and if you wish we 

 will ship it ahead so that you can get ready to take care of the big 

 rush and not be losing sales by having to wait for stock at the last 

 minute. We will have plenty to go around at $7.50 per case of fifty 

 pounds.
