have made more money for growers the past 

 season than ever. Get busy and have a bench 

 or house full the coming season. It is easy. In 

 the same mail came two letters. One from New 

 Jersey reads: "Have tad wonderful success 

 with plants," and from Minnesota, "We had 

 good success-all plants giew strong and had 

 wonderful blossoms." 



We have all the good ones

It vyill be seen from this list that 

 most of the shipments were received 

 from August 21 to September 15. Dur- 

 ing that time 32,550 of the 36,362 cases 

 were received at the unloading point. 

 If, as probable, the tariff does not be- 

 come law until October and if the 

 bulbs arrive at nearly the same time 

 that they did last year, the increased 

 duties will be escaped on most of them. 

 The French bulbs, according to the 

 list of last year, arrived much earlier 

 than the Dutch bulbs. So we may be 

 practically sure that the duty on them 

 will cost no more than last year. The 

 list of receipts was as follows:
