the possibilities of an increase in the 

 productivity of the land. He was also 

 emphatic as to the need of conservation 

 of soil fertility. 



Dr. Waters spoke along the same line. 

 The farmer had been particularly hard 

 hit, he said, by the liquidating process. 

 He will produce many crops this year at 

 an actual cash loss, and will realize from 

 their sale less than he paid in farm labor 

 and seed. Of particular importance to 

 the seedsmen was Dr. Waters' impres- 

 sion that the farmer was showing an un- 

 usual disposition to sow down more land 

 to field seeds and plant only as much 

 grain and cereal crops as the man him- 

 self could care for.

are now so well known and are in such great demand that you, 

 as a grower or florist, cannot afford to be without them. No 

 other strains are now so popular, nor can you secure so many 

 beautiful blooms from any other. They always bring top prices 



in the markets. 



Heretofore there has not been a sufficient supply to afford growers a 



share in their great sale. 



/ offer you a 

 Chance this Year 



for the first time to secure a select collection of about 

 ninety choice varieties listed and described in my 

 wholesale price list. All authorities are agreed that my 

 new strains represent by far the greatest improvement in 

 gladioli today. 



You will miss many of your best customers if you let 

 them go elsewhere for their cut flowers and bulbs. 

 Send for my wholesale list above described, and also a 

 copy of my new retail catalogue, both free.
