We forea Lily of thm Vattey by the miUiona each year, 



maintaining a constant aupply of Cut Valley 



on the Chicago Marhet. 



You can force Valley 

 with equal success 



if you use our pips. We have a permanent representative 

 at the source of best supply in Germany and we are the 

 largest importers of Valley Pips in America. We supply 

 hundreds of florists who force Valley for their own retail 

 trade, or for some other wholesale market. We can supply 

 YOU with the same grade of Pips we use ourselves. They 

 are even better than usual this year — none better any- 

 where and few as good as ours.

COLD CUTS FREESIA CROP. 



Freezing weather and frosty mornings 

 have greatly affected the 1922 crop of 

 freesias, states R. 0. Lincoln, Santa 

 Cruz, Cal., who has withdrawn his quo- 

 tations on the bulbs he grows, and it 

 will be another ten days before a def- 

 inite report can be made as to how 

 much it will shorten the crop. The cold 

 was sufficient to retard the growth of 

 the bulbs, and there will be a great 

 shortage in the larger sizes, such aa the 

 %-inch and %-inch sizes. It is now posi- 

 tive, he says, that there will not be a 

 surplus of any size. Reports indicate 

 the 1922 crop as not over fifty per cent 

 normal, which will be less than last 

 year. 



White callas were cut down by the 

 frost and there will be a great shortage 

 in all sizes. Yellow callas have not yet 

 been planted and will not be harmed in 

 any way by the cold spell. 



Baby gladioli and irises are in excel- 

 lent shape and there will be a fine crop. 



LIKE OLD TIMEa 



The Triweekly Sentinel-Post, which 

 prints the news of Shenandoah, la., 

 printed the following last week: 



"Henry Field, of the Henry Field 

 Seed Co., says that on Monday of this 

 week they received 2,085 orders carrying 

 $6,899.17 in cash, which is mighty good 

 for so early in the season. It is more 

 than double the same Monday last year, 

 both in number of orders and cash re- 

 ceipts, and probably exceeds even the 

 big days of the war boom.
