The Florists' Review 



79 



Hit the Bull's Eye and Buy from the Finn that 



Protects your Interests 



Now the time has arrived to stock up your store and greenhouses 

 with the best quality stock the market produces. Every careful florist 

 is turning over page after page of The Review and is anxious to find the 

 ad— what their favored friend, Godfrey Aschmann4 has to say. He is the 

 fellow thai has his heart in the right spot. They all can depend on him ; he always has a smile and protects their interests. 

 f^TLook at that frog in our ad of Oct. 9— it means protection (not tariff protection). It means what all florist stores want- 

 Protection to the Florist Trade ; retail store keepers' protection. 



" Florist Division, Tuskogee Institute, Ala., Sept. 25, 1913.

 Dear Sir:— Yours of the 15th inst. has been received. We beg to state that the plants arrived in very good shape. We wish

has Just arrived per Steamer Marquette from Ghent, Bel- 

 gium, and had on board for me 75 cases of Asalea Indlca of 

 only the best selected varieties, raised for us for the last 

 twenty years by an Azalea Specialist in Belgium. I tell you 

 frankly that by buying your Azaleas from us you never get 

 disappointed, either in size or variety. Our eyes are our 

 judgment, you will receive just what you pay for; if you send 

 us 50c, 60c, 75c, $1.00 or more, you will receive your full 

 value with no measurement quotations. We have the reputa- 

 tion for that; we do the right thing for everybody; and, my 

 friends, please don't get angry when I say, cash with order, 

 please — the profit on Azaleas is so small that we can run no 

 risk whatever; we are not in business for fun, we cannot 

 afford to pay duty, freight, etc. (which is from 50% to 60%).
