APPEAL TO THE TRADE: 



The recent decree of the French goverament, forbidding all 

 trading with the enemy, put our Provence seed growing people in 

 an anxious situation. During many years I was growing, with the 

 aesistance of well chosen, clever and honest cultivators, big and 

 numerous sorts of seeds for the enemy. These seeds are now lying 

 here to be sold. I therefore beg to make appeal to the British seeds- 

 men, both of England and colonies, to take a friendly, sympathetic 

 and patriotic view of it by passing me your order.

An Egg for 

 an Onion 



An onion is a poor substitute 

 for an egg and vice versa. 

 Bat it is a better substitute 

 than any flower you can sub- 

 stitute for an Easter Lily. 

 Growers who do without 

 Easter Lilies all through the 

 year, will soon do without 

 certain orders all through the 

 year. The American public 

 do not like to take substituted 

 articles — you may sell them 

 something else once — but 

 when they want lilies next 

 time, they will be sure to go 

 where they can get them. And 

 why should you not have lilies 

 all the time? Nothing you 

 can grow is so appropriate for 

 many purposes as lilies, and 

 nothing is more profitable if 

 you handle them right. Why 

 every florist does not have 

 lilies all the time is beyond 

 us, and you have no more 

 excuse for not having them 

 than a grocer has for being 

 out of sugar. If you have no 

 room, buy the cut flowers of 

 reliable commission houses or 

 growers, but have them — all 

 the time. To those who can 

 grow their own we recommend 

 Horseshoe Brand bulbs— be- 

 cause we know they are better 

 than the average brand and 

 will give satisfactory results 

 when properly handled. 

 Write us. Prices reasonable.
