The Florists^ Review 



59 



WE give below selections from 

 our trade list especially suit- 

 able for the Florist at this 

 time of year. 



It will be noted that the prices are 

 somewhat below the market, as we 

 have considerable stocks of most items. 

 Like all Thorburn Seeds and Bulbs, 

 however, they have been selected with 

 care and are of the best quality.

SOLOMON DIED 930 B. C. 



Since then we have had no one 

 quite 80 wise except in their own 

 opinion of themselves. A man 

 never realizes how ignorant he really 

 is until he has become learned. A 

 well educated man does not refer 

 to his attainments, because he 

 realizes there is so much he does 

 not know, which he may learn by 

 listening to others. Our Maker 

 gave us two eyei and one tongue, 

 80 we may see twice as much ai is 

 good to say. Self-laudatory men 

 are usually successful in inverse 

 ratio to their idea of their own 

 ability. So it does not pay to 

 "know too much," nor to think 

 too much of what you have done. 

 Same relative to lily bulbs — the 

 more we know about them, the 

 more we see we have to leam. So 

 we are always thankful to leam new 

 things about lilies, to promote the 

 quality of Horseshoe Brand. This 

 has been our position for twelve 

 years, and as a result Horseshoe 

 Brand Lily Bulbs are superior to 

 any brand in the world, and used 

 more by large consumers than other 

 brands because of their productive 

 powers. Try a case or more. Plant 

 Cold Storage Giganteum now for 

 July flowers, and Auratum, Rubrum 

 and Album for summer flowering 

 outside. Especially Magnificum, if 

 you want a nice outside show in 

 September.
