Rush your rush orders to RandalFs 



ff 



The true test of cut flower service is on rush shipments— when the market is 

 generally "tight" and good flowers are, on the whole, scarce. You will be glad 

 at such times to have us as a dependable source of supply. You will find our 

 organization both able and willing at all times to take care of your orders, by 

 mail, phone or in person. Roses, including Beauties and Russells, Mums, Carna- 

 tions and Valley are this week's best offerings. Let us put your name on our 

 list to receive regular bulletins of cut flower prices.

A little group of young ladies prom-

 roof of Hotel La Salle, October 12, 

 for the benefit of the flower show. 

 Each held some flowers, Beauties or
