"FIANCEE" 



I have only one complaint to find with Fiancee, and that is, I'm afraid the people will not buy roses 

 when they can purchase carnations like those; it will knock ui rose men out of the business. —

When our representative visited Ber- 

 muda during Bulb harvesting season 

 last summer we secured optioni on 

 the choicest planting stock of TRUE 

 HarrisU and therefore have the best 



HARRISII LILIES THE ISLAND DOES PRODICE 



to offer this season. The premium we paid for SELECT 

 TRUE Harrisii Bulblets is well spent. The reputation that 

 **B»ri;iard's Lilies Are The Best" will be maintained 

 again this season. Careful selecting and packiog of thoroughly 

 ripened bulbs, and prompt shipping is assured through the 

 presence of our agent in Bermuda during the harvesting time. 

 Write NOW. The true type of Harrisii is never too plentiful.
