Plant Now LILIUM HARRISII for Early Forciog 



We offer some extra choice Llllfcn Hanlsll which has been grown for us from the original, pure stock. This is the kind 

 of stock that you want for the very earliest forcing, as it is th. true, original Harrlsii. The small sizes— 5 7s and 6-78— 

 are particularly desjrable for this purpose, as they will flower more quickly than the larger bulbs. It' you want to get 

 a little of the original, pure Uarrisii. try a case or two of this. As our stock of this is limited we can nffer only a few 

 ca»es to a single buyer'. If you have been dissatisfied with the Harrlsii that you have forced heretofore, try a case or 

 two of this and see if it is not moie than worth the difference in price over the ^tock that you have been buying. In 

 ordering ask for the puie selected strain of original Harrlsii, which we offer as follows: 



5 to 7-lnoh bulbs, 400 to tbe case, $17.00 per case. 



6 to 7>lncb bulbs, 850 to tbe case, 17.50 per case. 



7 to 9-lnoh bulbs, 200 to tbe case, 18.00 per case. 

 to 11-incta bulbs, 100 to tbe case, 18.00 per case. 



EASTER CaMES EARLY THIS YEAR-MARCH 31 



and a great many growers will want to use Harrlsii instead of Longiflorum so as to be sure and have the plants in 

 flower in time, as the season is going to be shon for Japan Longiflorum. The crop of Harrlsii this year is the shortest 

 It has been in years, and in view of the extra demand, we advise those who have not already covered their require- 

 ments to lose no time doing so. 



For very earliest forcing— Christmas and later— we recommend the pure Harrlsii offered above, but for later 

 forcing for Easter, our customers will find the regular stock offered below first-class stock— much better than the aver- 

 age stock usually offered. We can quote the regular stock as follows: 



6 to 7-lnob bulbs, 850 to tbe case, $14.00 per case. 



7 to 9-lnob bulbs, 200 to tbe case, 15.00 per case. I' 

 9 to 11-inob bulbs, 100 to tbe case, 15.00 per case.

ing kind of way," Mr. Mann pursued, 

 "and told me that if I didn't remove a 

 box from the adjoining vacant lot he 

 would smash my nose. I told him I 

 wasn't a fighter, and as I turned to at- 

 tend to my work he kicked plaster from 

 the wall and threw three of my best 

 plants into the street. ' ' 



McNamara, who was accused c>£ mali- 

 cious mischief, told the court that he had 

 been awarded possession of the vacant lot

 saw Mr. McNamara kicking holes in the 

 wall plaster and hurling pots containing 

 plants through ine doorway to the street.
