A SPECIAL LIGHT MIXTURE 



GLADIOLI Hffi FLORISTS 



What do You Think of This 



Inparalleled 



You cannot duplicate the 

 quality for several 

 times the price. 



There are varieties in this 

 mixture you would 

 not sell for $15.00 

 per 100. 



The vitality and power 

 of multiplication is 

 exceptional.

 Dear Sir:

enter my— our order for thousand 



of your Meadowvale Florists' Light Mixture to 



be shipped via, freight— express about 



P O. B. Berlin. N. Y.

 you with the understanding that if given proper 

 soil and cultivation, we can. after blooming this 

 season (1907) conscientiously say we have not 

 received full value I— we can. at harvest time,

Town County. 



State 



This order has been accepted and entered 

 under the above conditions. 



Berlin. N. Y 190. 



For forcing I can recom- 

 mend it as bein^ 

 almost equal to the 

 best named varieties 

 generally used for 

 that purpose. 



It contains named novel- 

 ties of merit, and 

 hybrids bred especially 

 to supply the needs 

 of Florists requiring 

 li^ht colors. 



Having for many years experimented extensively to the end of supplying a White and Light Mixture especially 

 adapted to the Florists' trade, for Funeral and Decorative work where light colors alone would be appropriate, I am 

 now prepared to furnish my Meadowvale Florists' Light Mixture, which I can guarantee to contain the best quality 

 obtainable in the world at the price. There is such a variation in Florists' Mixtures, as generally offered, that I do 

 not wonder at the frequent disgust of the purchaser, and in my preparation of this stock I have endeavored to 

 eliminate every variety with which the most critical florist could find fault. 



This Mixture was offered last Spring for the first time and over 500,000 were placed and not one complaint 

 received, a sure indication that it was favorably received by the Florists. For this season, 1907, it will be sold 

 only by me and in lots of not less than 1000 or more. Price. $i5 00 per 1000, F. O. B. Berlin, N. Y., cash with 

 order, and will be sold subject to the conditions on above order blank. 



This offer will hold good as long as the stock lasts and orders will be entered in their turn, although shipment 

 may not be required until later. When the stock is all sold, this offer will be withdrawn, without further notice, 

 therefore do not delay and miss it. May I not have the opportunity of demonstrating that I have a Mixture which, 

 after growing one season, you would not part with for double the price paid? If so, fill out the order blank and 

 send to me with remittance and I will sign and return duplicate to you. 



Xllnstrated Catalogrne of Other Collections, Mixtures and Named Varieties will be Mailed upon Application.
