We lead the country in Araucar'as. Have 

 been in tbe lead in the past; have it now and shall 

 lead in the future. 



We have houses full of choice Ezcelga robnata 

 cowpac a and Excelsaglanca; enough to sup-

Will you pay 50 per cent to 100 per cent more 

 by buying from others who are not specialists? 

 Hope not; the wise are on guard. We are going 

 to sell all of them and without drummers. By 

 jingo, we must sell them; an elephant for 40c, 

 50c and 60c; a jombo for 75c to $1.00; and a holy
