Prepare for Thanksgiving and Chrisf mas 



We protect the trade. We employ no fakere, no drummera. No department 

 stores handle our goods. We have great faith in Uncle Sam (the mail). He is 

 our partner. 



Look at the photo ! 'What a lively time at Aschmann's, the busy bee 

 unpacking his big importations of Azaleas, Palms, etc. We have it. Have 

 what ? An immense stock of the choicest salable plants in season and everybody 

 who sees them will be astonished and say, "No use talking, you're a cracker- jack." 

 I am going to make things lively this fall. Five thousand Araucaritta. twice as 

 many Ferns, Palms and Azaleas and many thousands of other salable stock 

 must go at panic prices. By Christmas all must be sold. Why ? We want the 

 room to force our extensive Easter stock. 



WeLeadflieCountryiiiAraucarias 



Have been in the lead in the past; have it now 

 aLd shall lead in the future. 



We have houses full of choice £xcelsa robnsta 

 compacaandExcelsaglanoa; enough to sup- 

 ply the entire country. 



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 

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

 oOc and 60c: a jambo for 75c to $1.00; and a holy 

 terror in size for $1.25 to $1.50.
