WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS 



UNPARALLELED OFFER

 the quafity for several 

 times the price.

This order has been accepted and entered 

 under the above conditions. 



Berlin, N, Y 1910 



For forcing I can 

 recommend it as being 

 almost equal to the best 

 named varieties gen- 

 erally used for that 

 purpose. 



It contains named 

 novelties of merit, and 

 hybrids bred especially 

 to supply the needs of 

 Florists requiring light 

 colors. 



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

 •'.><pecially 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' Mix- 

 tures, as generally offered, that I do not wonder at the frequent disgust of the purchaser, and in my prepara- 

 tion of this stock I have endeavored to eliminate every variety with which the most critical florist could 

 tind fault, annually adding desirable varieties and roguing each year more closely. 



This Mixture was first offered by me in 1906 since which time I have been unable to supply the demand. 

 I have, however, this year a go.od stock and invite a trial from those not acquainted with, and increased orders 

 from those who know its merits. For this season. 1910, it will be sold only by me and in lots of not less 

 than 1,000 or more. Price, $15.00 per 1,000, F. O. B. Berlin, N. Y., cash with order, and will be sold subject 



'0 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 When the stock is all sold, this offer will be withdrawn, without 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.
