THE REAL TRUTH 



N impression seems to be abroad that our firm has 



offered Dutch Bulbs In general at 50 fo below 1914 



catalogue prices, which impression is not at all based 

 upon facts. The real facts are these, viz.: We are one of the 

 largest growers of Hyacinths in Holland, exporting largely to 

 Germany, Russia and England, mainly what is known as 

 **Top Root/' or ^'Exhibition/' Hyacinths, and owing to the 



unfortunate conditions existing: at present ia the named countries^ our market has 

 been necessarily curtailed, and consequently the undersigned made special offers in 

 this country, which apparently brought about the impression above named. 



We have a general line of first quality bulbs to offer AT FAIR PRICES.

The Market. 



Notwithstanding the fact that the 

 weather last week was cool, business 

 has been dull. There is a great ac- 

 cumulation of stock of all kinds. 

 Enough rain fell to keep outdoor stock 

 in good condition. There is a big sup- 

 ply of asters, gladioli, snapdragons, 

 etc. At this writing, asters are goo<l 

 and bring fair prices. These are used 

 for all purposes. Gladioli keep coming 

 into the market in great quantities, but 

 ])rices remain firm. Roses show the 

 effects of the cool weather and are 

 much better in color and firmness of
