A FIELD OF ''FORMOSAS.'* 



While not planted so uniformly aHd carefully, the lilies show a strong growth and freedom from disease. Mr. 

 Seitaro Aral stands in the foreground, holding a "Formosa" Giganteum, which has a black stem clear to the top, 

 and which he brought from another field for comparison. From a photo taken in June this year. 



Mr. Seitaro Aral, who supplies the Horseshoe Brand, with five assistants, visited 

 the southern islands in May and June, some of which are uninhabited, with a view of 

 selecting and securing such bulbs as will be of good value to growers who demand 

 the best the market will afford, and a credit to the name under which these bulbs are 

 marketed. 



AVe have a few cases of bulbs ready for delivery, which have just arrived from 

 ^ariois southern islands, and which are reported of extra fine quality. You can also 

 have the common so-called "Formosas" from Oshima— they are ready for shipment 

 now. Write us if you want good lily bulbs.
