Below we offer the NBW KIND of bucket or flower jar, made of the beat galvanized iron, 

 which is only one of the many novelties we have in store for our customers the coming season. 



After a practical and thorough test of two years this bucket has been found far more dur- 

 able easier handled; in fact, superior in every way to any flower receptacle on the market today. 



It does not break, does not wear out, does not rot, does not chip; in fact, with any kind 

 of care will last a life time.

 Could praise sing more sweetly? 



, Begonias show the effect of intelligent 

 care; Lorraine, the Lonsdale pale pink 

 type, and Agatha, all three clean and 

 sturdy in flowering sizes, giving promise 

 of abundant leaves and bloom. Cyclamens 

 from special seed, own and imported, in 

 airy, slat-covered houses, are of that deep 

 and rich green that testifies silently to 

 care and cleanliness. 



■ This is the home of Fieus pandurata 

 from whence comes over ninety per cent 

 of this city's famous specimens, single 

 and branching, a fact so keenly appre- 

 ciated that the shapely stock in the houses 

 today is spoken for six weeks ahead, de- 

 spite the best efforts of skilled producers. 

 Chrysanthemums form an army to 

 themselves, from Golden Glow in bloom 

 since August 20 to Golden Age that will 

 close the season at Thanksgiving. Some 

 thirty of the best varieties will furnish a 

 thousand or so blooms daily after the 

 early sorts are over. They are grown to 



single stems, two plants together in 

 raised benches. 



There is much more to tell; more of 

 much interest, but it is well to know when 

 one has said enough, and to act on that 

 knowledge.
