Whioh BbowB that we are making headway. A good pointer for all. Look! 

 People are getting emarter and wiser from day to day .They have diecovered the 

 eecret that their Buccees in business is due to Godfrey Aschmaon, the wide-awake 

 Philadelphia floriot, the plants which he sella having taught them how to better 

 their condition and increase their income. He certainly has opened their eyes, so 

 that they now know what and when and how to buy, and from whom to buy it to 

 yield the most profits.

I personally visited Mr. Ascbmann's Kreenhouses September 21, 1909, and found that the Aran- 

 carlsa. Begonia Glolre de L.orraine, Boston, Wbitmani, Scottll^merpobllt, Todeaoides 

 ferns. Rubber Plants, Kenttas and Arecas are indeed A No. 1. Have never seen any better 

 plants. The Gloire de Lorraine begonias in 6in. pots are a perfect wonder, bushy and clean. Have 

 never seen bis Kreenbouees filled with plants as good as tbey are now.
