Price Reduction 



The strentfblis weather of February completely disarranged our plans, and now everything comes at 

 once. Two lots' of plants ready to go out and another lot ready to go in. We shall give you the benefit of a 

 reduction in price to quickly make room. Our plants are branched and stocky, and were never better. The 

 price is only $20.00 per 1000; $3.00 per 100; 200 for $5.00. These plants, if benched, will- blossom 



from Memorial Day throughout the summer. If potted on and pinched, they will 

 make you a leader for spring sales. Potted into 3^ or 4-inch pots and set on the back 

 side of carnation benches, will yield a surprising profit. While you can get fine plants 

 at a small price make room somewhere. No other plant will do the amount of busi- 



iit tw li tk< in M ! 



ness in so short a time as our 



Silver Pink Seedling. 



Every shoot of the 40 or 50 that it throws is a flower spike. Make room today and 



secure your plants. 

 Now is the time to sow seed for plants to bed out. Snaps are fast coming into 

 favor for garden use. 



ENCOURAGE IT PUSH IT PREPARE fOR IT. 



You will fuss with a geranium for nine months and sell at $1.00 to $1.50 a dozen, while 

 you can get the same money for our SEEDLING snap plants in THREE months, and 

 at one-tenth the cost of production. This is not theory, but a plain fact. Pure seed 

 at $1.00 per pkt.; 3 for $2.50; 7 for $5.00. All orders cash. BYee cultural directions.

There are a good number of visitors

 The number, however, is not nearly 

 equal to that of a year ago. 



Kidder Bros, are noted for their 

 single violets and the attractive man- 

 ner in which they are bunched. At this 

 time, when violets are something of a 

 glut, the flowers of Kidder Bros, are 

 eagerly bought. 



H. M. Robinson & Co. report business 

 as good. They are prepwrw* for a big 

 Easter tra^. They will, as usual, 

 handle a big lot of lilies in pots direct 

 from their growers' establishments. 



William Sim's establishment is well 

 worthy of a visit now. The houses of 

 new Spencer sweet peas just coming in 

 are grand. A house of pansies is an 

 eye-ofWner for those who may never
