IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT, USE RANDALL'S LILIES. 



You can depend on Randall's Giganteum Lilies at all times. These are hardy, cool grown, and will 

 stand shipping long distances. We have them cut in three stages:— Open, for immediate use; half- 

 developed, for general shipping orders; tight, for long-distance orders. If you are in doubt about 

 other flowers, you can recommend these Lilies with confidence. We always have a supply, and a spe- 

 cially large supply just now. 



FANCY VALLEY 



FANCY ROSES 



Don't hesitate on any order that calls for good Valley. 

 You always can get it of us. We have a constant supply of 

 the very finest grade. Why not have a daily shipment of a 

 few hundred? 



At this time uf year a lot of people have roses of the'r 

 own but find they are not quite up to the quality demanded 

 by their customers. The finest grade roses always can be 

 had of Eandall.

which to fill orders coming in after his 

 own stock was cleaned up. There is 

 a general view that Mr. Oechslin is one

 his methods entitle him to have things 

 foming his way.

 found in the market each morning, as- 

 sisting her sister, Miss Olga A. Tonner, 

 who has a prosperous commission busi- 

 ness. 



Last week many shipments of Texas 

 cape jasmines were refused by the local 

 wholesalers, the consignors having 

 shipped without having consulted the 

 consignees. The express company turned 

 over most of the refused shipments to 

 the E. F. Winterson Co., but much of 

 the stock proved unsalable at any price.
