Boddington's Bulbs Bloom 



Save Money on Fall Bulbs 



by Ordering NOW 



You can save money on the bulbs you expect to 

 plant this fall, if you order them now, instead of two 

 or three months later. 



We have bought heavily of the best bulbs procur- 

 able in Holland and French markets, and will, until 

 July 1st, offer special inducements to encourage our 

 customers to place their orders earlier than usual. 



Send us a list showing the bulbs you wish to plant this 

 fall — Tulips, Narcissi, Hyacinths, Crocuses, etc.— and 

 we will make a special and confidential quotation on 

 your order delivered to \>our door. Our regular fall 

 "Garden Guide" will be ready in June, but the prices 

 we will make you now will be at a large reduction, 

 for the reasons stated above. 



Write for " CONFIDENTIAL QUOTATION " — 

 and write to-day. This offer is good only until 

 July 1st, 1911.
