 that come before the Swallow dares 



FROM NOW UNTIL 



July 1st 



Not Later 



There is no more useful garden material than what 

 are known as Dutch Bulbs, Hyacinths, Tulips, 

 Narcissi, Crocus, etc. They give for a small outlay 

 of time and money an abundance of flowers in the 

 house from December until April, and in the garden 

 almost before the snow is off the ground in the 

 spring until the middle of May. These Bulbs are 

 grown almost exclusively in Holland, and in enormous 

 quantities, where they are sold at very low prices. 

 Usually they pass through the hands of two dealers, 

 and more than double in price before reaching the 

 retail buyer in America. 



By ordering from us now instead of waiting 

 until fall, you make a large saving in cost, get a su- 

 perior quality of Bulbs not usually to be obtained at 

 k any price in this country, and have a much 

 ■r larger list of varieties to select from. Our orders 

 y are selected and packed in Holland, and are shipped 

 ' to our customers immediately upon their arrival 

 from Holland, perfectly fresh and in the best possible 

 condition. 



If you wish to take advantage of our very low 

 prices, we must have your order not later than 

 July 1st, as we import bulbs to order only. They 

 need not be paid for until after delivery, or taken 

 if not of a satisfactory quality. (References required 

 from new customers.) 



Our import price list, the most comprehensive cata- 

 logue of Bulbs published, is now ready and may be 

 had for the asking. We grow the largest stock of 

 Hardy Perennial Plants in America, and will send 

 Catalogue of these also if requested.
