RXMIRBITION COPS StS 
This collection, as its name implies, is made up of such sorts as are generally grown for exhibition purposes, and embraces nearly 
every shade of color and variety of form known in the Chrysanthemum. We have remodeled this collection by the addition of some of 
the very best sorts extant, replacing some of the less attractive varieties, and have included in it our Newer Varieties of last year, offering 
them now at greatly reduced prices. This collection of Chrysanthemums as now offered will be sure to give satisfaction to purchasers.
