FLOWER SEED DEPARTMENT 



This department is entirely distinct from our Rose and Plant business. It is presided over by those who for years have 

 devoted themselves exclusively to the study and handling of the best Flower Seeds and Bulbs to be had. Whether in Europe, 

 Japan, California, or at home, wherever the different varieties reach their greatest perfection — there is our supply obtained. We 

 endeavor, not in premiums, but in the stock furnished, to give full value, and on orders amoimting to $i or over, we send extras 

 for good measure. We call particular attention to our 1913 Novelties.
