Bulhs 



A II Properly Labeled, My Se- 

 lection, Shipped After May 1st 



For 



1.00 



I made this offer for the first time in 1904. My customers are so delighted with their 



bargains and tell so many of their friends about the liberality of the offer that each 



season I dispose of a large number of these popular $1.00 Bulb Collections. The 

 proposition in a nutshell follows: Every year, May 1st, I have several thousand bulbs on hand, for it is an absolute impossibility to sell out everything. 

 This ycEir I propose to distribute at least part of this surplus among my friends in the following manner; Send me $1.00 any time before May 1st, and I 

 will book your order for 100 choice bulbs, my selection, to be filled in rotation as received, sifter May 1st. In no ceise will bulbs be sent whose retail 

 value is less than $3.00. January orders will be filled first, then February, then March, etc. The first orders will receive the best selection, although the 

 April orders will receive three times their money's -worth. The February orders may get ten times v^hat $1.00 -would buy if purchsiser made the 

 selection. Many bulbs will be worth 10, 15 and even 25 cents.each. By making such Ein exceptionzd offer, purchaser must pay transportation chsu-ges. 



Remember, please, that this offer is for surplus bulbs only, and hence I must select the varieties. Packages 

 vary in size, and I do not prepay transportation charges. Buyers who prefer to do so can send 25 cents 

 extra, and I will deliver either at your postoffice or express office without additional cost.
