Dreer’s Twelve “Incomparable”

few years, we offer this season thirty-seven of what we consider the very choicest 
and most distinct varieties, and while we fully recommend all of the sorts described 
and offered on page 111, as well as the newer kinds on the op- 
posite page, yet most of our customers only wish a limited num- 
ber of sorts, but want these to be the very best, and it is with 
this in mind that we offer this collection of
