FOR 1903 



Philadelphia, January, 1903. 



TO OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS: 



Again we have the pleasure of greeting our many customers through the medium of our Annual Catalogue, which we have en- 

 deavored to improve over all past issues. It may be needless for us to tell our many permanent customers of the excellent quality of 

 our Seeds, Plants and Bulbs; but to those who receive this catalogue, and who have never used our goods, we wish to speak con- 

 cerning the care that is given our stock, both in its production and handling 



1903 will complete our sixty-fifth continuous year in this business, a record to be proud of, but it is a greater satisfaction to 

 know that our efforts to supply only the best quality of goods have been appeciated. 



Our facilities for handling the large volume of business we receive are so complete that even during the busiest months we 

 can make prompt deliveries of goods. Our Warehouse and Salesroom are located at 714 Chestnut Street, the centre of the business 

 district and one square from the Post-office, besides being close to all shipping stations, thus enabling us to make prompt shipments 

 to all sections. 



Our Experimental and Trial Grounds are at Riverton, N. J., where also is located our extensive range of Greenhouses and 

 our Nursery Grounds, concerning which more will be found on the next page. 



Being aware of the general and widespread prosperity now being experienced throughout the country, particularly by those 

 engaged in rural pursuits, and in anticipation of the increased demand for our goods which must follow, we have made extensive 

 preparations, and are now in possession of the largest and best stock of Seeds, Plants, Bulbs, etc., that we have ever had, and. 

 therefore ask that you kindly favor us with your orders. 

 . Very truly yours, 



HENRY A. DREER. 



The full worth of their money to all is the broad principle in which we always deal, and we refer to our reputation as 



evidence that we live up to the precept.
