IMPORTANT NOTICE 



This notice pertains especially to plants listed on pages 47-56, In- 

 dus ve. 



1918 Plant Prices not "Boosted." Although my expenses 

 have increased at least 30^, I have made but little advance in 

 my plant d pa'tment, thereby not only sharing somewhat with 

 my cus omers but hoping also to gain enough more patronage to 

 coyer additional cost. Will you not take advantage of my low 

 prices.'' 



Plant Deliveries. Plants are sent from nursery where grown. 

 Unless a special time is mentioned, orders will be tilled as soon as 

 weather permits, generally during the first mild weather after their 

 receipt, but not beginning before ISIarch 1. If not received, do not 

 make inquiries before April 15. You will surely get plants in good
