May we book your order 



INOW— 



For Shipment as Bulbs Arrive 

 during' Summer and Fall ? 



Orders placed with us early enable us to estimate our re- 

 quirements more closely, and by including your order with 

 ours, for importation, we can afford to sell you at lower rates 

 than in the Autumn, for the reason that when importing on a 

 certainty, we take less risk in having a surplus left. Should 

 we be able to offer anything at a lower rate later in the season 

 we will give you the benefit. 



Thus you have everything to gain and nothing to 

 lose by ordering NOW. 



We are the Largest Importers, Dealers and Growers 

 of Bulbs in America, and handling the unusually large 

 quantities that we do, and being experienced Forcers and 

 Growers ourselves, we are in consequence enabled to select 

 superior stock at advantageous prices, allowing us to offer 

 Superior Bulbs at reasonable rates. 



REMEMBER^^ 



The Prices of our Bulbs include 



PACKING AND CARTAGE and placing free on board cars or boat in New York. 

 You have no duty, ocean freight from Europe, custom house nor broker- 

 age expenses to pay. 



THE NUMEROUS AND HAST TRAINS to all parts of the U. S. from New York 

 give us pronounced advantages for prompt and rapid shipping at low 

 freight rates. 



WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ADVANCE PRICES on any Bulbs, Roots, 

 Plants or Seeds, before acceptance of order should crop prospects, injury 

 in transit or any unusual cond'tions prevail to indicate a serious short 

 age.
