 order as soon as possible to secure such seeds as you may want before our supply may become exhausted. Q,uite a number of the flower seeds 

 give, however, been produced in America, and of these we have an ample supply. 



No better proof of the high quality of our flower seeds could be given than the annual increase in the sales of this department and the many 

 testimonial letters received from our customers, of which we publish, as many as space will permit.
