varieties than those named and solicit correspondence regarding 
same. The ones listed have been found by test to be well adapt- 
ed to a wide latitude and are general favorites.

flashy novelties. It is a list for practical, busy men, and we be- 
lieve will be appreciated as such.

land is conveniently located from our packing houses and offices, 
necessitating but little exposure from field to cover. Customers
