BURNETT BROS.' RELIABLE BULBS 
FOR FORCING AND OUTDOOR PLANTING 
All bulbs sent out by us are true to name, of the largest size, and 
selected only from those sorts which are the cream of the Holland 
market. 
Therefore, they should not be confounded with the small-sized, 
low-priced bulbs usually sold.
