♦♦♦SPECIAL NOTICE TO UNITED STATES OLIENTS*^* 
At the time of preparation of this list, our Government requires that 
special importation permits be secured from the Bureau of Plant Quar¬ 
antine,U* S.Dept, of Agriculture. Permits are free and owners of good 
collections are having no trouble in securing them* We will make out 
the application blanks for our clients. 
However, a hearing is to be held in Washington during October,to con¬ 
sider changing the importation regulations. It is generally believed 
that they will be liberalized. In case it is made possible to sell 
plants after they have been imported under permit and inspected,we 
will import all orders under our own permits. 
Remember that plants to be furnished from this list will be much bet¬ 
ter plants than can be furnished for the sau'ne money from the propa^ga- 
tions from our stock in Anaheim.
