send just the same plants as if they went 
by express, and we sell as few as twenty- 
five plants to one person. But we hope 
you will make your order for $1.00 or 
more. Remember we guaranteee safe ar¬

Prompt Shipment—When you are ready 
to set your plants you usually want them

with us, if the weather permits digging the 
plants they will go out to you promptly. 
We are one of the largest growers of

have been established since 1880. Every 
patron must be a pleased patron.
