Did you ever get in a sort of JAM and have to call for help? You did? Well 
you will understand us then. But here is our predicament. Our trouble is two¬ 
fold, and REAL. 
We have too many Peonies. That's plain enough, I think. Short of CASH, long 
on Peonies. LONG ON SOME VARIETIES. We are full of some kinds, and must re¬ 
duce them. 
ON LEASED GROUND. Two of our plantings are on leased ground. We must give 
them up this fall to reduce overhead. 
So, then here is our plan. If you will let us make your selection, and we can 
likely do as 7/ell or better than you can. We will select from our varieties 
which we must reduce - not poor ones, WE HAVE NO POOR PEONIES, but first class 
roots right from this very list, and will ship you one each of the four lead¬ 
ing colors: Red, Pink, Rose and White. A complete combination of colors, FOB, 
here, as follows: 
One 
root of 
each 
above

colors,

NOTE: YOU MAY SUGGEST SEVERAL VARIETIES, AND WHERE POSSIBLE WE WILL REGARD 
YOUR WISH, but we reserve the right to make all selections. 
Among the above are those we paid $5.00 to $15.00 for, and sold regularly at 
$1.00 to $8.00.

varieties and first class roots, and sell to you - - SELL SO LOW -.IE ARE ASHAMED
