A Message to Our Old Customers 
... and to New Ones — 
a We, too, prefer to “Say It with Flowers,” and we try to 
™ express our feeling of appreciation for each order by sending 
flowers ( i.e ., Rose bushes) of the very finest that years of expert 
Rose-culture can produce. But let us also add a word of grateful¬ 
ness here. We thank you profusely for your patronage of the 
past and hope for years of continued relationship. By the numer¬ 
ous letters received from our customers, praising our Roses, and 
by their repeat orders, we feel that we are performing a duty 
well. May we have your repeated confidence, good will, and 
business from one season to another! 
If you are not one of our customers, let this serve as an intro¬ 
duction, and may we be favored with a trial order? We are sure 
you will like our Roses and our dealings, and you, too, will 
become a steady customer and a McCIung booster. It is never 
any trouble for us to answer inquiries, so write us what you want 
to know about Roses, our ,plants, and our service. 
If nearby, visit our nurseries! You’re always welcome. We 
are located 5 miles northwest of Tyler, on the Lindale Highway. 
Should you care to phone us, our numbers are 9003-F3 and 
9003-F4. We may be reached by Longrdistance Call, at these 
numbers. 
OUR GUARANTEE 
We guarantee all our Roses to be true to name and, on proper 
proof, will replace any that are not, but will not be responsible 
beyond replacing the plants. Our plants are also guaranteed to 
reach you in good condition in every respect, or your money will 
be refunded, if you do not care to have additional plants to 
replace them. 
OUR TERMS 
Cash must accompany all orders as we have no Credit Depart¬ 
ment and would only have to add to our prices to sell on terms. 
So send currency, Post Office or Express Money Order, or personal 
check. No orders will be accepted for less than $1.00, unless 
25 cts. extra is included for packing and postage.

■ — A Suggestion 
Here’s a “brilliant” idea which is quite the thing just 
now! Plant a bed of Roses of all one color. What a brilliant 
array it will make! Imagine a large bed of Francis Scott 
Key, Luxembourg, Lady Hillingdon, etc. 
Tell us how your grounds are planted and let us make 
suggestions, or select a special color yourself and plant all 
of one variety in a single bed. Try it! 
Roses from Smith County, Texas 
(THE FAMED TYLER FIELDS) 
^ Smith County, Texas, of which Tyler is the county-seat, is 
™ the largest Rose-growing center in the United States. Each 
season over one hundred carloads are shipped, a large percentage 
going by Iess-than-carload Freight, Express, and Parcel Post 
shipments into every state of the Union, to be resold by other 
nurseries, florists, dealers, and agents. Roses from this section 
thrive, under ordinary treatment, in almost every kind of soil and 
climatic condition in the country, and in some foreign countries. 
McCIung Brothers are producers of Roses on a very large scale. 
Under our personal supervision, we grow many carloads of over 
one hundred varieties, but we have culled the varieties down to 
a few of the finest and hardiest sorts, as described in this folder.
