NO SUBSTITUTES WITHOUT PERMISSION 
If possible, please give second choice so that we 
may fill your order without delay if out of any varie¬ 
ty. If you do not specify second choice or allow us 
to substitute a like or better variety, we will refund 
the price of any variety we cannot fill. We want you 
to be satisfied and will not send any old thing to keep 
your money. 
Last season we refunded almost $200.00 on items 
we could not fill, besides returning hundreds of dol¬ 
lars where we could not fill any part of the order. 
Demand exceeded supply last year and while we 
have more bulbs this year, please don’t wait too long. 
The greatest amount of our bulbs go out in March, 
April, and May but many of our varieties are sold 
out earlier. A great many of the new varieties we 
have were reserved by people who saw the blooms 
during the summer and fall. Some are sold out and 
not listed in our price list. Please order early. 
We think our prices are as low as any reputable 
grower but we do not try to meet all competition on 
prices. There may be so much difference in quality 
of bulbs, sizes, and so on that price may be a minor 
matter. We always give good count and big bulbs of 
the size ordered. Please do not ask us to cut our 
prices. 
THRIP AND TREATMENT 
We still hear of thrip in some localities but grow¬ 
ers are learning how to prevent serious infestions. 
We treat and we advise everyone to treat bulbs be¬ 
fore planting. By using some treatment before plant¬ 
ing, you may be sure to kill any insects on the bulbs 
and planting thrip free bulbs is a long step in get¬ 
ting rid of them. After* bulbs are dug and cured, 
place in tight paper bags with one ounce of naptha- 
line flakes to each one hundred bulbs. This forms a 
gas that kills the thrip and eggs. Leave several 
weeks but be sure bulbs do not sweat or mold. 
For treatment at planting, use corrosive sublimate, 
one ounce to five gallons, of water in wooden or
