French Lilacs

Should we run short of any of the foregoing varieties, we 
reserve the right to use some other variety of the same color 
and quality in its place. 
NOTE: Each year for several years we have offered practically this same 
collection to our customers and always under the heading, "Greatest Lilac Offer 
Ever Made." Such we believe it to be. We use this same heading because this 
offer is a continuing one from year to year. It is our idea to always offer 10 
absolutely No. 1 Lilacs, on their own root, in the best sizes we have, at a price 
less than these same Lilacs are offered elsewhere, and at a price that even in 
times like these make them a bargain.
