MAILING TROPICAL FISH DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS 
We issue a special list of varieties that adapt themselves 
well for mailing in small mason jars. Enough airspace is left 
in the jars and the jars are packed in cotton to prevent break¬ 
age. We tried this method of shipping last year with wonder¬ 
ful results. Needless to mention they can only be mailed dur¬ 
ing warm weather in June, July and August. If interested, 
send for our special summer list issued June 1. All fish in 
this list are quoted postpaid.
