There is no more useful garden material than 
what are known as Dutch bulbs, Idyacinths, Tulips, 
Xarcissi, Crocus, etc. They give for a small out¬ 
lay of time and money an abundance of flowers in 
the house from December until April, and in the 
garden almost before the snow is off the ground in 
the spring until the middle of May. These Bulbs 
are grown almost exclusively in Holland, and in 
enormous quantities, where they are sold at very 
low prices. Usually they pass through the hands 
of two dealers, and more than double in price be¬ 
fore reaching the retail buyer in America. 
By ordering from us now instead of waiting 
until fall, you save from 20 to 40 per cent, in 
cost, get a superior quality of Bulbs not to he 
obtained at any price in this country, and have 
a much larger list of varieties to select from. 
( )ur orders are selected and packed m Holland, 
and are ship])ed to our customers in the original 
l)ackages immediately upon dieir arrival from I 
Holland, perfectly fresh and in the best possible I 
condition. 
If you wish to take advantage of our verv 
low prices, we must have your order not later than 
July 1st, as we import Bulbs to order only. They 
need not be paid for until after delivery, or taken 
if not of a satisfactory quality. (References re¬ 
quired from new customers.) Our import price 
list, the most comprehensive catalogue of Bulbs pub¬ 
lished, is now ready and may be had for the asking.
