PREMIUMS AND PRESENTS 
The lovers of flowers in a neighborhood can club together and thus avail themselves of the 
large Premiums we offer for large Clubs, as seen below. One or two persons, by a little enter- 
prize, can change the character of a place in a few years by the introduction of Flowers. Those 
who desire our Floral Guide for this purpose shall be furnished free, so that they need not 
injure or lose their own copies. 
Persons sending $i may select seeds at Catalogue prices amounting to.$i 10

In addition to the above, I will make a present of one of my beautiful Oil Chromos of 
Flowers for every $5.00 sent. See descriptions and prices of these Chromos on another page. 
Customers can select or leave selection to me. Those entitled to more than one can select those 
on Stretchers or Framed to amount of the Present due. Or, if preferred as a Present, our Illus¬ 
trated Magazine, one year’s subscription for $12.00 sent for seeds; half year for $0.00. 
The seeds will be put up together and sent to otic address, or in separate packages , and mailed to the address 
•of each individual forming the club. In all cases the postage will be prepaid. The same deduction will, of course, 
be made to any person ordering for himself alone. It must be understood that this discount is allowed only on 
Flower and Vegetable Seeds by the packet, and not on seeds by the ounce or pound, nor on Bulbs ; nor 
can we pay this discount in Bulbs, or seeds by the pound. Otherwise, it would bring the price far below cost 
In addition to these Premiums and Presents we forward Two Floral Guides each year to every customer; one 
in December, containing descriptions of about all Flowers and Vegetables worthy of cultivation, and another in 
September, containing a list of Bulbs especially fitted for autumn planting and for flowering in the house during 
the winter. In forwarding Clubs, it is therefore necessary to give the names of the persons of which it is com¬ 
posed, with their Post Offices, so we may be enabled to forward them the Guides. 
COLLECTIONS OF FLOWER SEEDS.

their wants.

COLLECTIONS OF VEGETABLE SEEDS. 
Hundreds of my customers prefer leaving the selection of Vegetables to me, and at a season 
when, in consequence of the press of business, I cannot give the time needed for a judicious 
choice. I have, therefore, taken a leisure time to make careful selections, and will have them 
put up in readiness for those who may desire.
