I WE WISH TO TELL YOU- j 
| a 
That to grow fine flowers and good bulbs they must be J 
j planted early in the fall, and we believe that September is the j 
j best month. This applies to all bulbs listed herein except Tigridia j 
j which must be spring planted. s 
s Do not let any kindly radio broadcaster influence you to set ; 
| bulbs in November or December. Planted then they may bloom ! 
I quite well but it will be done at the expense of the bulbs which 
| have little or no roots, and they will be lost or of little use in 
j the future.

Therefore, please order before October 15, so we can make 1 
t our plantings at proper time.
