New Catalogue for Season 1916-1917 is now ready for 
distribution and will be sent on request. Nurserymen 
who like good stocks, evenly graded, properly packed, at 
closest prices and lowest importing expenses, should write 
us. We will gladly refer to last season’s customers. 
One wrote: “Delaunay’s stocks check up more good points 
in quality, grades and packing, than any others received.” 
This referred to a two-car-load order. Another wrote: 
“Your importing expenses were the lowest.” And this re¬ 
ferred to a five-carload order. The combination of Quality, 
Price and Service that makes Value, is appreciated by 
buyers. If you want something better, for less, try us. 
We have shown others; we can show you. 
August first, 1916.
