-Indian Chief, 3 Doz. 
-Choice Mixed Breeder Tulips Doz. $0.50, 100 $3.15, 1000 $26.50 
Mixed bulbs, as a rule, do not appeal to the planter because of the 
difficulty in the blending of colors. Breeder Tulips, however, are in 
a class by themselves, and their colors do permit easy blending. 
They are in shades of bronze, golden bronze, violet, buff, maroon 
and terra cotta. We suggest a liberal planting for cut flowers.
