FIELD’S TULIPS 
SUPPLY SHORT; 
ORDER EARLY! 
Henry Field—One of Few 
Who Has Tulips for 
Sale This Fall 
The tulip supply all over the 
United States is extremely 
short this year. Only a few 
of the biggest seed houses in 
the country will be able to 
supply bulbs and then only in 
limited quantity. 
Henry Field is one of the 
few who has been able to get 
tulip bulbs for you. You will 
notice that even with his big 
buying power, he was able only 
to get a comparatively short 
list of varieties. Supplies of 
these varieties are very short 
and everyone is urged, if they 
want any tulips at all, to get 
their orders in at once. 
Henry Field will ship orders 
strictly on a first come—first 
served basis. That’s the only 
way to be fair. It may be 
years before tulips will again 
be available. NOW is the time 
to get them. 
FIELD’S TULIPS 
GUARANTEED 
TO BLOOM 
The picture below represents 
the actual size and appearance 
of my tulips. They are the 
finest in the country and all 
giant—4 to 6 in. around. ALL 
ARE ABSOLUTELY GUAR¬ 
ANTEED TO BLOOM, TO BE 
TRUE TO NAME. They will 
bloom for years and years if 
planted in rich, well-drained 
soil.

Giant Tulip Bulbs. Bigger bulbs 
mean bigger blooms.
