Our long experience in this particular branch of our business has enabled us to select the proper plants for forc¬ 
ing and also prepare them for you. Before shipping, this material is properly frost cured and handled at times 
best adapted for the purpose. Most all hardy plants for forcing should be started off in cool temperature for 
about two weeks and later increased ta regular Carnation temperature. 
We are listing on these two pages the popular varieties together with cultural hints. For complete descriptions, 
please consult our regular alphabetical listing. If you wish further information, we will be very glad if you will 
call on us. May we suggest that you place your order early so that we can make reservations of this especially 
prepared forcing material for shipment at the proper time. This will assure you additional profits during the dull 
winter months.
