EASTER 1941 IS APRIL 13th 
Due to the war, this is a very unusual year. 
No Tulips, Hyacinths or other bulbs from Holland, none from France. 
Fortunately, we hove been able to secure some Tulips, Crocus and a few other items (norm¬ 
ally from Holland), from other sections. The demand will unquestionably greatly exceed the 
reduced supply. As a result of the shortage of these items, there is a greatly increased coll 
for bulbs from this country. 
NARCISSUS, (Daffodils), IRIS, FREESIAS, and other Bulbs, as well as LILIES 
In all sincerity, therefore, we advise ordering promptly. 
We shall as always endeavor to fill your orders witl^only the highest quality obtainable. 
We hov© appreciated your confidence in the past—a confidence which has enabled us to 
steadily increase in the forty-four years of our business life.
