PiTzoNKA’s Pansy Farm 
F irst of all we want to thank you for an increase in business last year. 
In order to give prompt and efiicient service, it has been necessary 
for us to enlarge our Packing and Shipping Department. 
We attribute our increased trade to the fact that our business is run 
on the Golden Rule—well-grown, true-to-name plants at a fair price, treat¬ 
ing everyone as we like to be treated ourselves. 
There are a few new things in the Catalogue this year, and only a few, 
as there are not very many really important novelties developed each year; 
we try to find those few. 
Did you see the 400,OOO Pitzonka Pansies at the New York World’s 
Fair last year? The Fair people liked them so well and they received so 
much favorable comment that we have been requested to provide Pansies 
for the Fair again this year. 
Our Pansy Catalogue will be issued as usual this fall. 
Gratefully yours, 
W. W. PITZONKA 
Pitzonka’s Pansies will decorate the Fairgrounds this year. Look for them when at the Fair.
