Greetings ... 
O OUR growing list of satisfied customers to whom we have sent bulbs, we 
tender our hearty appreciation and sincere thanks. It is a pleasure to serve 
such an appreciative group of flower lovers. We thank you for the kind remarks 
praising our bulbs and the flowers produced from them. 
We greet, also, the many flower fans to whom our catalog goes for the first 
time. We hope they will take advantage of many of the bargains offered herein. 
It is our desire to supply you with bulbs of the highest quality, honestly 
eraded, and generously counted. 
Again this season there will be a decided shortage of hardy bulbs; especially 
is this true of tulips, hyacinths, crocus, and all the so-called “Dutch” bulbs. To 
make sure your order will be filled completely, please ORDER EARLY. If pos- 
sible, name an extra variety or two as substitutes, as we do not substitute unless 
instructed to do so; and as some of the varieties listed in our catalog are very 
searce, when the present supply is exhausted we cannot get more from any other 
orowers. 
After the mildest winter on record, in a country notorious for mild winters, 
we can promise the best crop of bulbs we have ever grown. There was no snow, 
very little frost, and an abundance of sunshine, with just enough rain to keep 
our fine loamy soil moist and friable. Our well drained soil, the mild climate, 
abundance of plant food, and cool deep root runs, all go to make the Pacific 
Northwest the best bulb producing section of the world. 
Although there is a decided shortage of the better varieties of tulips we have 
continued to add the newer and distinctive flowers to our collection, until we 
have many of the outstanding ones in their classes. 
We guarantee all bulbs to be true to name, free from disease or pests, and 
to arrive in good condition. If the bulbs do not give complete satisfaction, advise 
us at once. 
We will begin shipping orders early in September, and orders will be filled 
in the order in which they were received. 
Thank you again for your patronage; and we hope that the 1941 season will 
bring you continued health, happiness and added pleasure in your garden. 
Sincerely, 
A. N. and MAUDE 8S. KANOUSBE. 
CAROLE NANCY and KATHRYN MOLLY.
