INTRODUCTORY 
Tradition says we must thank our old customers for 
past patronage. We do. AND HOW. Adding that we 
are short on words to tell you how much we appre- 
ciate all your fine comments on the performance of 
our originations in your gardens and shows. To pros- 
pective customers we say, RIDE WILSON CHAM- 
PIONS and electrify your glory. That inferior show 
complex is off your ticket once you tie up on WIL- 
SON’S. Why? Because they click with the clock, 
straining your imagination. KING TAN and KING 
CLICKS [HE GLIGKINGSKINGS. shtiitch em up 
for your show and watch ’em prance through. 
Sooner or later we all take a bump. Took ours the 
past summer. In one of our plantings in a new piece 
of ground with too much humus the draught took 
its toll in young stock and on digging the bulbs in 
this plot we found a heavy infestation of wire worms. 
Explaining why some varieties are lightly cut in price. 
Sorry to disappoint many customers on Pearl Neck- 
lace, Apricot Model and Little Warrior which were 
badly blitzkreiged by the aforesaid worms. Will have 
them for you next year.
