HORTICULTURAL SPECIALIST 
KINDLY TAKE NOTE 
Where Bulbs are desired by Par- 
cel Post be sure to include a 
moderate amount additional to the 
cost of Bulbs to cover this cost, 
otherwise orders will be shipped 
per Railway Express. Many orders 
are received each year asking that 
they be shipped per mail with noth- 
ing included to cover this cost, such 
orders hereafter will be sent only 
by Express. 
With acute labor shortages exist- 
ing everywhere it has been very dif- 
ficult this year to fill orders prompt- 
ly. We are fortunate in growing 
most of our Liliums and many other 
bulbs and can ship many kinds 
much earlier than regular dealers 
who grow nothing. Arrivals of 
some varieties will no doubt be 
rather later and more uncertain this 
year but we hope to be able to fill 
Bulb orders as promptly as in for- 
mer years. 
Supplies of many varieties are 
much lower than even a year ago 
and we may list a few varieties which 
failed to produce satisfactory crops.
