PROSPECTIVE CUSTOMER: We are offering tulip bulbs of varieties which 
have proved very satisfactory for growing year after year in this country. We do 
not give illustrations, as they are rather cxpensive, and sometimes misleading, 
especially if in color. We pass the savings on to you in lower prices and liberal 
discounts. Because of conditions we have been unable to control completely there 
may be an occasional mottled or “broken” flower from our bulbs. Many people con+ 
sider these variations more attractive than the pure variety. ' 
THE PRICES GIVEN ARE FOR THE LARGEST SIZE BULBS PRODUCED 
BY THE VARIETY. THE SECOND SIZE (LARGE BEDDING SIZE) WHICH 
WILL PRODUCE VERY FINE FLOWERS AND WHICH MAY BE LEFT IN THE 
GROUND A YEAR LONGER BEFORE NEEDING TO’ BE TAKEN UP AND SEP- 
ARATED, WILL BE SUPPLIED AT THREE-FOURTHS THE LISTED PRICES. 
THIRD SIZE OR MEDIUM BULBS, NEARLY, IF NOT ALL OF WHICH WIUL 
BLOOM THE FIRST YEAR, WILL BE SUPPLIED AT THREE-FIFTHS THE 
QUOTED PRICES. POSTAGE PREPAID ON CASH ORDERS OVER $2.00. 
DISCOUNTS. Because Mr, ‘Wheeler is in the Army and I (Van Voorhis) must 
give more time to my regular work in Princeton University, we wish to sell a larger
