PRICES ARE FOR LARGE BULBS, -medium sized, bulbs

1/3 and bulblet orders will be generously filled, however, no 
single item for less than 10c. As we have over 1000 varieties

listed, so just send your order at current prices and we'll do 
our best. 
EXTRAS—On orders of $1.00 or more, we always add 
several extra’ bulbs of newer varieties for trial. Look for 
them, 
PICARDY, after ten years at the top, is finally giving 
ground to a few other varieties that are equally as good or 
better when well grown. Some of these are—ALADDIN, 
ALGONQUIN, CORONA, MARGARET BEATON, MYRNA, 
PEGGY LOU, and others. When stocks of these are more widely 
distributed, their winnings will be much greater. It should be 
understood that winnings of the newer varieties are small be- 
cause their newness and higher price has prevented their 
being grown and entered in very many shows. A safe rule to 
follow is:—any variety costing over 25c that is able to win 
5 awards or over is ag good or better than cheaper varieties 
winning many prizes. 
We are probably the only growers who make a definite 
effort to list all top winners, so if you want the best let the 
stars *** guide you. Any variety that can win firsts and 
championships in shows all over the contintent is bound to be 
good in your own garden.
