We are again cooperating with the government by streamlining 
this catalog, consequently it is again smaller than in 
prewar years. 


We have all been working under difficulties — shortage of help 
and of materials — but the florist industry on the whole has 
overcome them successfully. We shall strive during the coming 
year — as we have in the past to fill all orders as nearly as 
possible, and when they are wanted. In view of the continuing 
scarcity of many items, however, we suggest you permit us 
to substitute if necessary with the nearest similar size 
or variety, and to so advise us when placing the order. 

We will try to adhere to prices in this catalog, but if they are 
raised, trust you will understand that it has been unavoidable. 
In order that this war may be brought to a successful conclusion 
at the earliest date - keep buying more war bonds.
