Several of our other heavy show winning introduc- 
tions we were unable to plant in sufficient quantity 
to warrant listing owing to the lateness of our sea- 
son, besides many of our customers are growing and 
listing them and we do like to give our customers 
a break by pulling out of competition or nearly so 
before prices get too low. We may have a few to 
spare of the following in small lots. Ohio Nonpareil, 
King Click, Purple Supreme, Honolulu, Southern 
Drama, Frances M. Irwin, Bush Ranger, Beauty 
Clinic, Mary Virginia, Show Boat, Skyline, American 
Home, Rose Defiant, Buckeye Bronze, King Tan, 
Zanzibar, Lavolier and Heart String. If in need of 
any of these please let your wants be known. 
By eliminating a lot of deadwood we are able to pass 
along a better deal to our customers, and we have 
never had any squawk on that score. 
If you are a base runner at the shows let WILSON 
originations clip the circuit for you and like it, 
absol. 
While we have said plenty in our regular descrip- 
tions and do not wish to stick our neck out beyond 
arm’s length, we still do not wish you to overlook 
some of the best buys of the year. Victory Queen, 
Oklahoma, Lake Placid, Flying Fortress, Snow Moun- 
tain, Tony, Gracie Allen; Uarime, Wunisiay Daniel 
Boone, Chungking and Glenolden, to mention only 
a few. These glads are not a patent medicine but a 
cure for many ills.

A last thought. Picture of Snow Mountain on front 
cover was taken at the New Jersey show, of the 
champion spike. On second day of the show it had 
eight open in perfect condition.
