Tips and Pointers on 
Ordering 
There will be very, many scarce items for the 
1947 season. Chief among these are Rose 
Bushes, Lilies and Gladiolus. In fact all bulbous 
items can be marked as scarce. For this reason 
we oOdvise vou to place your orders for these 
items as early as possible. Also, allow us the 
Privilege of substitution on such items as Gladi- 
olus and Roses, and state so on your order 
for much valuable time is lost in cross-corre- 
spondence, and many disappointments ensue in 
the delay. 
In ordering small quantities of rerennial 
plants in which transportation is paid by the 
purchaser, use your judgment in including 
postage. This will eliminate the necessity of 
Our sending small plant shipments by express 
on which the minimum charge is 46c. Twenty 
to twenty-five cents will cover most parcel post 
shipments on an order of three plants. 
It is always advisable to include special in- 
structions or requests for information on a 
separate sheet of paper. The order sheet 
should be used for ordering only. This will 
facilitate the shipping of your order. 
Again allow us to request your kind indulg- 
ence and patience in the filling of your orders. 
Power Driven Tools 
Last year we accepted orders for and 
delivered a limited amount of power 
driven lawn mowers and hedge trimmers. 
At the present time we definitely know 
we can supply electric hedge trimmers in 
a new and improved form, the Accmatool 
Hedge-Klip which is being manufactured 
ina much more practical form, lighter in 
weight than the original. 
The situation in regard to power 
mowers is quite unsatisfactory, At the 
present time we are able to assure de- 
livery of the electric-powered Sensation 
Mower, more so than the gasoline driven 
types. We will continue to accept orders 
and feel sure that we can deliver these 
power driven mowers as readily as anyone 
else, but deliveries are definitely uncer- 
tain, and our suggestion is that orders for 
this equipment should be placed without 
delay. 
Barring unforeseen events interfering 
with the production of this material, every 
order we accept this year should be filled.

SEEDS AND BULBS 
The Why of Home - Grown 
Vegetables 
Home grown vegetables came into their 
own during the War when Victory Gar- 
dening was the patriotic and~common- 
sense tning to do. 
Many succulent items such as Sweet 
Corn, Watermelons and Cucumbers were 
proscribed because of the space required 
to grow them, and it was for that reason 
we introduced our famous ‘‘/MIDGET 
VEGETABLES’: Mason‘s Golden Midget 
Corn, Schling’s Midget Watermelon, and 
Tiny Tim Tomato. The novelty of these 
vegetables actually captured prize pub- 
licity spots in national magazines and in 
the press in general. 
Those who contemplate abandoning 
vegetables should realize that store 
bought garden produce can never equal 
the succulence of the home grown kind. 
Lettuce is one item that should be grown 
at home as well as the famous Midgets. 
For that reason we have. added the 
Famous Bibb and new Bronze Beauty 
Lettuce to make a perfect collection of 
vegetables to be grown by the small home 
gardener, 
come a Memory.’ Hs
