BETTER MUMS 

The necessity of clean, healthy Carnation cut- 
tings is fully as important to the grower as Mum 
cuttings that he can depend upon. Because we are 
cut flower growers ourselves, as well as dealers in 
Carnation cuttings, we realize how vital good stock 
is to our customers. 
With this thought foremost in our mind we have 
spared no effort to obtain the very best possible 
sources of supply for our Carnation cuttings. How- 
ever, we cannot stress too strongly the importance 
of ordering early if you want real quality. For ex- 
ample, the new variety ‘’Netta’’, with practically 
no advertising, has sold 400,000 cuttings and no 
more will be available until the winter of ‘48-49. 
If your stock is disease infested or if you’ve been 
wanting to try several of those better new varieties 
right now is the time to give us your order. We'll 
give it our very best attention. 
Minimum order 100 of a variety. 250 cuttings of a 
variety at the 1000 rate. Prices subject to change.
