TO OUR CUSTOMERS: 
The passing of our “Chief” in September has been a deep personal loss to all of us as well as to many of 
you. We consider ourselves most fortunate to have worked under him during the years past. It is our intention 
to continue the policies under which he so successfully founded and developed cur business. I assure you that 
we are working hard to warrant your continued patronage and good will. 
All prospects point toward a good flower business for the coming year. Retail dollar volume is slightly below 
last year, but the number of flowers actually bought by the public is high. In this kind of a market, the premium 
prices go to top quality flowers and plants in the best varieties. Through the operation of our greenhouse plant 
and our extensive breeding and research programs here at West Chicago, we constantly strive to make your crops 
more profitable by improving and testing varieties, and better growing methods. We consider a very important 
part of our business the SERVICE of keeping you informed on these improvements that will help you grow more 
profitable crops. We have put as much information as possible into our catalog and GROWER TALKS and we'll be 
most happy to help you with individual problems if you will write or come to see us. 
Best wishes for the coming season!
