GENERAL LIST 
TERMS AND PRICES 
Please Read Carefully 
Retail orders of $2.00 and upwards prepaid in U. S. $5.00 or over in Canada and foreign 
countries. Canadian customers please secure mail permits on small orders, large ones by 
express. 10 bulbs will be sold at 8 times single rate; where priced as for instance, 2 for 15 
cents, 10 rate would be 60 cents. Please do not order less than quantity quoted. Whole- 
sale orders a matter of correspondence. I usually can begin to ship by December 1, but 
will be glad to hold bulbs until Spring if desired. ALL ORDERS FOR DEFERRED DE- 
LIVERY MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY 20% OF PURCHASE PRICE. No bulblet orders 
filled after April 1, as I begin to treat and plant bulblets shortly after this date. Small 
orders sent by mail at my risk, larger orders delivered to Express Co. in good condition, 
fully insured, thereafter my responsibility ceases. Purchasers should examine package 
carefully, so as to file claim if received in damaged condition. The difficulties encountered 
in getting out an early catalog are many, not the least being the securing of new fall prices. 
I endeavor to cooperate with originators and follow their prices where furnished. However, 
I do not wish to be undersold, and when prices are out of line with those of the originator 
or any reputable cataloger, I will be glad to furnish at their prices, as long as stocks last. 
This does not apply to cut-rate prices. I endeavor to send out healthy true to name bulbs, 
but owing to the conditions beyond my control, I cannot be responsible for the crop. All 
orders are accepted subject to stock and prior sale. My stock is Wisconsin State Inspected, 
Certificate No. 296. 
ADORATION 466 (Klein) Pink orchid with a creamy throat, a perfect blend. Blooms 
early and blooms out all at once. Flowerheads carry 16-17 buds, and of these 7 per- 
fectly placed florets open at once. Bulblets make strong growth and a large percentage 
bloom. Does not do so well in hot weather, so should be planted for early blooms. 
Sure to be popular with florists due to its pastel coloring.

BENGASI 530 (Cave) (Mid-season) Bengasi was a sensation when first introduced but 
must be grown in cool climate to produce straight spikes. It should be planted late 
for best results. Color is a beautiful LaFrance pink with white throat and color deep- 
ening near edges. It increases well and bulblets are the first to come up each year. 
Foliage shows a chlorophyll deficiency but it still makes healthy bulbs. I have seen 
many lovely straight spikes of Bengasi this season.
