SEVENTH ANNUAL FALL CATALOG 
For forty-two years we have issued, annually, our Spring seed catalog. There was an increasing 
number of requests each year for us to issue a Fall catalog and our introduction of such was delayed by 
the war. In this, our seventh Fall catalog, we offer you one of the most complete Fall catalogs on the 
West Coast. We list many new and standard varieties. Our daffodils are mostly grown in Oregon and 
Washington, Tulips and Hyacinths are mostly imported from the best Holland growers. There are some 
Oregon and Washington tulips available and we will handle some varieties. We send large bulbs that 
will bloom, with proper care, the first season. If you are not interested in this catalog please give it 
to a neighbor. We always strive to give you high quality bulbs and seeds. 
* Edward E. Gill, partner with Ray W. Gill, died July 2, 1951. His wife, Mrs. Madge Gill, is now 
a partner in Gill Bros. Seed Co. 
The Gill Bros. Seed Co. will continue to give the same quality merchandise and service.

the Fall bulbs for Fall planting are usually in stock by September 15th. 
When your package is received, open it so that the bulbs will not mold. If not satisfactory please

SUBSTITUTION 
IN VIEW OF THE FACT THAT SOME KINDS OF BULBS ARE SHORT THIS SEASON, we would 
suggest that customers give as much as possible their permission for us to substitute the nearest variety 
to the one ordered in case we should be sold out. On items of small importance, or during the rush 
of planting season, when time is precious, we may send out other similar sorts, if out of the ones 
ordered. Such substitutions may be returned for credit if unsatisfactory to the purchaser. 
OUR CATALOG 
: This is not a stock catalog but is prepared for the printer by ourselves. Our firm is not a corpor- 
ation but is operated by the owners represented above. With every order we enclose a bulletin on the 
culture of the various bulbs.
