NINTH ANNUAL FALL CATALOG 
For Forty-four years we have issued, annually, our Spring seed catalog. In this, our ninth 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.

The present partnership is composed of Ray W. Gill, manager, his daughter Mrs. Helen Miller and her 
husband Cornelius Miller. *Edward Gill died July 2nd 1951 and his interest is now owned by his sons 
Everett Gill and Robert Gill who are partners.
