To My Patrons: —

For convenience of our customers we
ask early consideration and the ordering
of Roses, Fruit Trees, and Shrubs.

To those who have never dealt with us,
but whom we should like to include among
cur friends, we shall be glad to demonstrate
the high quality of our stock, our ability to
handle all orders and high-class methods
of doing business.

Your generous patronage during the last
year is appreciated, and I shall endeavor
to merit a continuance of the same.
