Can out of town people join the

main source of revenue to buy the
trees comes from the membership
fees.
Can you get bulbs from the so
ciety in the Fall’? Yes, if they are
ordered from the premium list now.
If your order was left till Fall we
would not be sure of either quan
tity or quality. On the other hand
if we ordered a quantity with the
chance of selling them in the Fall
anything left over would show a
loss and from past experience has
not proved satisfactory.
