Come and See 



DOROTHY GORDON 



growing and judge for yourself of its good qualities. 



Orders for 60,000 R. C. have been booked without spending anything for printers' ink. 



DOROTHY GORDON is beyond question the best commercial pink carnation in sight today. Its 

 pedigree, Lawion on Enchantress, alone should recommend it to every carnation grower, but pedigree 

 is by no means its chief merit. It possesses many of its own, such as 



1st Vigorous constitution and freedom from disease. 



2nd Size. Blooms average over 3 inches, of excellent form. 



3rd Color. Resembles Rose Pink Enchantress, but is superior to that variety in being mo e uniform. 



4th Long stiff stem. 



5th Fragrant. 



6th Keeping qualities of the best. 



7th Blooming qualities 30 per cent, better than Enchantress. 



We had a stock of 6,ooo plants last season. The flowers were all sold at the holidays to the 

 trade in Philadelphia at $12 per 100 and uniformly sold for 50 per cent, more than we got for 

 Enchantress during the rest of the season. 



DOR-OTHY GORDON will be disseminated during the winter of 1909 and 19 10 at the 

 popular price of $10 00 per 100, $75.00 per 1000. Strictly on its merits. No carna- 

 tion grower can afford to be without it. Come and see it, examine our books, and decide 



for yourself. It must be sold on its merits or not at all. Orders filled in strict rotation. 



Joseph Heacock Company, 



Wyncote, Pa. 



Wyncote is 10 miles north of Philadelphia on Phila. & Reading R. R. 100 trains every week day.
