To those sweet pea enthusiasts who 

 would get a more extended knowledge 

 of their favorite flower than is pos- 

 sible from a brief half hour's paper, I 

 would commend them to the following 

 books: "The Sweet Pea Annual" is- 

 sued by the National Sweet Pea So- 

 ciety of Great Brltian, or Walter P. 

 Wright's "Book About Sweet Peas," 

 or "The Modern Culture of Sweet 

 Peas" by Thomas Stevenson, but above 

 all show your interest by joining the 

 American Sweet Pea Society and at- 

 tend its exhibition here in this build- 

 ing on June 28 and 29. 



The Rev. W. T. Hutchins said of the 

 sweet pea: "The sweet pea has a keel 

 that was meant to seek all shores; it 

 has wings that were meant to fly 

 across all continents; it has a 

 standard which is friendly to all na- 

 tions; and it has a fragrance like the 

 ■universal Gospel, yea, a sweet prophe- 

 cy of welcome every where which has 

 been abundantly fulfilled."

 form and color of the bloom. 

 It is a perfectly formed 

 flower and a deeper golden 

 yellow in color. 



It is a variety that will be 

 found all that the name Im- 

 plies. It means better late 

 mums, and you need it.
