Beautiful Pansies Alum I Given Away. 



This is what a pansy specialist says of the pansies 

 offered on p me 629 : 



Mr. A. T. Cook. Dear Sir: — For many years I have 

 made a specialty of growing choice pansy plants — 

 have tried many best varieties of leading seedsmen, 

 and can truly say yours far surpass them all in vigor 

 of the plants, size and number of blossoms, and great 

 diversity of colors. I recently took a basketful to our 

 minister's jubilee, and you certainly would ask more 

 than 20c per packet if you could have heard the words 

 of praise and exclamations of wonder and delight 

 from those present, such as, " Oh. how lovely ! " " The 

 prettiest pansies I ever saw ; " 'I did not know they 

 ever grew so large ; " " Where do you get the seed ? " 

 etc., etc. It is no trouble to sell plants from your 

 seeds — they sell themselves. I have been your cus- 

 tomer for nearly 20 years, and have always been 

 pleased with your seeds and the many " extras." 



H. A. McQuiston, Fair Haven, O.

 visit east is indefinitely postponed. I may pet haps get 

 away by the fiist of September. — A. I. R.
