SPECIAL OFFER of PEONIES 



We have at this time a surplus of the excellent varieties listed below, whichr Y^e wish to 

 dispose of. Prices based on this surplus only. No charge for packing. Prices f. o. b. Chicago. 



> Will not supply less than six of one kind at the dozen rate, or less than twenty- five of one kind at the hundred rate. 



No orders taken for less than six of one kind in divided roots. 



GUARANTEE 



Our stock is guaranteed true to description, and we will REPLACE WITH THREE any that prove not true. We 

 can make this UNPARALLELED guarantee because of the extreme care we have always used in growing our 

 stock. Any peony is much surer to bloom, and will be twenty per cent stronger, if moved in September, so 

 that new rootlets may form before freezing down. This gives a great advantage to home-grown stock over im- 

 ported plants, which invariably come too late.

 firm the roots well and give a mulch, 

 the losses are likely to be small. When 

 hot, dry weather follows the planting, 

 if the shrubs can have a hosing over- 

 head late each afternoon it will be a 

 decided benefit to them. Ehododen- 

 drons, kalmias and andromedas, among 

 the broader leaved evergreens, can be 

 successfully planted now. 



The Gain in Boot Qrowth. 



Evergreens planted now, and decid- 

 uous shrubs toward the end of Oc- 

 tober, make a nice root growth while 

 the ground is warm. The soil is well 

 settled about the roots by the fall 

 rains and growth matures early. In the 

 spring, if you will notice how the fall- 

 planted stock starts away ahead of the 

 spring plantings, you must be still fur- 

 ther convinced of the advantages of 

 fall planting. Stock planted in the fall 

 is sure to be dug from the open and 

 not taken from storage sheds. Is it 

 not much more satisfactory, in the 

 spring, to cultivate about fall planted 

 stock and watch it grow, rather than
