There is at present no thoroughly satisfactory scarlet carna- 

 tion. We believe we have such a variety in Aviator and we have 

 decided to disseminate it, beginning delivery January 1, 1916. 



THIS IS THE FIRST TIME A NEW CARNATION HAS BEEN SENT OUT BY US SINCE 

 WE INTRODUCED ENCHANTRESS. AND YOU MAY BE SURE WE ARE CONFIDENT 

 IT'S GOOD OR WE WOULD NOT PUT OUR NAME AND REPUTATION BACK OF IT. 



DESCRIPTION— Parents, red sport of Maceo and red seedling. Color, intense scarlet, very bright. Stem, thin, wiry 

 aud stiff. Flowers, flue, full and nicely fringed. Habit, clean; upright growth; every break makes a rapid advance, pro- 

 duciug a profusion of flue flowers in a very short time. The most prolific carnation ever offered to the trade, barring none. 

 No disease, no grass, easy to propagate. There are larger reds offered, but Aviator will outbloom them 3 to 1. We have 

 plants of Aviator on which we can count 24 buds for the first crop and the houses easily average 15 buds per plant. 



WE HAVE PLANTED 40,000 AVIATOR 



One house is to be devoted exclusively to the production of cuttinsrs. The other houses 



are to produce blooms. INSPECTION INVITED. 



At the Illinois State Fair, Springfield, September 21 to 23, on 11 entries we took 8 first prizes, 

 2 second prizes, 1 third prize. If you want first-class cut carnation blooms, order of us.

 Easter lilies and orchids. A large 

 purple cross was worked in the center 

 and formed a striking contrast. 



J. C. Brown, of the Hotel Eggleston, 

 reports good business for the week. 

 Thousands of asters were disposed of 

 September 25 and 26. 



Charles W. Curtis has put in two 

 busy weeks. Several thousand baskets 

 of peaches were sold, as well as a good 

 supply of flowers. His father, whose 

 serious accident was recorded recently, 

 is getting along finely and is walking 

 about with crutches.
