Dutton's White Lawson, Improved 



Bright scarlet of large size similar but better in every point than Victory, 

 premier vases of scarlet W. F. C. S. ;^5 per loo, for plants in pots; 25 

 at 100 rate. 



This variety sported at Bexley Heath. Quite 

 distinct from the American Sport, has improved 

 Lawson habit, larger stem, greater perfume and if possible freer in flower, the best market white, size equal to 

 White Perfection. For all-round points has no equal. £$ per 100, plants in pots; 25 at 100 rate.

FREE SEEDS NOT ALL LOSS. 



A widely circulated farm paper of the 

 best class offers the following opinion 

 on congressional free seeds: 



"The distribution, as now conducted, 

 is really of small moment to established 

 seedsmen from a financial standpoint. 

 Thirty carloads of cheap seeds made up 

 into 8,000,000 allotments of five packets 

 each appears formidable on first thought, 

 bat the actual distribution is done in

WILDPRET BROS, p*-^ ?c'2l?rsJ[Sf^"*'* 



We are the originators of the True Orystal Wax Onion and are teady to execute orders for this 

 item if placed at an early date. Beware of spurious and cheap seed. If you ask some of the Texas 

 growers their experience in the past years with a cheap Italian-grown Orystal you will certainly buy 

 nothing but our genuine seeds.

 going to political leaders and triflers wuo
