Februaby 17, 1910. 



'^■niMal Have you sent us an order for your stock of Carnation Dorothy Gordon? Easy to put It oft-but our supply is limited, orders 



-^ ■ ■ ^^ J are piling in every day. and some of you who are planninR to grow this splendid Carnation for your trade this year are going 

 ^^Aln llUla to be disappointed. 



*^^'"*" ^^ •■■• This magnificent flower made a big " hit " at the Pittsburg meeting, but that didn't surprise us any, for a great many of 

 our friends In the trade tong ago learned that for re»l, substantial profits 



Carnation Dorothy Gordon 



stood away up at the top of the list. We know we " harp " a lot about 

 its merits, but when you know this grand new variety as we do, yon'll 

 be enthusiastic, too Flowers fragrant and uniform in color— a little 

 darker than E>lnk Enchantress; very large— size 3 inches or more in 

 diameter— buds of good substance and very lasting. All these features 

 speU profits for growers of Carnation Dorothy Gordon-doable profits, 

 for the plants bear more flowers which sell for a higher price, bringing 



your gains up to nearly twice what you can get from other com- 

 mercial sorts. 



Come to Wyncote and see Dorothy Gordon growing; if you can- 

 not do that write or wire us now and we will reserve stock for you. 

 But do It quickly if you want any rooted cuttings this spring. Inter- 

 esting literature free. 



Prices are: $10.00 per 100; $75.00 per 1000.

 three prizes are offered, for the best 

 twelve white, twelve pink and twelve 

 other colors, respectively. Vice-Presi- 

 dent Beidenbach also offered $5 for the 

 best two vases of sweet peas — ^first, $3; 

 second, $2.

 tions" was a treat for all and it cer- 

 tainly deserves a high place among 

 writings on this subject.

 Johnson acted as judges and their de- 

 cisions were as follows: Best twelve 

 white carnations, V. Cleres, with "White 

 Enchantress; best twelve pink, A. Eob- 

 ertson, with Enchantress; best twelve 

 mixed, V. Cleres, with Imperial, Win- 

 sor and Enchantress. 



Cultural certificates were awarded 

 as follows: W. Ecoles, for vase of Win- 

 sor, also vase of Mrs. Charles Knopf; 

 H. Gaut, for vase of sweet peas; E. 

 Reidenbach, for two beautiful cycla- 

 mens; A. Robertson, for vase of En- 

 chantress. 



Honorable mention was awarded to 

 F. Petroccia for Primula Kewensis and
