ASTERS 



One of our largest aster growers has for years been working up his 

 strains of the best cut flower variet'es of Asters until they are so 

 far ahead of the common run of Asters as to be in 



A Class by Themselves 



White, Pink. Light Pink, Lavender 



These aie extra fancy Asters, long stems, big flowers, the same that 

 we handled in quantity last year and the year before and that had the call 

 over all other Asters in this market. $2.(K) to 14.00 per 1(X).
