Leucothoe :: Leucothoe n Leucothoe 



While Fern is so scarce and expensive why not use Leucothoe? Same is 

 exceptionally fine this season and will go twice as far in making up sprays.

MentloB The BeTlew wlien yoa write. 



Des Moines, la. — In order to get peo- 

 ple acquainted with its new retail store 

 the Iowa Seed Co. recently advertised 

 that on a certain day a goldfish would 

 be given free to every visitor who 

 brought in a clipping of the ad with 

 the visitor's name and address written 

 on the margin. There were over 3,000 

 visitors. After the supply of fish ran 

 out due bills were issued good for a 

 fish at a later date. Charles N. Page 

 says it proved a good scheme to make 

 people talk.
