SEEDS 



It is generally conceded 

 among musicians that the 

 Steinway piano is the best 

 made. No doubt there are 

 other good pianos, but the 

 name Steinway on a piano 

 is a synonym for quality par 

 excellence, and the musician 

 need look no further. A test 

 is unnecessary — the mere 

 name is enough. An instance 

 of trademark value. Some 

 think a cheap piano is good 

 enough to learn on, but that 

 is a sad mistake. No piano 

 is too good for the beginner. 

 The training a child gets on 

 a bad piano is defective to 

 such a degree that it some- 

 times takes years to over- 

 come. Piano training con- 

 cerns the ears as vv^ell as the 

 fingers, and a poor piano is 

 to a scholar w^hat a poor tool 

 is to a carpenter. Same prin- 

 ciple applies to bulbs. The 

 beginner must have good 

 bulbs to begin with, especial- 

 ly in lily bulbs. The best 

 are none too good. It is 

 foolish for an amateur to 

 work with inferior bulbs. If 

 you are a beginner in lily 

 bulb growing, buy Horse- 

 shoe Brand bulbs — the best 

 produced. If you are an ex- 

 pert you will buy them, too, 

 because your experience will 

 have taught you their com- 

 parative value as against 

 other brands. Send for the 

 Book of Bulbology, contain- 

 ing prices.
