THE NEW TARIFF BATES. 



The new tariff bill, introduced in 

 Congress April 7, makes a few - reduc- 

 tions in the rates of duty on seeds and 

 the commodities ordinarily imported by 

 seedsmen, but the bulk of the changes 

 are advances — seeds not specially pro- 

 .vided for, however, are changed from 

 10 cents per pound to fifteen per cent 

 ad valorem; otherwise the principle of 

 specific duties is maintained. 



The rates of the old bill and the pro- 

 posed rates are shown in the following 

 comparison :

ENCHANTRESS SUPREME 



|HE best Sport of Enchantress up to date, possessing all the vigor and freedom that dis- 

 tinguish its parent. Color a light salmon pink — a color that is not only very attractive, 

 but also one that endures full exposure to the sun without bleaching. A good all-round 

 Carnation that retains its color at all seasons. Calyx is longer and narrower than that of the 

 parent variety, and distinct from the latter. Has shown no inclination to be a burster. The 

 weak points of Enchantress seem to have been lost in this Sport, and a trial of four years' 

 duration convinces us of its great value.
