Blue Rose Here at Last 



It has remained for this first decade of the twentieth century,

 in the realm of horticulture — THE BLUE ROSE, the color 

 that has baffled all floral experts for centuries.

 healthy living rose, perfectly hardy, grown in a flower pot, 

 ready to transplant in the open ground, which will bear an

Use Paint made with Oxide of Zinc 



The Intelligent Painter Knows 



that he cannot do satisfactory work with paint 

 containing only one pigment imperfectly mixed 

 by hand. He knows that 



OXIDE OF ZINC 



is needed in paint to make it durable, permanent 

 in color and economical. If he is frank he will 

 tell you so. 

 Does your paint contain Oxide of Zinc? 



Oxide of Zinc is unalterable 

 even under the blow-pipe
