"A ROSE by any other name would 

 h— \ smell as sweet." The name, how- 

 ever, is not so material as is the 

 fact that this is the very finest Rose for 

 forcing in the greenhouse or to plant for 

 outdoor flowering. Color is a beautiful 

 deep pink; stem, foliage and form perfect 

 in all respects, and will produce more 

 flowers per plant than any Rose ever 

 introduced in this country. Why not grow 

 a few plants and convince yourself? 



Price, 75c. per plant; $7.50 per dozen,

If You Love the Gladiolus 

 I Want to Know You Now 



I want to know everybody who loves this superbly beauti- 

 ful flower, because I love it too — love it so well that I have 

 devoted the best years of my life to growing it and every 

 year devote more than ioo acres to it. I have tested it under 

 every condition and I know it to be the one flower adapted to 

 everybody's garden, the one flower with which everybody 

 can succeed. I have grown more than 25,000 varieties and 

 from these I have selected the very best, the most perfect 

 in form, the richest in coloring, and have given my whole 

 time and attention to growing the finest possible bulbs of 

 these. Send me a post card with your name and address 

 that we may become acquainted. 



I Will Send You Free My Little Book 



The Gladiolus — Everybody's Flower 



It is exquisitely illustrated from photographs reproduced 

 in the natural colors of the flowers. It will tell you just how 

 I grow my wonderful spikes of bloom and how you can grow 

 as good. It will tell you about the special collections I have 

 made from the choicest named varieties, and fully describes 

 those varieties which by many years of testing I have proven 

 to be most satisfactory. Send today, for the planting season 

 will soon be at hand.
