The All-round 

 "Contact Insecticide 



Since it Kills Rose Bugs, of course 

 Others are an Easy Prey 



Use the gallon solution on any bug or insect 

 pest that invades your garden. Use it on any 

 Aphis, Spider, Thrip, or Bug. While Melrosine 

 first won fame as the one remedy that really 

 kills Rose Bugs, it has a far wider usefulness as 

 an all-round contact insecticide. New uses are 

 being constantly reported. See it at work for 

 yourself. 



Melrosine should be in every Garden home. 

 It is sold by Seed Houses and Nurseries. De- 

 scriptive circular gives further interesting facts.

A Treasure Chest of 

 Flower Gardens 



In this new catalogue of perennials there 

 are rare treats for garden enthusiasts. 

 Besides extensive stocks of Irises, Peonies, 

 Phloxes, and other standard perennials, 

 there are many rare plants, some of which 

 cannot be obtained elsewhere. Accurate 

 descriptions, and directions for propagat- 

 ing, have made this booklet valuable in 

 many garden libraries. 



My catalogue of "California Bulbs" is 

 of unusual interest to people in the eastern 

 and central parts of the United States, be- 

 cause of the many novelties listed, and the 

 opportunity it offers to gain garden dis^ 

 tinction. 



Either or both of these catalogues will 

 be sent upon request.
