We offer seed of the finest, most carefulh' selected strains 

 which will produce extra-large and well-developed blooms 

 of choicest quality. Asters require thorough preparation of 

 the soil which should be enriched with bone meal, wood 

 ashes, and a little air-slaked lime. Varieties marked W-R 

 represent the new wilt-resist? nt strains.
