GREAT and varied as are the pleasures of mankind, few approach, in our humble opinion, 

 the joys and ecstasies one may dig out of the garden. What is there that equals the 

 unfolding of the delicate petals of a Peony or Poppy: what more intricately beautiful de- 

 signs can there be found in this world than newly developed leaves of maples? From the 

 humble violets whose modest flowers are half hidden beneath the foliage to the towering oaks 

 looking back upon centuries, all these furnish the gardener the true insight into the work of 

 nature, the thorough understanding of which will give one an entirely new outlook upon life. 

 Take the garden more seriously, not in the light of the serious work which it involves, but 

 rather in the light of pleasures to be dug out of the soil and to be derived from the product. 



What You May Do In Your Garden From Now 

 Until the End of the Season 



An abundance of fruits and flowers may still 

 be provided by taking advantage of the Pot- 

 grown plant product. For one thing, you may 

 have a Strawberry bed that will yield an abun- 

 dance of fruit within sixty da^'s. and from 

 that time on clear up to frost, providing you 

 start with everbearing varieties. Beginning in 

 Jul}', Irises and various other early blooming 

 perennials may safely be divided and moved. 

 All hardy plants that passed their first bloom 

 late in July may readily be transplanted to pro- 

 duce a new crop of flowers late in the season. 



August is also the month to transplant ever- 



greens. But the stor}' is really too long to be 

 given here in full. While a copy of our "Guide 

 to Fall Planting" will be mailed to all cus- 

 tomers of record, about September 15th. we 

 invite you to write for a copy of our last 

 spring's catalog Xo. 107. Use it to make out 

 your order for anything you wish to plant this 

 fall, ^^'e will enter it to be shipped at the 

 correct planting time. The prices of some 

 items may be higher in the fall, but we will 

 be glad to book orders for fall shipment, taken 

 from our spring catalog, at spring quotations. 

 The earlv buyer is a gainer.
