THE ILLUSTRATIONS ON THIS PAGE 



A. Across the top of this page we print a photo sent to us by one of our customers, Mr. 



A. F. McCarthy of Taylorsville, Ohio. It shows how he transformed the grounds surround- 

 ing his bungalow, on the banks of a lake, into a beautiful garden. Mr. McCarthy seems to 

 have accomplished this by a liberal use of annuals. We notice Japanese Morning Glory 

 on the lattice-work Wigwam: dwarf Nasturtium, and a wonderful border of Sweet Alyssum, 

 Also beds and groups of Petunia, Zinnia, Oenothera. Nicotiana, Lavatera, Ricinus, 

 Salpiglossis, etc. There are Rambler Roses on the lattice-work in the rear. 



B. Shows plantings in front of a summer house covered with Clematis paniculata. In front 

 is a group of Peonies surrounded by Dianthus and hardy Carnations, and bordered by 

 Centaurea white-leaved or Dusty Miller. Among the Peonies are groups of Lilies and 

 Campanulas, and in the rear cut-and-come-again Sunflowers, backed by a Privet Hedge and 

 Shrubs. 



C. This photo represents a section of a hardy border, and it is ideal for such a purpose. 

 In the rear are Hollyhocks and Digitalis or Foxglove, and in front- Iris. Oriental Poppies, 

 single Asters. Aquilegias or Columbines, annual Chrysanthemums in variety, and Calliopsis 



D. For a lawn bed of lasting quality, photo D shows an ideal combination. In the center 

 is a group of Henderson's Rainbow Corn. This is surrounded by a border of Amaranthus. 

 and white-leaved Centaurea.
