Aster-Mikado Pink 



A fine new variety. Petals are nar- 

 row, very long and gracefully reflexed, 

 making it the fluffiest Aster we hare 

 ever seen. In color it is a most ex- 

 quisite shade of shell pink. For a 

 mid-season pink Aster it is without a 

 rival. The plants are unusually vigor- 

 ous, succeeding everywhere. It is not 

 uncommon to find plants with a dozen 

 long, strong, graceful stems each crown- 

 ed with flowers from four to six inches 

 in diameter. Price per pkt. 10 cts. 



Dimorphotheca Aurantica 



AFRICAN GOLDEN DAISY 



A rare and extremely showy annual, discov- 

 ered in South Africa. It will quickly become a 

 great favorite everywhere on account of its very 

 easy culture and beautiful colored flowers. The 

 plants grow about a foot high and are very 

 profuse in flowering. Its Marguerite-like 

 blossoms, 2Y2 inches in diameter, show a pe- 

 culiarly rich glossy orange gold, with a dark 

 center. Well adapted for groups or borders, 

 it produces its pretty flowers very early in 

 sunny situations and will continue to flower 

 during the summer months. A bed in bloom 

 is a magnificent sight in bright days.

Ideal Dandelion Killer 



For years the dandelion has been the greatest source of annoyance to the lover of a beautiful 

 lawn. Many methods have been tried to kill the dandelions, but all have been tedious and 

 more or less unsatisfactory until the Ideal Dandelion Killer was placed on the market. 



This new dandelion killer is a tube IV2 inches in diameter and 30 inches long, so it holds 

 about one quart. It has a screw cap at the top for filling and in the bottom is a valve which 

 lets out about one teaspoonful of liquid quickly. To destroy the dandelion simply put the 

 valve plunger in the center of the heart and push down on the tube a very little — just enough 

 to open the valve. The liquid is dropped onto the heart and also onto the leaves which carry 

 it to the heart, killing the plant, roots and all. It is cheap to operate, as gasoline is as good 

 a liquid as you can use and it will kill the dandelion in 24 hours. Other methods to kill them 

 are slow and back-breaking work. With the Ideal Dandelion Killer, simply fill the tube with 

 gasoline and you can kill them as fast as you can walk around your lawn. 



Price prepaid $1.25.
