lOlUS 
Among the summer flowering bulbs the Gladiolus has but few, If any 
equals. They are easily satisfied, both as to soil and location, doing 
equally well in beds, rows or interspersed among shrubbery. Good culti- 
vation IS desired, but heavy fertilizing should be avoided.

February or March in the greenhouse or hotbed; and 
for a succession they can be planted at intervals as 
late as July. For flowering in the open border, plant 
about the middle of May, or as soon as the ground be- 
comes warm. Price 5c each; 40c per doz.

"Those Dahlias you sent me last year have given 
great satisfaction. Charles Clayton was liked so well 
that I will plant a whole bed of them this year." 
PAUL UHLMAN. 
Jf eonies 
Fine, hardy plants, rivaling the rose 
in perfection of bloom, color and frag- 
rance. They are home in an.v climate 
or soil, but thrive best in a deep, rich, 
well-drained loam. They make a gor- 
geous display planted in beds, on the 
lawn, or planted singly along the walk 
or herbaceous border. The Peony is 
perfectly hardy and generally able to 
care for itself, but it does not follow 
that they enjoy neglect. Give them 
ample room in which to grow, keeping 
them free from weeds and grass, and 
they will amply repay all the care 
given. A word to beginners: Don't 
be alarmed when you see .vour newly 
set Peonies begin to turn brown in Jul,y 
and appear to be quite dead by August. 
This is natural. They will be on hand 
again in the spring. 
The following varieties embrace a 
wide range of color and will be found 
very .satisfactory:
