TWO NEW STANDARD UNABRIDGED DICTIONARIES 
To the school or grade, growing the ten largest plants of Giant 
Castor Bean, and to the school or grade producing the ten largest heads 
of Mammoth Russian Sunflower, (no pupil or family to make more than 
one entry,) we will present each a copy of the New Standard Unabridged

And as second and third prizes we will present Winter Blooming 
Bulbs to the value of $5.00 and $3.00, respectively. 
The sole purpose of these prize offers is to create a greater interest 
in gardening. Teachers, Women’s Clubs, Civic Leagues, etc. should offer 
additional prizes in order to make the local contests more interesting. 
Many business houses and public spirited men will be glad for the oppor¬ 
tunity to offer additional prizes. Ask your County Fair officials to pro¬ 
vide a special class for school children.

next two largest ones and had my 
picture taken.
