MILLS GORGEOUS ASTERS—Wilt-Resistant Strain 
Asters have been one of our specialties for years 
and last season was the first we offered a Wilt- 
Resistant strain. Work has been going on for 
some time to produce a strain of Asters resistant 
to the Fusarium Wilt Disease, which has caused 
so much trouble to both amateur and professional 
growers in recent years. 
Prevention through Wilt-Resistant strains is the 
only method of controlling the disease and we 
refer you to letters from customers on Page 32 
giving results the past season from planting our 
Wilt-Resistant strain. 
We are offering a Special Mixture of large flow¬ 
ering Asters all grown from Wilt-Resistant stock 
and believe immune to Wilt. This mixture is made 
up of different colors in such kinds as Crego, 
Comet, Royal, Ostrich Feather, Branching, Aster- 
mum, Quilled, Sensation and others. 
Asters are still the most popular autumn an¬ 
nuals, and we ask all Aster lovers to try this strain.
