Anyone can have 
a Flower Garden 
ARE YOU SATISFIED 
WITH YOUR BACK YARD? 
Is your yard a place of beauty where you can 
enjoy the restful quiet you get from your living 
room in winter, or is it just a plot of ground? 
Are you perhaps a little envious of some of 
the expensive landscaped gardens you have 
seen? You needn’t be. You don’t need a land¬ 
scape gardener and a lot of money to transform 
your yard into a place of beauty. For less than 
a dollar bill you can buy the flower seeds that 
will bring you joy all summer long. 
It is very little trouble to plant them; they 
require little care, and lend themselves readily 
to any landscape. Don’t plant annual flowers 
in round or square beds, but group them in cor¬ 
ners, along fence-rows or boundaries, screen 
unsightly places with the tall ones. Make them 
look as if they grew there naturally. 
After all, we must admit that nature is the 
best landscape artist to be had. 
BARTELDES’ 
Dahlia -Flowered 
ZINNIAS 
Always one of the hardiest flowers—and now, 
no more the plain, ugly duckling of the garden, 
but as beautiful and stately as any of her fa¬ 
mous sisters. The new Zinnias are marvelous 
in size and color. 
If you want large flowers for large bouquets 
and bright splashes of color in your garden, 
plant Barteldes’ Dahlia-Flowered, or Barteldes’ 
Colossal. The flowers of both are enormous 
and offer a wide range of both pastel and bril¬ 
liant colors. Pick them often, they bloom more 
freely. 
For borders and dainty bouquets, plant Pom¬ 
pon Zinnias.
