A "NEW EARLY 
Flowering Cosmos 
These Cosmos have created a sensation (hence the name) wherever ex¬ 
hibited and in our own garden, the inquiries for the seed from our display of 
them at tiie Century of Progress and the Minnesota State Fair has been beyond 
our expectation. Anyone interested in growing flowers will be delighted with 
this new Cosmos, besides its value for garden display they will provide an 
abundant supply of cut flowers through the summer and until heavy frost. 
The seed we are offering was saved from selected plants in our own garden. 
SENSATION 
All other Cosmos are outclassed by these new giants, available for the first 
time this year; they surpass all existing strains of Cosmos in size of flowers; 
they bloom in about eight weeks from sowing and attain a size of from 4 to 6 
inches . across; long, strong stems add to their merit as cut flowers and keep 
a long time when cut; sold in mixture of pink and white; per packet, 25 
seeds, 50<t.
