This a most useful and ornamental 
plant. It grows abour four feet high and 
produces a large double flower on the 
top of the stalk and one on each leaf- 
joint, which latter are borne on a short 
stem. The terminal flower is the lar¬ 
gest, being about 6 inches in diameter, 
From this they gradually grow smaller 
in size toward the base of the plant, 
where they are only about 3 inches in 
diameter. The flowers are perfectly 
double and produce a very large amount 
of seed which makes excellent chicken 
feed. Pkt., 5c.; oz , 10c.; % lb., 30c.;

to 4 feet and produces its handsome, 
well formed flowers in the greatest 
abundance all through the summer till 
late in fall. The flowers are 2 % to 3
