Martin’s Fine Stocks 
Our Stock Seed is of the very finest quality, as regards trueness to' color and 1 type 
and percentage of doubles. We have selected our strain from the best the 
market affords. 
Giant Imperial or Improved Bismarcks 
A very valuable strain for outdoors (if started very early), or greenhouse forc¬ 
ing. No other class will give the large number of good spikes for cutting. In the 
greenhouse, set the plant 6x8 inches and top when 6 inches tall to produce 
lengthy side shoots. 
It has been definitely proven that the 
percentage of doubles in Stocks is in¬ 
creased by having a high nitrogen con¬ 
tent in the soil.
