SALZER’S SEEDS 
The seeds 1 had from 
you last year were 
very good. I had the 
best bed of Asters in 
the whole town .— Mr.

Washington Ave., West 
Haven, Conn. 
IMPROVED GIANT CREGO 
The plants are vigorous and productive, 
sending up stems about two feet in length, 
each carrying immense flowers often meas¬ 
uring 5^4 inches across. The long petals curl 
across each other so flufflly as to enhance the 
beauty of the flowers. Blooms from August 
to the end of September. The large, double 
flowers, shapely and well formed, make this 
a fine all-purpose variety.
