KLONDYKE ORANGE 
FLARE 
(Grower’s Description) 
Now at last we may grow 
the lovely orange colored 
cosmos and be assured of 
having flowers before frost. 
In most parts of the coun¬ 
try this briliant hued flower 
is practically unknown be¬ 
cause of its late flowering 
habit. Realizing its beauty, 
however, we have bent our 
efforts towards producing an 
early flowering strain which 
may be enjoyed by all. We 
have accomplished this with Orange Flare, a strain 
which is in full bloom less than five months from 
sowing. The color is the same vivid orange of the 
ordinary Klondyke, with attractive light green foliage.

CYNOGLOSSUM (Chinese Forget-me-not) 
This easily grown annual deserves to be grown 
quite extensively on account of its wide range of 
adaptation, easy culture, and attractiveness. It thrives 
in a dry sunny location where few other flowers will 
make a show and blooms continuously from June until 
September. No special care is required to create at¬ 
tractive beds or borders with it. 
Sow the seed during April or May, covering it with 
% inch of fine soil. When plants are about 2 inches 
tall thin to stand 6 inches apart. The plants will soon 
bear a mass of bright blue Forget-Me-Not-like flowers.

"DAHLIA 
Seed may be sowm in 
spring in open ground after 
danger of frost is over, but 
for best results sow in shal¬ 
low pans at any time from 
March to June, and trans¬ 
plant the seedlings to small 
pots. When strong enough 
and danger from frost is 
over plant out one foot 
apart. These plants will pro¬ 
duce tubers which should be 
taken up in the fall and re¬ 
planted the following spring ; 
these roots will flower freely 
the following autumn. Ten¬ 
der herbaceous perennial, 
three to four feet high.
