Seed Cost 6^ Times as Much as Gold 
You can imagine the value of the beautiful new Dian¬ 
thus Loveliness plant when you realize the enormous 
price that we paid for the seed to produce it. Gold at 
the time we bought the seed was priced at $36.75 per 
ounce. We paid $60.00 for only one-quarter ounce of 
Dianthus Loveliness seed. This was at the rate of 
$240.00 per ounce, more than 6/2 times the value of 
gold. 
The seed that we bought was just a nice teaspoon- 
ful—a tiny quantity that you could blow away with one 
whiff of your breath. 
And yet the seed was worth the price. It was well 
worth while for us to bring this beautiful and rare flower 
to you. 
And Dianthus Deltoides Erecta is just as worth while 
as Dianthus Loveliness. Be sure and include both of 
these fine flowers in your order.

TRADE MARK 
(Dianthus neglectus compacta glauca) 
This flower is pretty right from the word go. First 
it appears as a little cushion all soft and fuzzy like the 
back of a furry kitten. Then in May flower buds ap¬ 
pear—hundreds of them—on short, straight stems that 
bristle out like the quills of a frightened porcupine. 
And then late in May blooms appear, like a beautiful 
miniature fireworks display, like hundreds of tiny rockets 
all exploding at once. Blooms similar to Maiden Pink 
but pure pink, no markings, about three-fourths inch 
across, three or four inches tall. Fine for border or 
rockery. Thrives in ordinary soil. 
Prices: 1 for 40c; 2 for 69c; 4 for 98c; 8 for #1.69. 
The picture at the

Rose Dawn in the 
“fuzzy kitten” stage 
—just as pretty as it 
can be. Foliage is glau¬ 
cous (bluish tinged), 
and evergreen all win¬ 
ter.
