Giant Double-Flowering Zinnia 
Zinnias are indispensable annuals as they can be grown universally. They 
require little attention from the time seed is sown. So easy to start, the seed 
can be planted in the open after the middle of May. 
Our Mammoth Strain has truly colossal flowers; specimens measure five 
and six inches across, mostly double, semi-globular in form, setting well above 
the heavy foliage—a very effective display.

Build Your House 
Like a Fireless Cooker 
A fireless cooker keeps hot because it holds the heat. It cooks 
foods with only a fraction of the heat required in a stove, because 
that heat cannot escape. 
Cabot’s Insulating “QUILT” 
keeps your whole house warm in the same way. It holds the heat 
of your heater by insulation. It saves coal enough to pay for 
itself in two hard winters, besides keeping the house warm and 
comfortable for all time and reducing doctors’ bills. “Build warm 
houses; it is cheaper than heating cold ones.”
