The Coolest of Flowers 
Masses of this cool, gleaming white seem an almost in¬ 
dispensable feature of the August garden; no other flower, 
except perhaps the beautiful Madonna Lily, conveys 
such a sense of refreshment. The following six kinds are 
most generally admired by those who visit my Helds. 
Elizabeth Campbell, light salmon pink. 
Siebold, orange scarlet with crimson center 
Struthere, rose-carmine with red eye. 
Richard Wallace, white with eye. 
B. Compte, rich Amaranth-red. 
Miss Lingard, early pure white 
Two strong plants of each of the above six varieties, twelve in 
all, for $ 2 . 25 , carriage paid, or ten of each making sixty in all, 
for $ 10 . 00 .

LOTOL 
LOTOL kills plantlice and many other sap-sucking in¬ 
sects. Use it on your fall flowers, on your 
houseplants. Spray your Evergreens with 
it to fight the wooly Aphis. 
The use of LOTOL is simple! Squeeze 
some LOTOL into a gallon of water, stir 
and spray. No addition of soap required— 
no fuss—no muss! It spreads, sticks, 
cleanses and sanitates, making possible 
healthy, normal existence for all 
plant life. 
A 35c tube makes 6 gallons of com¬ 
plete spray solution. No doubt your 
dealer sells LOTOL—if not, a trial tube 
will be mailed upon receipt of 45c, with 
complete directions for use.
