Surrounding your lawn and garden with a woven wire fence would 
insure greater seclusion for you and your guests and make the upkeep 
of your grounds a simpler matter. Anchor Post Fences have defied 
the action of the elements for twenty years. Posts and fabric are 
galvanized throughout to prevent rust and the patented post construe' 
tion insures permanent alignment. We have catalogues illustrating 
lawn fences of wire or wrought iron — tennis court backstops and 
iron gates. Write for the one you need.

GLADIOLUS BULBS 
W E are offering a hundred varieties 
selected from the best that 
Europe and America have produced. 
Many of them are for sale by no 
growers but ourselves. Among these is 
Mrs. Frank Pendleton, Jr. 
The coloring of this flower is exceptionally 
beautiful — a rich, soft pink, shading to a 
darker tint and in striking contrast with a 
brilliant carmine patch on the minor petals. 
Such coloring does not produce the delicate, 
subtle beauty that is the charm of America, 
nor the majestic beauty of Rajah, nor the poetic, win¬ 
some beauty of Spring Song and Myrtle, nor the quiet 
stateliness of Daisy Rand. But the Pendleton has a 
beauty all its own; a brilliant, dashing, compelling 
beauty that makes you stop and admire,

FLOWER GUARDS 
F OR edging walks and flower beds there is nothing so lasting or 
ornamental as Excelsior “Rust-Proof” Guards. The clean silver 
gray of the pure zinc coating looks well in contrast with flowers 
and shrubbery. 
The Guards are made just like the famous Excelsior Fences, and 
are impervious to the ravages of time and weather. They success¬ 
fully resist rust without any painting. These guards are sold in 
rolls, and may be bent to conform to any desired curve or angle. 
Ask any hardware dealer for them. Let us send you ILLUS¬ 
TRATED CATALOG “C” and sample of the “Rust-Proof” finish.
