Peonies, the glory of June, aro the aristocrats of the hardy garden. They surpass the 
rhododendron when planted in masses, and rival the rose in delicacy of color and fragrance. 
The collection of Peonies at Wyomissing contains the new and rare introductions—many 
of them at present found only in the gardens of Peony connoisseurs. I have made a per¬ 
sonal selection of sorts showing a wide range of colors and type, and here offer them in 
collections for fall planting:

All the above varieties and hundreds of others in my complete collection at Wyomissing. 
are fully described in the 1917-1918 Edition of my book, 
Farr’s Hardy Plant Specialties. 
Money cannot buy a treatise on Peonies and Iris so complete and authoritative, because no 
other book of this character is in existence—yet I will mail you a copy free if you will 
send me your name and address. 
September and October is the best time to plant Peonies, for then with the strong roots 
I send you will obtain a large percentage of bloom the first season.

Is Your 
Laundry 
Equipment 
Satisfactory ? 
If you could see the 
DAYLIGHT WASH¬ 
ING MACHINE in 
operation, you would 
know why we claim for 
it SUPERIORITY 
over all other machines. 
It PUMPS AIR and 
WATER, through the 
clothes, by FORCE 
and SUCTION, not 
only cleaning and purifying in the best sanitary 
way, but giving a renewed WHITENESS not 
obtainable by any other method. 
It does this with LESS ENERGY, LESS 
DRUDGERY and without the disagreeable noise 
and clatter, common to other machines. 
A handsome, sturdy, complete machine. All parts correctly 
machined. All metal parts GALVANIZED, with NICKEL 
PLATED CONTROL LEVERS.
