Farr’s Gold Medal Peonies 
Awarded the gold medal of the American Peony Society at the annual 
exhibition in Cleveland, 1918 ; New York City, 1916 ; Chicago, 1914 
P EONIES are the aristocrats of the hardy garden, yet are so 
democratic in their habits that they thrive and bloom in the 
humblest garden as well as when under the care of the expert. 
Few, if any, flowers give so great a return for so little care. 
When the plants are well established they form a permanent feature 
of the garden, a collection of rare Peonies becoming a tangible asset which 
increases in value and beauty from year to year. 
In order that everyone may have a collection of extra choice 
Peonies, I have selected twelve varieties, which I offer at an 
extremely low price to those who will mention House & Garden when they send 
their order:

LAWTON RESUMES 
ORIENTAL RUGS 
While there will never again be great 
quantity- of thick and sparkling gem an¬ 
tiques, I have that quality as ever. New 
rugs have advanced 100 per cent to 300 
per cent; good old rugs less than any other 
commodity, gold excepted. Such rugs are 
as staple as gold and always will be. 
CONGRESS STRUCK THE LUXURY 
TAX FROM ORIENTAL RUGS. 
I cannot interest Kermanshah admirers 
nor buyers of washed rugs. My customers 
own some rugs previously shown by plate 
in Hawley, Mumford, Lewis, etc. Half of 
500 wise buyers of America are on my 
books. If you would be a sincere lover 
and buyer of quality, write for further 
rug news. 
I prepay express everywhere of course. No 
obligation on anybody to buy. A personal 
descriptive list of my wonderful stock for 
the asking.
