T RULY a wonder, for no other 
lemon ever produced such 
enormous fruit or bore so 
freely. The plants grow rapidly 
and soon make shapely little trees. 
Fruit is very handsome as well 
as useful. May be used anywhere 
that ordinary lemons may be 
used, and one of these is equal 
to 8 or 10 common lemons. Has 
very thin rind for so large fruit 
and its acidity is unsurpassed. 
Highly recommended for lemon¬ 
ade and all culinary purposes. 
15 Cents Each, 2 for 25 Cents; 
2-year plants, 25 Cents each, 
postpaid. 
^'The great demand for this 
plant has caused spurious strains 
to be substituted. I guarantee 
these I offer to be the genuine.—

JAPANESE 
FERN 
BALLS 
T HE gr'-at popularity 
that these most deco¬ 
rative subject sattaiu- 
ed the past season is not 
surprising, as they are the 
most striking introduction 
of recent years. The Kerns 
are gathered in a dormant 
condition by the Japanese 
and the roots and fronds 
expertly interwoven into 
compact balls. Their cul¬ 
ture is most aim pie. All that 
is required is a soaking in a 
tub of water and hang to 
drip in a moderately warm 
and somewhatshaded place. 
This is to be rep' ated daily 
until growth starts, then see that they are kept moist by sprinkling. 
Japanese Fern Ball—In Leaf. 
To watch their de¬ 
velopment is most interesting; the growth is very rapid, new and strange kinds appearing 
dally and beauty increasing with age. For arbor or piazza in summer, and for window 
and church in winter, this Is one of the prettiest decorations imaginable. 
The dry balls are received in the winter and sent postpaid for 75 cts. each; 3 for 
t£.00 ; smaller size, about 5 In. diameter, 50 cts. each.
