BEAUTIFUL ORNAMENTAL VINES 
gEDS of flowers tastefully disposed give brightness and beauty to a place, but it is the 
climbers that afford coziness and special charm to a home. They beautify unsightly spots; they break 
up the monotony of the grounds; they supply, like Jonah's gourd, quick shade from burning sun. A good 
variety of these plants should be found at every home. They are indispensable in giving a homey appear¬ 
ance, and imparting cheer and comfort and contentment to the inmates. The plants are readily started 
from seeds, and easily transplanted to where you wish them to grow. Furnish support when needed.
