succeed on any type of soil regardless of weather 
conditions.

1337. Fantasy. H. A. Zinnias today are prob¬ 
ably the most popular flower in the home garden 
and this new variety will be a welcome addition 
to the list. In late years the more graceful small 
flowered types have been the most popular. This 
New Fantasy Mixture meets this demand in all de¬ 
tails. The rounded flowers are composed of a mass 
of shaggy, ray-like petals which give a delicate and 
refined appearance to the medium-sized double 
flowers. They are large enough to satisfy the desire 
for a mass of color yet small enough to lend them¬ 
selves to graceful arrangement. The colors range 
from the brightest shades of red and orange to the 
popular pastel pinks and creams. Pkt., 5c; V4 oz., 
30c; y 2 oz., 50c; oz., 80c, postpaid.
