now available in the special Wilt 
Resistant Strains. 
These strains cost us more, but 
this season we make no extra 
charge for this superior seed. 
Our seed is grown for us hy the 
specialists who developed these 
Wilt Resistant Strains. 
Since practically every variety 
listed on this page is Wilt Resist¬

strains. 
You simply pay the price of the 
old strains that were subject to 
wilt and get the new Improved 
strains so far as they have been

There is an Aster wilt disease caused by a parasitic fungus. If this once gets Into your 
soil It remains there indefinitely, causing ordinary strains to wilt and die. But the plants of 
wilt resistant strains will nearly all resist this disease. 
This resistance Is to wilt only, not to another disease known as Aster yellows, caused by 
leaf hoppers. No remedy for yellows except to grow the plants entirely protected with 
cheesecloth sides and cover.
