MARYLAND —ACJUATIC PLANTS AND GOLDFISn 
COMETS 
T HESE are goldfish with 
long tails and long fins. 
They are supposed to have 
originated in the pools of the 
Fish Commission at Washing¬ 
ton, D. C., in the early ’80s. 
The tail of this graceful fish 
is free flowing, and enables 
this variety to become rapid 
swimmers. As they dart to 
and fro between the lilies they 
never fail to attract attention, 
as they are the most rapid 
swimmers of all goldfish. You 
will never regret buying this 
variety. The stock which we 
will furnish you, as is all our 
stock, is selected from our 
large production of many mil¬ 
lions, and they are especially 
chosen for tail and fin develop¬ 
ment. We offer these selected 
and paired. 
Price: Large size—for pools, $4.00 per pair; dozen $20.00. Smaller size—for 
tubs or small pools, $1.25 per pair; dozen $6.00. See price list, page 26. 
Price: Large Pool size, $5.00 per pair; medium size, $2.00 per pair. See price 
list, page 26. 
SHUBUNKINS 
T HIS is one of the newer 
varieties of goldfish. 
Often entirely or nearly scale¬ 
less. Very beautiful with 
patches of red, black and blue 
on a pearl background. There 
are no two of these fish alike. 
They are the most striking 
varieties in color, and certainly 
make a most attractive pool 
fish. We choose those having 
a blue background, speckled 
and mottled with dark red, 
brown, yellow and black. No 
goldfish collection is complete 
without this variety. We choose 
these from our large produc¬ 
tion of goldfish so that you will 
be assured of the best when 
ordering from us. We never 
have sufficient of the large size 
of this variety to fill our orders. 
Selected Goldfish—nothing more beautiful or productive. They multiply rapidly in pool. Remember tve grotc 
our Goldfish and ship direct from our Hatcheries.
