HAND-COLORED FLOWER SLIDES for GARDEN CLUBS 
Over 100 Garden Clubs throughout the states showed our col¬ 
ored Delphinium and flower slides last year; there are some 35 of 
them in a set, including a little talk on the cultivation of Delphin¬ 
iums, thrown on the screen and read aloud by the operator; there- 
is also other reading matter, the whole making it a sort of an 
illustrated lecture. Time required for showing, about 30 to 45 
minutes. We have three sets going all the time, and it is well to- 
make application three to four weeks ahead of your meeting. Each 
club must pay the transportation charges, which average about 
$1.50 each way to Eastern points. About $1 to the Middle West— 
nearby points much less. They must be promptly returned.
