Forcing Stocks 
Seed of Stock for forcing has 
always been more or less un¬ 
predictable with regard to the 
percentage of doubles it will 
produce. Selection of the strong¬ 
est plants, growing in rich soil 
and proper feeding has been 
standard practice, but even un¬ 
der these conditions sometimes 
the percentage of doubles is too 
low for profit. To use all pos¬ 
sible safeguards, our grower 
plants a quantity of each lot of 
seed and any lot that does not 
prove up to standard, is dis¬ 
carded. 
Careful comparative tests have 
proved that our strains are equal 
to the best available and we 
feel convinced that we can sat¬ 
isfy the most critical. 
STOCK COLUMN 
MAMMOTH FLOWERED COLUMN 
Three New Colors 
Pink. A soft Chatenay pink that is so useful for cut 
flower purposes. A really fine introduction. 
Lavender. Several shades deeper than Silver Lilac but 
the individual flowers are almost one half again as 
large. A fine sort. 
Salmon Rose. We have used this name as best des¬ 
cribing the color of this new development. The flow¬ 
ers as they first open are a soft salmon yellow with 
a suffusion of old rose which intensifies as the flower 
ages. The immense size of the double blooms and 
the unusual color make this a variety that will cre¬ 
ate attention wherever shown. 
Any of the above three new colors, 1/2 Pkt. $0.60; Tr. 
Pkt. $1.00, 1/4 Oz. $3.00, Collection Tr. Pkt. of each color 
$2.50.
