Salzer’s Dahlia Flowered Zinnia, Crimson Monarch 
DAHLIA FLOWERED 
ZINNIAS 
Besides producing by far the largest 
flowers of all the Zinnias, the Dahlia- 
flowered varieties are distinguished by 
being nearly as deep in the center as 
they are wide, with smaller individual 
petals than the ordinary varieties, but 
many more of them. Moreover, their 
colors are softer and more pleasing, be¬ 
ing characterized by blended shades 
and pastel effects which, with the 
slightly reflexed and closely over-lap¬ 
ping petals, give the whole flower the 
appearance of a fine satin cushion. The 
plants are tall and vigorous, producing 
a wealth of immense blooms from July 
until frost. 2% to 3 feet. 
We offer the most popular shades: 
2750— Old Rose. A charming shade. 
2751— Crimson Monarch. Striking.

AND NOW, RID YOUR LAWN OF DANDELIONS! 
MEO-181 Kills Dandelions, Crab Grass, and Plantain 
Meo-181 penetrates weed plants and attaeks the roots, so 
that the weed is completely killed and does not regenerate. 
Meo-181 is easy to use because it is applied as an overall 
spray, and is selective in its action, killing only the weeds 
and not harming the lawn grasses! Meo-181 is the answer 
to the problem of ridding lawns of common weeds. 
Meo-181 is applied with any small sprayer, obtainable for 
10c or 15c at one’s local store. Spray at the rate of 1 gallon 
to 200 square feet, but as a complete over-all spray is usually 
not necessary, 1 gallon is sufficient for a much larger area. 
Make only one application per season. Ordinarily, the dan¬ 
delions wither within 4 or 5 days. Meo-181 causes a tem¬ 
porary browning of all grasses but after 2 to 4 weeks, the 
treated grass will be very noticeably greener than the un¬ 
treated areas. Complete directions for spraying, on every 
can. 5279—1 Gallon Can, $1.85, postpaid to 4th zone. Not 
prepaid; 5 Gallon Can, $7.25.
