Sacramento—40 in. GIVEN HONORABLE MENTION BY THE AMERICAN 
IRIS SOCIETY. A GIANT ‘‘PLICATA,”’ COMPARABLE IN SIZE TO SAN 
FRANCISCO, BUT ENTIRELY ‘DIFFERENT IN FORM AND MARKING, 
IN FACT I PERSONALLY LIKE SACRAMENTO BEST OF ALL THE ‘‘PLI-

San Francisco or Los Angeles, the latter being illustrated on Page 16. You are sure 
to be very much pleased with Sacramento. ..00.02. 2.0 oc cleas « sla puree eee -20
