NEW CARNATIONS 
1943 Introductions 
The descriptions of the new and recent introductions of Carnations are those of the 
originators. We believe they are honest in their claims and that these varieties have 
proved of exceptional merit in the section where they have been grown. It is, however, 
a well-known fact that many new Carnations do much better in some sections of the 
country than they do in others. 
Study the list below. We feel that any Carnations, whose descriptions appeal to 
you, are worthy of a trial. Some of them seem to have exceptional merit. 
NEW VARIETIES NOT LISTED BELOW 
There are several additional carnations, which we believe will be offered to the 
growers this season. The originators have not decided on their prices or the methods 
of introduction in time for listing in the catalogue. We can, however, furnish any of 
these new varieties, if and when they are offered to the growers. 
TOM KNIPE 
Patented 
An outstanding new scarlet variety from the originator of Chief Kokomo and Seth 
Parker. The flower is very full and large with serriated petals. The calyx does not split. 
Tom Knipe propagates easily and makes good plants under either field or inside culture. 
Last season Tom Knipe produced more flowers per plant than any other scarlet on the 
Baur-Steinkamp range. Advance sales indicate an enthusiastic reception by carnation 
specialists. $20.00 per 100, $150.00 per 1000. 
DOROTHY NAPIER 
Patented 
Dorothy Napier has been grown for several years in England, Canada and in this 
country with excellent success. The Color is a bright medium pink, nearly cerise, that 
holds ,exceptionally well in warm weather. The Flowers are large, very full and the 
calyx does not split. Dorothy Napier is easily propagated and makes good plants in 
the field and under glass during the summer. The Production compares favorably with 
all varieties of this color and quality. $20.00 per 100, $150.00 per 1000.
