GARDENING, the one best 
hobby during war times 
ITH restrictions on the use of your car, it is going to be difficult 
to get out into the country for picnics, golfing, fishing, etc. 
We will all be spending more time at home, so why not take up 
gardening as a war hobby—a hobby which will give you more satis- 
faction and more thrills than any other form of relaxation. In most 
gardens, a Water Lily Pool is the center of interest with its brilliant, 
colorful Water Lilies and ornamental fishes. Certainly there are no 
plants in the garden as completely satisfactory as Water Lilies. They 
require no weeding, no watering and no hoeing, but give an abun- 
dance of colorful beauty. 
In the following pages you will find illustrated fascinating Water 
Lilies, both Hardy and Tropical varieties, in every shade of the 
rainbow. Like all pool enthusiasts, you will find it hard to decide 
which colors to order, but no matter which you pick, you won’t 
be disappointed, for each color is attractive in its own individual 
way and every lily listed in this catalog is certain to give a large 
measure of satisfaction. (For information on how to build a cement 
pool, see page 19.)
