Vere 1 Something Aout a LILY POOL 
That Makes The Rest of The 
Garden Seem Commonplace 
Did you ever notice how much better you do a job 
when you're calm, relaxed, unworried? 
A pool involves LITTLE space, LITTLE expense and 
LITTLE time or attention. Yet nothing else gives quite so much 
for so little. Aquatic life is fascinating—fishes glide through 
the depths, dragon-flies skim above, green pads unfold and 
waxer blossoms sparkle in the sunlight. The mystic lotus 
rises, breathing the lure of far away land. 
IN THE CALM WATERS YOU WILL FIND TRANQUIL- 
ITY—RESTFUL DIVERSION FROM THE CARES OF THE 
WORKADAY WORLD. 
The illustration below is a “LARGE” pool, 15 feet wide and 30 feet long, which we have planted for the past eight 
years, and with complete success year after year. Here we have a rather unusual pool—built to produce the results pictured— 
a dense grouping of leaves and blooms with a mirror pool in center. Here you see eighteen lilies—blooming in all their splen- 
dor—Blue Beauty, Mrs. Pring, Pershing, Chicago, Pink Pearl, August Koch, Juno, Missouri—all these varieties are reliable, 
equally dependable in keeping up a continuous display of fragrant blossoms. In planting, the lilies were placed in boxes, 
containing about a bushel of soil, as the pool is deep a concrete block was placed under each box to bring the top of lily 
box to about 10 inches below water level. 


Today we have a great need—for the com- 
fort and solace which only Nature can provide— 
and we must be thankful that aquatic Plant Life 
is still abundant—without encumbrance of prior- 
ities or rationing. 
We will do our utmost to meet your needs— 
and we feel confident that we are fully prepared 
to serve you in the satisfactory manner and with 
the quality of stock that come from more than 
twenty years of growing experience. 

What some of our cus- 
tomers think of our prod- 
ucts and service: | 
from Clarksburg, West Virginia— 
“Plants arrived in fine condition.” 
from Columbus, Ohio— 
“We are delighted with every- 
thing—which has caused the chil- 
dren to say the aquarium is the most 
beautiful thing in the home.” 
from Wisconsin— 
“Received my last order of aquar- 
ium plants. I must thank you for 
them as they are the finest I have 
ever had—as they are so fresh and 
nice and don't make the water cloudy 
right away.” 
from Washington, D. C— 
“The Lotus and Lily came in per- 
fect condition.” 
from New. Jersey— 
“The plants sent for my Terrarium 
this year are all doing very nicely.” 
from Colorado— 
“The aquarium Hi Balls arrived 
today and I popped them right into 
my indoor pool. I see the fish are 
intensely interested in them and are 
snooping around them, waggling 
their tails as they do when they have 
something on their minds.”
