trees ave true to name, except one. I want to set 450 more trees 
this spring and would be pleased to have quotations on that num- 
ber of 2-foot trees.

, Dear Sir: 
Three years ago I bought one dozen phlox plants from Krider's 
Nurseries, and I have never seen anything lhke them. This year 
they were simply gorgeous—some blooms as big as seven iwches 
or more in diameter. They are still blooming and have been 
blooming since June. So I want two dozen more, 
MRS, E.K.
