ge Flowered Hardy Phlox 
As wetravel 
around the country 
and admire the gar- 
‘dens of many friend- 
ly folks, we can’t 
help but notice the 
large number of 
poor Phlox plants 
growing in most 
gardens. They are 
the old-fashioned, 
small-flowered va- 
rieties that probably 
een handed down from friend to 
‘or many, many years. Colors are 
>d out too, and.on the whole the va- 
are very unsatisfactory. It seems 
to clutter up gardens with these 
old varieties when there are so 
new beautiful varieties available, 
ew Phlox bear great heads of flowers, 
with each individual floweret as big as a 
renty-five cent piece, and that’s no ex- 
iggeration. Their colors range from bril- 
liant lilac blue to the showiest scarlet you 
can imagine. We don’t think you can 
find a perennial that is easier to grow, 
‘Ste that will live longer, or give you more for 
ve, your money than these new Phlox. And, 
at the same time, we don’t know of any- 
“me one who has any better Phlox plants than 
s we do, either plants or varieties. (And 
- we’re not just bragging.) We have care- 
fully culled our list, and at the present 
time, have about 15 or 20 of the very 
ip ast varieties of Phlox plants that we 
can find in the world. We feel that since 
all Phlox plants grow easily, we might as 
- well grow the very best as grow the poor- 
est. Doesn’t cost us any more and cer- 
tainly you customers would rather have 
_ the best. 
‘Here is an offer of six of the finest 
Phlox varieties, in a wide variety of col- 
ors. We are offering the six as a collec- 
A - tion, but you can order them individually

Garden Advice 
Just want to remind all you new cus- 
tomers that the big catalog you received 
earlier this year is about as complete a 
garden guide as you can find anywhere. 
It tells all about how to grow vegetables, 
fruit, flowers, field seeds and chickens, 
too. Don’t start a garden without re- 
ferring to it, and if you get stuck, and 
want some more answers, please write us. 
6- rte Old Weeping Willow 
This picture was sent in to us by Mrs. 
Mary L. Shipler, Box 8, Sylvia, Kansas. 
Mrs. Shipler, who is 74 years old and a 
widow, says she planted this Niobe Weep- 
ing Willow just 6 years ago and it now 
is admired by everyone passing by. Mrs. 
Shipler also says her backyard is full of 
Henry Field fruit trees and they always 
give her plenty of fruit.
