ORCHIDS FOR FASCINATION* 
The lure of the Orchid goes far beyond the unsurpassed 
grace and beauty of the blossoms; beyond, too, the fragrance 
that belongs to so many of them. The idea of exotic rarity is 
a part of it, and the long-keeping quality of the blooms, but 
more than anything else, it can be the sense of achievement in 
having grown such loveliness to full perfection. The growing 
is not too difficult, a little greenhouse may help, but many are 
growing Orchids successfully on enclosed porches, or just in 
a window. We suggest, though, that you have one of the several 
good Orehid books offered below. 
ORCHID PLANTS—The plants offered are of sizes that 
should give satisfactory bloom within the year under right

good condition. Orchid plants offered here are for shipment 
from a separate growing and forwarding station, and are not
