WILD FLOWER BLENDS

ness, not differing from other flowers in this respect, for of 
course all flowers are wild flowers somewhere on the earth.

LAWN GRASS SEED 
In buying Lawn Seed you are likely to get just about what 
you are willing to pay for. It comes in many qualities, and 
at as many prices. When you make a new lawn, you are 
building for a long time to come. It doesn’t pay to use poor 
materials, and the basic material then is the grass seed. Our 
AVALON LAWN GRASS BLEND is made up from the fine- 
leafed, long-lived, deep rooting kinds that one needs to pro- 
duce a permanent, velvety turf. Pretty certain you won’t get 
a better lawn mixture anywhere at the price. 1% lb. 70c, 1 Ib. 
$1.25; 2 Ibs. $2.40; 5 lbs. $6.00; 10 lbs. $11.50.

DELICIOUS BLUEBERRIES 
Grow them in your garden. They need somewhat acid soil. 
In many areas the soil is naturally all right. If you are not 
sure, then mix in peat moss where you are going to plant 
them. Decayed oak leaves will do as well, or even old saw- 
dust; or you can apply that low-priced chemical, aluminum 
sulphate. We offer plants of three varieties. CABOT—Harly, 
but long-fruiting semi-dwarf. CONCORD—Heavy-yielding 
mid-season sort. JERSEY—Fine, large-fruited late sort. 
UNIFORM PRICE—Size 12 to 18 inches, each $1.40; 3 for 
$3.70; 10 for $10.00. Prices are postpaid. Plant at least two 
kinds together, for fuller pollenization. 
GOOD STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
For spring delivery we offer healthy, well-rooted plants. A 
bed of Strawberries will give you more real pleasure than 
almost anything else you can grow in that ‘garden for 
eating’. Not less than 25 plants sold of a kind. Highest 
yields are obtained when two kinds are planted in adjoining 
rows. 
FAIRFAX—FEarly ripener, with exceptionally large berries of 
superb flavor. 25 for $1.10; 50 for $1.85; 100 for $3.00; 
250 for $6.00. Postpaid price. 
PREMIER—Quite early, and perhaps most popular of all, 
because of its heavy yields and fine table quality. 25 for 
$1.10; 50 for $1.85; 100 for $3.00; 250 for $6.00. Postpaid 
price. 
FAIRLAND—tThis vigorous, midseason sort, produces large, 
firm berries of high quality. Particularly good for freezing. 
25 for $1.10; 50 for $1.85; 100 for $3.00; 250 for $6.00. 
Postpaid price. 
AMBROSIA—It ripens 
three weeks later than Pre- ) 
mier, and so extends the 
season. Berries of largest 
size, sparkling red, rich, 
piquant flavor. 25 for $1.10; 
50 for $1.85; 100 for $3.00; | 
250 for $6.00. Postpaid — 
price. 
EVERBEARING VARIE- 
TIES—These ripen over a 
long period. Total yield of 
season is about the same _ 
as that of the spring-fruit- 
ing sorts, but since the ripening is spread over a period of 
months, one needs a fairly large planting to get enough fruit 
for use at one time. For the family garden we recommend 100 
plants, 50 each of the two sorts here. MASTODON—Berries 
of large size and delicious flavor. GEM-—Fine companion to 
Mastodon. A variety of proved merit. Plants, either sort, 
25 for $1.90; 50 for $3.15; 100 for $5.00. Postpaid prices. 
A CORNER FOR RASPBERRIES 
Just a few bushes will give you a wealth of fruit. 
LATHAM—Fine, large-fruited, red raspberry for main spring 
crop. Heavy yielder of high quality. Disease-resistant. 
6 plants for $1.60; 12 for $2.80; 25 for $4.80; 50 for $7.50. 
Postpaid price. 
INDIAN SUMMER—Best everbearing variety, yielding heav- 
ily of big red fruits in June, and giving another crop in 
late summer and fall. 6 plants for $1.60; 12 for $2.80; 25 for 
$4.80; 50 for $7.50. Postpaid price.
