| HARDY CARNATION 
Shadow Valley FROM CANADA 
M 67 Shadow Valley is a new hardy garden Carnation we secured 
from Dr. F. L. Skinner, the eminent Canadian horticulturist. His 
nursery is over 200 miles northwest of Winnipeg. We saw Shadow 
Valley there, large healthy clumps with dozens of the beautiful flowers, 
richest scarlet-crimson, on strong stems nearly two feet tall. He has 
grown them for years. They have done well with us. This is the finest 
hardy garden Red Carnation we have ever seen. It blooms constantly 
from late spring until frost. While it has proven hardy in Canada, 
it is so beautiful, so fine that we recommend a winter mulch of first 
an inch of sand and then some lawn rakings or other loose material 
to prevent heaving from alternate freezing and thawing. Order early 
so you will be sure to have this lovely new Carnation in your garden.

Suny Day Blooms Spring Till Frost 
M70 Sunny Day is a new Carnation offered this spring for the first 
time and sold only by Inter-State as it is our own variety. This is 
the best hardy yellow garden Carnation we know. Big flowers, a love- 
ly clean yellow, from late spring to frosts. Graceful stems about 18 
inches tall. Like Shadow Valley we suggest a winter mulch in cold 
states. Each 75c, 3 for $2.00 Postpaid

Shadow Valley Sunny Day 
ap Qrig KAEMPFERI, The Rainbow Iris 
Called Children of the Gods in early days because of their 
gorgeous colors. Few plants can compare with them for spec- 
tacular beauty. Bloom in June and July. Large flat flowers, 
some as large as dinner plates, atop strong stems nearly 3 feet 
tall. The foliage itself is attractive. When planting cover the 
crown with 2 inches of soil. Like a sunny spot, rich soil and 
abundant moisture, especially early in the season and when 
blooming. They like an acid soil (the average soil is slightly 
acid), and will not tolerate lime. Grown from coast to coast. 
Priced very low for extra fine plants. POSTPAID.
