Like to Try a Crop of Money-Making Spring Asters? 
See page 19 
If you think there’s no money in Asters, you’ve probably 
been growing the ordinary half-single kind with large, 
open centers. Why not try these new, fully double Ball 
Strains? We’re selling more and more of them to grow- 
ers everywhere who say they can’t afford the cheaper 
seed. When you stop to consider that 2 dozen more 
salable flowers out of a trade packet will pay for the 
extra seed cost, it seems a real waste of labor to grow the 
ordinary sorts. 
Our constant breeding and research which have made 
these Asters possible are a part of Ball Service—a serv- 
ice which we are continually striving to improve in every 
way possible. 
NOTE: Because of their extreme doubleness these Asters are 
shy seeders and are sometimes in short supply. Early ordering 
will help insure your requirements. 
Ask the man who grows them! 
Unsolicited comments on Ball Asters. 
Victor H. Davis, Reading, Massachusetts: 
Many thanks for your fine work in producing those two 
remarkable strains of Asters: White Ball and Pink Ball. 
They are the finest Asters I have ever grown. 
Swanson Garden Service, Croton on Hudson, New York: 
Ball Asters came through about 90% wilt-free, long stems, 
very good in open field. 
Philbrick’s & Bailey's Greenhouse, Nashua, New Hampshire: 
Our Ball Asters, White Ball and Pink Ball, are excellent; 
stems up to 28 and 30 inches long.
