For tremendous crops that will return you a handsome profit, turn to Navlet's San Jose Canner variety this season. Pkt. 15c; oz. 75c; % lb. $2.50; 1 lb. $7.50.

The fruits are invariably of immense size and a good, splen¬ did Tomato, producing right through to the frosts. Always smooth, of firm, solid flesh, and a deep, attractive red in color. It is deliciously flavored and is unsurpassed for salad or slic¬ ing. As a Canning Tomato the Earliest of All has few equals and on account of its firmness it is an excellent shipper. We grow the seeds on our own farms—and seed is taken only from the largest and finest shaped fruits. To make sure of getting the genuine Chas. C.

The fruit is round and of a light scarlet color. Very productive and of fine quality. Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; V4 lb. $1.65; 1 lb. $5.00. EARLIANA “A Very Early Tomato”—This Tomato is not only extremely early but of particularly fine quality, which is very rare in an early Tomato. The flesh is remarkably, solid and it has few seeds. It has the habit peculiar to many early sorts of setting the bulk of its fruit close to the center of the plant, so that they are exposed to the sun and thus ripen early. These quali¬ ties make it particularly useful for a first crop variety. Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.65; 1 lb. $5.00. Where early plants are desired, sow early in the season in hotbeds or boxes, and plant out in the garden as soon as danger from frost is over. An ounce of seed will give 4,000 plants. Tomatoes ripen about 150 days after the seed is sown. PONDEROSA A Tomato of Superior Quality—It is massive in size, pon¬ derous in weight, perfect in shape, smooth as glass, solid and meaty as beefsteak, prodigiously prolific and succeeds every¬ where. It is free from watery cavities—almost seedless—and ripens thoroughly from center to skin, its glowing crimson color permeating the flesh to the heart. Toothsome and rich when sliced—savory and delicious when canned. Unaffected by drought and does not blight or rot. First ripe fruits are often picked in 10 weeks from seed sowing, while late fruits may be gathered until frost. Pkt. 10c; oz. $1.00; 14 lb. $3.00; 1 lb. $6.50. RED PEAR SHAPED A Very Popular Preserving Tomato—As the name implies, the fruit is shaped like a pear—small at the stem and enlarged at the top. It is small, about 2 or 3 inches long.

STONE The Best of Its Type in Every Respect—It ripens evenly to the stem without a crack, and is not subject to rot. Vine vig¬ orous and very productive.

Our stock is distinctly superior to most of that offered under this name, being more uniform, better colored and larger. Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; lb. $1.50; 1 lb. $3.50. GOLDEN QUEEN TROPHY “Finest of the Large Yellow Tomatoes”—The superior flavor of the yellow varieties is bringing them into favor as table fruit, and those who think of a Yellow Tomato as a rough fruit of the old yellow sort will be surprised at this smooth, beautiful fruit, which, though large, is as smooth and well¬ shaped as the best of the red varieties, and of a fine and dis¬ tinct flavor. Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.65; 1 lb. $5.00. A Large and Delicious Tomato—The Trophy was the first of the modern improved Tomatoes. It was of superior color, size and solidity, but lacked smoothness and regularity. By most careful breeding and selection, an improved strain has been developed, and the Trophy now combines all its original good qualities with smoothness, regularity and symmetry of fruit. Vine strong-growing, vigorous and productive. Fruit very large, very solid, fine flavored and a beautiful deep, rich red in color. Pkt. 10c; oz. 35c; lb. $1.15; 1 lb. $3.50.

SINCE 1885 VELVETY GREEN LAWN/ PLANT NAVLET’S SUPERB LAWN GRASS SEED RED, or CREEPING FESCUE (Pestuca rubra var. genuiua)— A creeping rooted variety imported in limited quantities from Europe. It quickly forms a lasting, dark green, fine leaved, close sod and is therefore ideal for lawns. This grass is described as producing the most beautiful of all lawns throughout the year. Forms an extensive matted root sys¬ tem which adapts it well to embankments and terraces. Suc¬ ceeds in light and sandy soils and can stand both exposure and shade. This must not be confused with the common Red Fescue often offered at a much lower price. 1 lb. $2.50; 10 lbs. $24.00, postpaid. There are many advantages of well-blended mixtures for special and general use. The principal reason for such blends is the fact that each grass lives, to a great extent, on different constituents. The season that would completely check the growth of one variety of grass will act as an encouragement to some other variety, so that the complete failure of a mixture is practically impossible. If you will let us know your soil conditions and exposure of your contemplated lawn or lawns, we shall be glad to advise you as to what we consider the best lawn grass or lawn grass mixture so that you may have the best lawn possible. A glar¬ ing error is made in selecting lawn grass seed on a basis of price, because of the fact that there is a wide variance in the number of seed grains to the pound, giving proportionately more or less coverage to the pound. And further, the cost of good seed per hundred square feet is negligible a's compared with the cost of putting in a lawn and the care over a period of years.

P.)—It is of vigorous growth and an abundant bloomer—literally a mass of bloom when at its best. The flowers are of grand size—rare beauty—and an intense crimson in color. One of the most satisfactory Roses to grow. For a Successful Rose Garden When to Plant—Winter or early Spring is the best time to plant Roses, especially in California. When plants are received, we recommend unpacking immediately and soaking the roots in wa,ter for three or four hours. Prune roots to five or six inches, cutting off all bruised parts. Leave three branches to shape the plant, cutting back each to about eight inches. GEO. AHRENDS—(H. P.)—(Pink American Beauty)—Satiny- pink. The growth of the plant is very good. Strong grower. This is the very popular “Pink American Beauty.” Where to Plant—Roses should be planted where they are sheltered from the wind and receive sun during the day. A heavy loam is best; never use fresh manures. Diseases and Insects—For mildew (appears as gray¬ ish-white spots, then dark areas that cause shoots and leaves to curl and become stunted) dust with finely ground sulphur every 10 days until disease disappears. (green plant lice that suck the sap, thus stunting growth) dust at once with NAVCO NICOTINE DUST 5N, or spray with Evergreen (see page 82). If mildew is present at the same time, dust with NAVCO NICOTINE-SULPHUR GARDEN DUSTS. (This is a combination package containing one of Sulphur and one of Nicotine Dust. They can be mixed, if desired.)

No wonder that the flower buyers have fallen in love with it. CLIMBING MME. CAROLINE TESTOUT—(H. T.)—A ramnant climber. In flower identical with Mme. C. Testout. Beautiful glowing pink. You can’t beat it THESE VARIETIES CRIMSON RAMBLER—A grand climber—a peculiar and lovely crimson. The flowers form in magnificent pyramidal clusters, each cluster a perfect bouquet of Roses in itself. The foliage is a bright green, and contrasts finely with the flowers. An„ EACH Delivered nn for 12 Delivered BANKSIA WHITE—A thornless climbing Rose, with glossy ever-green foliage. The flowers are small but bloom in great profusion in Spring and early Summer. BANKSIA YELLOW—Deep yellow blossoms. DOROTHY PERKINS—(H. W.)—Shell-pink, extremely hardy, vigorous and free-blooming. The shoots frequently grow 15 to 30 feet in one season. The flowers are borne in immense clusters of 30 to 40. They are perfectly double, with crinkled petals and excellently adapted for cutting and decorating. Dorothy Perkins is a grand Rose to plant on trellis, tall trees, sheds or arbors. DR. W. VAN FLEET—The Flesh Pink Climbing Rose—The parentage of Souvenir du Pres. Carnot X Rosa Wichuraiana. The open flowers are four inches and over in diameter. The center is built high, petals beautifully undulated and cupped. The flowers are full and double, of delicate perfume, buds pointed, stems twelve to eighteen inches. HIAWATHA—A brilliant single, ruby carmine, with a clear white eye and a mass of golden stamens—a glowing combina¬ tion of colors. PILLAR OF GOLD—(T.)—A glorious climbing yellow Rose. SILVER MOON—(W.) —Silver Moon is the result of a most interesting cross. Rosa Wichuraiana X Rosa Senica—Chero¬ kee Rose. The flowers are 4% inches and over in diameter. Clear silvery white in color, petals of great substance and beautifully cupped. The center is filled with bright yellow stamens, a very attractive feature. They are borne on strong stems, 12 to 18 inches long, and are delicately fragrant. SINGLE CHEROKEE—Large, clear white, single flowers, full of bright yellow stamens in the center. Very odd. Dark rich carmine foliage. TAUSENDSCHOEN—(Pol.) — (Thousand Beauties)—The flow¬ ers upon first opening are of the most delicate shade of pink ever seen in a Rose; might be described as a white delicatelyflushed pink, changing to rosy-carmine. It gets its name from its many flowers and the variations in coloring. LADY GAY—Blossoms borne in immense clusters. Color, soft pink. Especially useful for growing in pots for Easter deco¬ ration. PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER—(W.) —■ The flowers of this superb Rose are vivid scarlet, shaded with bright crimson, and are produced in the greatest profusion in large clusters of medium-sized semi-double blossoms. This variety sur¬ passes in brilliancy of color any other Climbing Rose and the flowers remain unusually long in good condition. It also forces well under glass. It has been awarded the Gold Medal of the National Rose Society, also the Cory Cup as the best New British Climbing Rose, and an Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. PINK MAMAN COCHET—(T.)—Blooms all through the year, producing large, magnificent pink flowers on stems that are as long as those on the bush varieties. RAMONA—The new red single Cherokee—.a sport of the fa¬ mous Pink Cherokee. The color is one unusual in Roses; rich carmine overlaid with a lustrous sheen which is impossible of reproduction with the artist’s brush. During the Spring months the plants are literally covered with blooms. REINE MARIE HENRIETTE—(Red Marechal Neil)—This Rose is one of the prettiest free-blooming climbers we know oi. There is no Rose that blooms so freely and produces such beautiful flowers as the Reine Marie Henriette. The flowers are large and double, of bright cherry-red color. Sweetly scented, with long stems. A Rose that can be used for deco¬ rations and for bouquets. STAR OF PERSIA—Bright yellow semi-double flowers, meas¬ uring about three inches across. Very fragrant. The foliage is a very dark green. — Climbing White Maman Cochet SINGLE PINK CHEROKEE—(Cher.)—A charming Climbing Rose that we introduced a few years ago. Its habit is simi¬ lar to the well-known Single White Cherokee, but it is of stronger growth, and its flowers are almost half again as large. Its blossoms are an exceedingly beautiful lively shellpink—a trifle lighter in color at the end of the petals—and its luxuriant foliage is darker and richer than that of the white variety. No lover of Roses can afford to be without this new novelty. SUNBURST—(H. T.)—The flowers are of a rich orange-yellow with touches of golden and coppery-yellow. The beautiful petals lighten toward the tip. WHITE MAMAN COCHET—(T.)—In form and substance the flowers are identical with the Pure White Maman Cochet— but on account of its vigorous habit, the climbing variety is larger and more beautiful than the bush. 46 BARGAINS NAVLET*f I H( I AI 4 AIN# PLANTS, SEEDS AND SHRUBS Chrysanthemums Twelve wonderful Chrysanthemums -—our selection—and every one a beauty!

Chas. C. Navlet Co.’s PLANTING SUGGESTIONS A sunny location is preferable. The ground should be worked at least 12 inches deep. If the soil is heavy, burnt ashes will improve the conditions considerably, and if possible a little sand mixed in will be of additional help. If, on the other hand, the ground is sandy or light, add loam and well-rotted manure and mix well to a'depth of at least 12 inches. DO NOT, when planting, bury the plants any deeper in the ground than they were in the pots, or they may die from “stem rot.” Do not plant them any nearer than 18 inches, and care¬ fully stake the plants when sufficient growth warrants staking. Water frequently. When taking off dead blooms, cut the stems off as far back as possible, which will induce new growths and help to keep the plants bushy. If large blooms are deemed only nn» or two buds should be allowed to each stem. Carnation plants may he left in the open throughout the Winter, haying been cut back to 6 to 8 inches of the soil. — CARNATION BARGAIN 6 STRONG PLANTS « UC -lO STRONG fig "8 POSTPLANTS CpiL.AdiJ PAID This collection is made up from the varieties listed on this page.

It costs much less than glass and for many purposes is superior. Anyone can put it up. It admits abundant light which it diffuses and scatters to all parts of the enclosure. It comes in rolls 36 inches wide and any length. Originated 1916. Proven by 11 years’ success. Simply tack GLASS CLOTH over your screens to make fine storm doors and windows. Enclose your porch for the Winter by using GLASS CLOTH on light frames. Brings Winter com¬ fort. Shuts out cold. Ideal for enclosing porches and sleeping porches.

At only a fraction of the cost and in one-fourth the time you can mend that window with GLASS CLOTH. Some tacks and a hammer are all you need. Keep a roll around the house for emergencies.

Do you want to know how to have a successful gar¬ den all the year around? Then keep this catalog handy and refer to these Planters’ Guide pages whenever you have a garden problem. If you don’t find the answer here, write to us for the information. We have correspondents who read and write French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese, as well as English. NAVLET’S POPULAR GARDEN CALENDAR This Guide shows you what flowers and vegetables to plant every month in the year. Intended primarily for California con¬ ditions, it can be used for northern States by making a suitable allowance for difference in climate—usually planting should be done a few weeks later. JANUARY FLOWER GARDEN—As next month will be a busy month it is well to get everything ready, seeds selected and the ground all spaded up. Have a definite plan of what you are to plant and where it is to be planted. In other words, lay out your garden in detail before beginning to sow your seeds. When beds are to be made use well-rotted manure and work well into the soil. Some of the Bulbs planted in the fall should be blooming during this month; in fact, a January garden is mainly dependent on this form of flowers. Com¬ mence planting the following Bulbs: Dahlias, Tuberoses, Cal¬ adium, Madeira Vine Root, Cinnamon Vine and continue plant¬ ing the following Bulbs: Agapanthus, Amaryllis (Belladonna), Anemones, Bleeding Heart, Crocus, Cyclamen, Freesia, Daffo¬ dil, Gladiolus, Hyacinths, Ixias, Jonquil, Japanese Lilies, Jap¬ anese Iris, Easter Lilies, Calla Lily, Narcissus, Paeonies, Ra¬ nunculus, Snowdrops, Sparaxis, Spanish Iris, Tulips, Lily-ofthe-Valley. If Sweet Peas are planted this month the roots will be stronger and the blossoms more profuse than if planted later. All deciduous shrubs and evergreens can now be planted. VEGETABLE GARDEN—Some few vegetables, such as Beets, Carrots, Lettuce, Mushroom Spawn, Parsley, Peas, Rad¬ ishes, Rutabagas and Turnips may be planted all the year round. During this month begin planting Broccoli, Early Cabbage and Kale. Commence setting out Rhubarb Roots, Brussels Sprouts. Near the end of the month, in sunny situa¬ tions, all early Potatoes, including Gold Coin, may be planted. Gold Coin Potatoes will mature three weeks earlier than any other extra early varieties. Beds already planted should be dressed with about 3 inches of manure well rotted. During the latter part of the month Tomatoes, Melons, Peppers, Squashes and Egg Plant may be sown under glass for plant¬ ing later. Continue to plant Cauliflower and Spinach, Onion Sets, Onion Seeds and Parsnips. Clean up the garden, as next month is a busy one.

Do not set out Tomato Plants, Egg Plants and Peppers until all danger of frost is over. See that your garden is kept clean, weed often, hill up rows and watch out for insects and slugs. During this month many vegetable plants may be bought ready to transplant instead of raising them from seed. In many instances it will save trouble and perhaps expense. APRIL FLOWER GARDEN—There are still quite a goodly number of Bulbs that may be freely planted during this month. They are: Agapanthus, Dahlias, Dielytra, Gladiolus, Paeonies, Tube¬ roses, Caladium, Madeira Vine, Cinnamon Vine and Lily-ofthe-Valley. Among the flower seeds that you should commence planting are the different ornamental Gourds. Nearly all flower seeds may be planted during April; in fact, all of those listed under the February calendar, except Centaureas. Watch for the bugs and keep the weeds down. Watch your Rose Bushes, and if troubled with green aphis, use Navco Nicotine Dust freely. VEGETABLE GARDEN—Continue transplanting Egg Plant, Pepper and Tomatoes. Set out Sweet Potato plants.

All flower seeds given in the Febru¬ ary calendar may be planted except Acroclinium, Centaurea, Phlox and Rhodanthe. Gourds may be planted this month. When Hyacinths, Tulips and other bulbs die down, dig them up and store away in a cool, dry place until fall, when they may be replanted. The vacant places thus created should be filled with Dahlias, Petunias, Pansies, Salvias and other flow¬ ering plants. VEGETABLE GARDEN—Continue to plant Asparagus, Arti¬ choke, Pole and Bush Beans, Beets, Broccoli, Celery, Chicory, Collards, Carrots, Corn Salad, Sweet Corn, Cucumbers, Dande¬ lion, Endive, Kohl Rabi.

VEGETABLE GARDEN—Continue sowing Onions, Beets, Carrots, Cauliflower, Lettuce, Mushroom Spawn, Parsley Rad^VeS’J?-utabagas’ Spinach and Turnips. Clean up and burn all rubbish. Work over the ground already dug up and ma¬ nured and plan for next year’s garden. SIX RULES FOR A SUCCESSFUL GARDEN There are two kinds of soil in California. One is the raw soil that packs so hard that vegetation cannot take root. The other soil is as pliable as sand, and ought to grow anything, but will not. They need life (humus), and there is nothing better to put life into soil than a green manuring crop plowed under at the right time, and to thoroughly air the soil by cul¬ tivation. 1— ho not plant close; give vegetables enough room to grow. 2— Have soil good and moist when planting. 3— Irrigation is always preferable over sprinkling. 4— Cultivation as soon as possible following irrigation is es¬ sential. 5— Try to keep all growing stuff growing continuously; a check in growth almost equals a failure. 6— Always have ground good and wet where you transplant any plant to permanent location. For your garden gather weeds, leaves, etc. Put them in a pile to rot. This will add humus. For the field, grow vetch, melilotus, or horse beans during the Winter months, and in the spring plant cow peas. All these crops will furnish feed for the stock as well as humus to the soil. Cover crops for green manuring should be plowed under a month before planting and before sowing any seed the field should be thoroughly irrigated and cultivated. If this is not done a dry crust will form over the humus. CAREFUL PREPARATION IMPORTANT To grow well, a plant requires a deep, mellow, moist soil, supolied with the right amount of air. heat and available plant food. An important step, then, in the successful growing of vegetables is to prepare the soil in such a way that it will be congenial to the best root growth. The soil for truck crops is a rich sandy loam—a soil containing varying proportions of clay, sand and organic matter. A good garden soil can be made in most back yards by intelligent management, and an application of two pounds each of Toro Sulphur and lime to every 100 square feet. In a deep, mellow soil, the plants grow more quickly, since larger root systems can be developed and more food and moisture absorbed. A deep, mellow soil affords a larger reser¬ voir to hold rain needed during the droughts that come in the growing season. Such a soil is warmer and contains air needed for the growing roots and for the bacteria that cause decay of organic matter or gather nitrogen from the soil air. Clay is easily injured by tilling when it is not in the right condition. If worked too wet, the particles all slide together into a compact mass. On the other hand, if worked too dry, the clods are hard to break. When clay soil is in the right con¬ dition to work it will crumble apart if squeezed in the hand. If it sticks together it is too wet. Clay soil should never be worked when it is wet, not even with a hoe. Calcium Sulphate will help very materially to break up this type of soil. — 86 — Even the Amateur Gardener Can Make a Successful Hot-Bed Good hot-beds can be made by digging down about three feet and filling the excavation with rather fresh horse manure in which there is a good deal of bedding straw. About 18 inches of this manure is sufficient and then fill in on top of it with about one foot of good soil mixed with sand. This manure pile will be compressed and will soon begin to ferment and will then keep the top soil warm and cause the seed to sprout quickly and the young plants will grow very fast. It is best to en¬ close the hot-bed with boards, making what is called a cold-frame. This is done by running the length of the bed east and west and by making the north side about two feet high and the south side not more than six inches. The ends also should be enclosed and a sash of glass should he hung on hinges at the highest end. This sash should be raised for ventilation during most of the day, since the bed gets very warm and the atmosphere very close if kept too tightly closed for too long a time. As the plants grow, the sash should be left up longer each day to harden them and prepare them for final transplanting. The hot-bed should have a very sunny location near a hedge or some building, well protected from the prevail¬ ing wind. The object of the cold-frame is to make an artificial heat, and to protect the plants from frost during the Winter. Seed may be started at any time during the Winter, and the plants can be ready to set out just as soon as danger of frost is over. As the sun gets too hot it is necessary to shade the bed and the glass should be whitewashed or covered with sacking if necessary. Too much heat is fatal to the ten¬ der young plants. PLANTERS’ GUIDE WHERE TC PLANT CLAS^IEIEP Quite often we are asked as to what flowers are suitable for planting in certain locations, and as to their most suitable uses. We have therefore classified all the different flowers of which we sell seeds or plants for convenient reference. Where any variety is suitable for more than one use, we have entered it in the separate classes. Perennials are separated from Annuals, and Biennials are classed with the Perennials. Plants that will do well in a shady location we have indicated by (s) after the name, and those that will do well in partially shaded locations are indicated by (ps).

They are not necessarily annual in their dura¬ tion, in the sense of dying and complet¬ ing their cycle within twelve months. The annuals are of easy propagation, being grown from seeds of the previous year. Whether the seeds should be start¬ ed indoors depends on the region, the species, the season in which bloom is de¬ sired. Small delicate seeds should be started under cover for protection from beating rains and winds, whatever the region, north or south. Very few an¬ nuals bloom continuously from early to late. The best results are obtained by repeated sowings at intervals. The seed¬ lings should be transplanted before they crowd in the boxes. PERENNIALS Perennials are herbaceous plants that live three years or more. Many of the herbaceous perennials propagate from off-sets and divisible parts. Most of the herbaceous perennials propagate readily by means of seeds. The Larkspur, Cam¬ panula, Golden Rods, Chrysanthemums, and many others, may be grown easily from seeds sown in the open ground in Spring. It is preferable to raise the seed¬ lings in boxes or beds and transplant in Autumn or Spring to permanent quarters. Seeds of many perennials, particularly those borne in fleshy capsules or berries, do not grow until they pass the Winter's frost, and some will not germinate until the second Spring. With most herbace¬ ous perennials, the best bloom is obtained with young plants; after the second bloom the plant may begin to fail or to become root-bound. We encourage the practice of growing perennials from seed. HOW TO SOW Success from sowing seeds depends upon having your soil right as to moist¬ ure and texture, your seed sown at a proper depth and where the sunshine can furnish the heat. Soil that is hard and going to bake is not right to start seeds in. Take such soil in the Fall and spade in manure or Humus and let it rot for several months, and then work up fine. In Spring add to - a heavy, that is, clayey soil, Humus, and sand (sharp, fresh¬ water sand), so that there is one-third loam, one-third sand and one-third leaf mould. This makes an excellent soil for starting fine seeds. For potting add a small amount of old sheep manure. SEEDS IN THE OPEN Seeds of hardy annuals may be sown directly in the bed where they are to re¬ main. Have the ground well worked up and mixed with Humus if needed. The soil should be well moistened, not wet and soggy, and not, by any means, dry when the seeds are sown. Put all medium¬ sized seeds at a depth of one-quarter to one-half inch. Sweet Peas should go deeper. Very fine seed should be pressed into the soil and a little sand or Peat (see page 83) sifted over them. Water more frequently if the seed is close to the surface, and if necessary protect them with cheese cloth while watering. These seeds are best sown in the open, so as not to be transplanted: Eschscholtzia, Nasturtium, Poppy. If the seed be sown directly in the garden, it should be sown in the Spring after the soil is well worked and when in moist condition. When up, the plants must be thinned from two to twelve inches, depending on the variety, otherwise they will be weak and spindling. SEEDS IN BOXES Always use care in getting a good loam as described above. Use no manure in any seed bed. Boxes 4 inches deep and 18x24 inches are the usual size. See that good drainage is provided by boring holes in the bottom: fill with the fine prepared soil, which should be moist but not wet enough to stick together when squeezed with the hand. Sow the seed about onequarter inch deep, except fine seeds. Water so as to keep the soil always just moist. Water carefully and regularly. A pane of glass over the box adds more heat, pro¬ tects from draught, prevents drying out and is not necessary except for difficult seeds. The box should be in the sunlight. When the plants are in third or fourth leaf they should be pricked out and reset in another box with plenty of room, for it is important that the plant be of good size, strong and sturdy, when finally transplanted in the garden. — S8 — PLANTERS’ GUIDE PLANTING TABLE !i 11 Vv !

To get the largest blooms and long stems you should pinch off all the buds except the leading top bud. The best time to water Carnations is in the morning. TIME TO PLANT—The best time to plant Carnations is from November to June, although they can be planted all the year round. Carnation plants generally become exhausted in two years and should be replenished. By following these culture directions anyone can grow the choicest of Carnations. ENCOURAGE NEW GROWTH—Each year, after the leaves bave ^a^en* have left the canes bare, cut off the canes that have fruited during the summer so they will be level with the surface of the ground, then new canes will sprout out. Al¬ low to remain for the coming season. After they have grown, prune off or pinch the tips of each cane to force out the laterals (side branches). It is the new growth that produces the choicest fruit. If the old canes are left on the plants they will produce inferior fruit. If you intend to tie the canes to stakes or a trellis, let the ati'-aln a of 5 to 6 feet before pinching or pruning i tfle,tlPsx of the new cane growth. If you intend to teach p] alone’ Pinch off the tips when 2 to 4 feet high. REMOVE OLD CANE—All old cane and other debris should oe removed from the rows after pruning. Blackberries require a rich ground, and plenty of well-rotted stable manure or compost should be applied as soon as the patch is cleaned up. Blackberries should be planted in rows from 6 to 8 feet apart, ana the plants 3 feet apart in each row, as they have a con¬ stant tendency to spread themselves in the rows. CHRYSANTHEMUM CULTIVATION HOW TO PLANT—Chrysanthemums are one of the easiest plants to grow. They thrive in almost any soil, and require a sunny exposure. To prepare the soil, use one-quarter of decayed manure and work it in thoroughly about 12 inches deep. The young plants should be set out about 2 feet apart, the ground pressed around the roots, and watered freely. TO GET LARGE BLOOMS—After the young plants have grown 12 inches, pinch them back about 4 inches, then each plant will send out from 3 to 4 stems. In order to give strength to the flowers, mulch, or cover, the ground with a j ^rom 1 to 2 inches of decayed manure. As soon a? the buds appear on stems, let the largest remain and pinch off all others. Water freely in the morning. CURRANTS AND GOOSEBERRIES EASY TO GROW—Culture of Currants and Gooseberries ■ •onsists m cleaning them of the dead wood in winter and thinn*ng\the new shoots in the spring, as may be desired. They k6 gI!own Jn. rows from 5 to 6 feet apart, and the plants should be planted in rows 2 to 3 feet apart. For mildew use sulphur. DAHLIA CULTIVATION SOIL AND LOCATION—The Dahlia loves the open, sunny situations, and for convenience and ease in cultivation a rich, mellow soil is preferred. The Dahlia possesses a happy and ea-sy-going disposition, and readily adapts itself to almost any soil or situation, except dense shade and wet, sour soil. Dahlia plants or bulbs can be set as soon as danger of frost is over Young plants or divided bulbs produce larger and finer flow¬ ers than large undivided clumps of bulbs. , ®*^*SXON OP BULBS—Dahlia bulbs should be taken out of tne ground and divided every year to obtain the best results, in dividing Dahlia bulbs one should be very careful not to pull tnem aparT, but use a knife, and be sure to cut part of the stem with the bulb so as to have an eye on the bulbs, other¬ wise the bulb will not grow. In preparing the soil use well-decayed manure, mixed thor¬ oughly with the soil before planting. Dahlias do not do well if over-fertilized. FOR LARGE FLOWERS—To obtain large blooms or Exhibi¬ tion flowers, select the largest bud on each stock and pinch off atl the rest; by so doing the flowers reach an enormous size. It troubled with Aphis use Nico-Dust No. 6. For Slugs use Nico-Dust No. 5. (See page 83.) Treatment of the soil is the same as for Blackberries. STRAWBERRY CULTURE BEST SUCCESS—The ground should be prepared by digging or plowing about 12 Inches deep. The soil should be h enricbed thoroughly rotted stable manure or ground e’ f.r arLy, other good fertilizer, and worked thoroughly in , Make the beds about 3 feet wide, so as to accommoanart3p:,?hWL0i pi?nt,®The Plants should be set 15 inches f PinVV,fo D?n \ allow runner plants to set closer than 4 inches after the plants begin to send out runners. soil must ^ave amP’e room to build up.

TIMS TO PLANT—Roses should be set out when the plants are dormant or when the leaves begin to fall. Planting season begins about November 15th. HOW TO PLANT—The Rose delights in an open, airy situa¬ tion; all types are partial to clay loam, but will succeed in any ordinary soil if enriched with decayed manure. Dig up the soil thoroughly to a depth of 12 to 15 inches. When the bush is planted press the soil firmly over the roots. Make a basin around the plant, and water freely to exclude "air, and settle the earth. PRUNING—This operation is best performed during the dormant season. Most Roses do better if moderately pruned We usually remove from one-third to two-thirds of the past year s growth, and all weak or decayed wood should be en¬ tirely cut out. As a rule, the more vigorous the variety the less it should be pruned.

If not attended to, mildew will greatly retard the growth of the plant and impair the quality of the flower. Sprinkle with our powdered sulphur. If powdered sulphur is used early in the morn¬ ing, when the dew is on the leaves, the remedy will be most effective. Otherwise spray with water before using the sulphur, so it will adhere to the leaves. (See page 83.) CARNATION CULTIVATION Carnations will thrive in almost any soil.

ROSE BUG—This little rogue is about the size of a house-fly and crawls out of the ground in early Spring; powdered white hellebore, or a solution of whale oil soap are the best remedies. 5s IMPORTANT—Stopping the growth of the young f’ifPts by pinching off the leading shoots is one of the most mportant operations connected with Carnation culture. By sbo°ts the result is to produce a greater number or growths and make a bushy plant. ROSE SLUG—This pest is about an inch long and of a grayish color. It appears early in the Spring and feasts upon the opening buds and flowers. (See pages 82, 83.) 91 CHAS. C. NAVLET CO., Inc. PLANTING . GREETING . PRUNING PUPPING TPUIT TPEET HOW TO BUD AND GRAFT PLANTING—The holes should be dug at least 8 inches to one foot larger in every direction than required by the roots when spread out in their natural position; top soil should be broken down from the edge, and raised to a cone in the center of the hole to set the tree on, and the roots then brought to their natural position; then carefully shovel in the top soil (which should be made quite fine) between the roots until cov¬ ered; then tramp firmly as the filling up progresses; when nearly all filled in, place two inches of fine soil on top. TIME TO PLANT—Generally speaking, last half of Decem¬ ber, all of January and February, is the best time, but good results may be obtained from March and even April planting. Depends on the rainfall in early fall and late spring. FERTILIZE—If soil requires it, use fertilizers, the safer way being to use a mulch, or scatter on the surface after planting; then cultivate in if a commercial fertilizer is used. In no instance put manure in the hole when planting, as it will burn the roots. PROTECT TREES—The “Yucca palm fiber’’ tree protectors are the best, as they are easily put on and will last a long time. Most orchardists advise use of some protection around young trees when planting out.

A few simple rules that anyone can easily understand, and a few experiments will convince the most skeptical that with a little care the calling in of an expert is not at all necessary. The first fact to be borne in mind is the proper time to bud and graft. GRAFTING Grafting Fruit or Nut Trees in California must be done when the trees are dormant. This is usually any time be¬ tween December and February, according to the section of the State.

HOW TO PRUNE The tops should be shortened in more or less, depending on the size, variety and condition of the trees. In commercial orchards one-year-old trees are cut down to from 18 inches to 2 feet above ground, and all the side limbs are cut to one or two buds; two-year-old trees with formed tops should be shortened in from 6 inches to 1 foot of main stem. No Summer pruning should be done the first year; strong growing side limbs on lower part of the tree can be shortened in from 6 inches to 1 foot from stem, so that the leaves left will shade the trees. APPLE AND CRABAPPLE—Trees should not be allowed to carry too many branches, and pruning will largely consist of thinning out surplus shoots, and removing interference be¬ tween branches. It is not desirable to shorten-in the Apple, as is done with the Apricot and Peach. APRICOTS—The practice is to remove half or two-thirds of the new growth and thin out by removing enough new and old wood to prevent the tree from becoming thick and bushy. ALMONDS—The tree should be headed low and pruned dur¬ ing the first three years to secure a shapely, strong tree. After the third year little pruning is required except to thin out ob¬ jectionable branches by Winter pruning. CHERRY—The Cherry tree may be pruned the same as any other deciduous fruit tree, until it is about five years old; after that the less pruning the better. FIGS—After getting the general shape of the tree, there is little need of pruning except to remove defective branches or those which cross and interfere with each other. It is better to remove branches entirely than shorten them, or, in shorten¬ ing, always cut to a strong lateral. Stubs left in pruning are very undesirable. ORANGE—LEMON—POMELO—The Orange tree is more disposed, naturally, to assume a good form than most other trees, and for this reason it requires as little pruning as possible. Overcome the tendency of the young trees to run long shoots, which interfere with irrigation and cultivation. Remove de¬ fective branches and those which will cross and interfere with each other. PEACH AND NECTARINE—The Peach, fruiting only on wood of the previous year’s growth, bears fruit farther away from the body of the tree each year, and the small shoots of from one-eighth to three-sixteenths in diameter begin to de¬ cline when the fruit is removed. To have healthy growth, all of these small branches must be removed. PEAR—Prune straggling branches; thin out so that the branches will not wind around each other, but don’t cut the top. The more you cut the more wood you get. After the tree comes into full bearing it is plenty of time to head back. PLUMS AND PRUNES—The annual growth must be shortened-in every Winter from one-half to two-thirds, and all lat¬ erals and fruit spurs must be cut back at every pruning. CHESTNUT—PERSIMMON—POMEGRANATE—QUINCE— Require practically no pruning, except to remove defective branches and those which interfere with each other. WALNUT—All the pruning needed is to obtain the general shape. Whenever shoots are killed back by frost or by sun¬ burn, they should be cut off cleanly below the black mark which shows how far the injury has extended. If this is done, the die-back down the branches is usually prevented. Never trim more branches or cut scions than can be finished the same day. Do not allow water to be¬ come mixed with wax, and it is best not to do graft¬ ing on a rainy day. One graft or scion to a 1-inch limb, or 3 scions to a 3-inch stub is a good rule to follow. First select the scions, which should have three or four healthy buds thereon, and shape as in Fig. (e), being at the base in the form of a wedge or like the letter V. Next select the tree upon which the graft is to be made, being sure to select a healthy limb. Saw off with a sharp saw from 6 inches to 2 feet from the main trunk. Then take a grafting knife and make a clean cut as in Fig. (a) in the illustration above, about 3 inches deep; spread the cut with back hook of grafting knife to allow insertion of grafts as in Fig. (b), which for convenience sake has been shown as though a section of the tree had been removed, making sure that the wedge is just below the upper surface of cut. Figure (c) shows the grafts as they actually appear. The next step is to cover the tops of grafts and stump of branch with grafting wax of best quality, as shown in Fig. (d), filling the cut across the end of limb and along the sides following the cut, to exclude the air, so the scion or graft will not dry out, and be given a chance to grow. BUDDING Budding should be done in the spring and summer, when the bark can easily be separated. First prepare the bud as it appears in Fig. (f) as shown in the illustration below; next select the branch on which the bud is to be inserted. It is always well to select the bud from a healthy tree or branch and, of course, to select a healthy limb for the incision. With a budding or other sharp knife, make a T-shaped in¬ cision a little longer than the bud, in the bark of limb, in a smooth place of bark on the parent tree, as shown in Fig (a); next roll back the bark as shown in Fig. (b); then in¬ sert bud as in Fig. (c); gently press bud down into the in¬ cision until firmly placed against the inner wood as shown in Fig. (d); next tie securely the bud and bark with twine, starting above the bud and working downward, as shown in Fig. (e), making sure that the twine is directly above and be¬ low the bud. Cut string in two to three signs of abrasing the bark. weeks, before the string shows You may grow several different varieties of fruit on one tree, but always remember that a stone fruit can only be budded or grafted on a stone fruited tree. Roses should be budded after the spring blooms have died down, but may be budded all through the active growing season. Why not have more roses? You may have a dozen different varieties of roses on one bush. — 92 — PLANTERS’ GUIDE AND /il I V« D VELVETY EAWN/ SOW ANY MONTH—Lawns can be made in California any month in the year, but if made from September to May will require less care and water. The ground should be well pre¬ pared. The soil should not be too rich, as at the start a rapid growth is not wanted from Grass sowed for lawns. PREPARATION OF SOID—After the ground is thoroughly worked, roll the soil before seeding to prevent the soil from settling uneven. After the soil is rolled, then rake the sur¬ face lightly. Sow the seed so as to cover the ground thor¬ oughly with seed. After seeding cover seed lightly with soil. Then roll again so as to press the seed in firmly.

Famous for their superb form, superb fragrance, and matchless beauty. Every garden should have its bed or border of violets. Order an assort¬ ment of each of these. MARIE LOUISE—A MAGNIFICENT DOUBLE VIOLET MARIE LOUISE—This beautiful Violet is a great favorite. It is a prolific bloomer and will thrive in shady places where most plants will not do well. The foliage is extremely luxuriant and of a pleasing, glossy green. The large double blooms are exquisitely perfumed and are borne on long, strong stems. Plants, 12 for 75c, postpaid; $5.00 per 100. CALIFORNIA—The largest and most productive Violet in cultivation. The flowers are single in form, and while almost as large as a silver dollar, they have that sweet simplicity pe¬ culiar to the Violet. The color is pure, rich violet-blue and does not fade. The flowers are borne on long stems, 10 to 14 inches in length, well above the foliage, which is an un¬ usual feature among Violets. Plants, 12 for 50c, postpaid; 100 for $3.50, postpaid. PRINCESS OP WALES—A glorious and very fragrant variety of fine habit — Sturdy growth and justly famous for its early and continuous blooming and the immense number of flowers it bears. It is a distinct type of the California Violet—being a lighter purple. The flowers average larger than a silver dollar, and are borne on gracefully poised stems from 12 to 14 inches long. Plants, 12 for 30c, postpaid; 100 for $3.50. PURPLE KING—For size, order Prin¬ cess of Wales—for profusion of flow¬ ers, order the Purple King. You have never seen a Violet bear so abun¬ dantly as this. It is a perfect mar¬ vel. And while the blooms are of only medium size, they are, neverthe¬ less, perfect in form with a soft vel¬ vety sheen that is indescribably at¬ tractive. One of the chief features is the fact that they will keep a week after picking. 12 choice plants, 50c, postpaid; 100 plants for $3.50. ofl&VLET'S 1930 CATALOG and PLANTERS GUIDE gsr |j|| 7 » . ,» pi \ M 1 < ■ ■ ■ » l$s > V- ' lit HH£; -■> ■ ' ’■ 1 *, ■ flfe.V ■ St4; NURSEIWMEN-SEEDSMEN-FLORISTS 20 & 2,2, E.
