The Sago Palm or Japanese Fern Palm. See Choice Specialties in Plants and Bulbs, page 5. pai)dar}iis Utiles. (Screw Pine.) One of the most noble, beautiful and useful decorative plants that can be grown. For majestv of form and grace- fully arranged foliage it is almost without an equal, while its vigorous constitution enables it to stand more neglect without serious injury, than almost any other plant we know of. Whether in the window garden, the centre of a vase or hanging basket, or among the piazza plants in summer, it fills a place for which it seems especially adapt- ed. The sharply serrated edges of the leaves are bright red and the body of the leaf green, glistening in the sunlight and rendering it unusually attractive. A plant which will delight everybody. Fine mailing plants, 25c. each. " The Palm and Silk Oak came this morning and it is truly wonderful; they are just as fresh as though they had not been an hour out of the pots. How can you do it?

I feel like trying again.'''—Mrs. A. A.
