number of spring toilettes and
stunning chapeaux graced that
occasion

with Mrs. Dunlop as the delight-
ful hostess.

direction, and every bag carries with it my personal pledge that these
seeds are well bred/true to name, and the best yielders for Texas con-
ditions.”

with a red cob. This corn is worth $2.25 per bushel. We have a cheap-
er corn in Yellow dent, Giant white, red cob, and* Hickory King, that

cotton seed from Mr. Ferguson and desire to sell you enough of these
seed to plant a small patch so that you may get a start of them. They
are personally guaranteed by Mr. Ferguson and we would be glad to
