i INDIAN CURE-ALL PLANT

(Also known as Mescal Button, Dry Whiskey, Sacred Mushroom and the botanical name is Lo- phophora Williamsii. It is a cactus.)

"Be the first to get this rare and unusual plant! Dozens of books and hundreds ^ o¥ newspaper and magazine articles 1 have been written about this unusual plan^. It is spineless and bluish in col- /ith a beautiful pink flower. Re- quires practically no attention and is easy to grow.

Aldous Huxley in Saturday Evening

Post (Oct. 18, 1958) has this to say about Peyote, "Taste and see that the Lord is good. The perusal of a page from even the most beautiful written cookbook is no substitute for eating of the dinner."

Peyote is a part of the In- dian religion in the south- west of the U.S. and most of northern Mexico.

PRINT NAME & ADDRESS V A LITTLE CHIT-CHAT FROM AUNT PAT

Our advertisement for three free cactus, if you will send 25c for mailing charges is for three cactus only. The Gold Ball is includ- ed in the three-—not in addition to the three.

All orders are shipped in heavy corrugated boxes—es&eept the three free cactus.

Give your cactus plants about half the water and half the atten- tion you usually give other plants and they will thrive, Also, they must not have over half-sun.

Be sure to get some other cactus catalogs to compare prices ... I'm sure you will find that your old Aunt holds the prices down t@ the very minimum.

Read all of the other papers we enclose with this order f«r timely specials that ar* usually offered for a short while only. P@t all succulents in one third sand and two thirds good s*il. If the roots stand in water just one night they will rot. Cactus is a succulent.

These plants are all house plants and will not stand extreme cold weather. Do not leave them outside when it is freezing weather. Be sure to print your full and correct address each time. We get many packages returned to us because tehe sender did not write it plainly.

Resurrection plant is strictly a curiosity. You cannot grow it and if left in water more than one hour it will rot. If kept dry it will revive when put in water. AUNT PAT
