BUYING SEEDS 



^^T^OR the cultivation of a large piece of ground for 



!|J£H| children's gardens, it would be well to buy the seeds 



II^Kf " in bulk. Some of the older children will enjoy 



«K w putting them up in packets and marking them. 



This will be a good school exercise. The teacher, 



with some of the children, might estimate the number 



of lineal feet to be planted with each kind of seed. 



If the teacher does not know the quantity needed 



for this estimate, the seedsman will tell her. If 



there are but few children in the school or a small 



piece of ground to be cultivated, the penny packets will be found 



satisfactory. 



All orders must be sent through the teacher.
