GARDENING BY M YSELF. \ g j 



time you will not forget that there are other 

 things in the world besides bulbs. Do 3'ou 

 want columbines for next year, or holly- 

 hocks, or fox-glove, carnations, sweet w il- 

 liam, or perennial poppies? Then sow them 

 now. These should all be planted early, for 

 if the young seedlings are not well estab- 

 lished before winter, they will surely winter- 

 kill. For larkspur and some other hardy 

 annuals, it is enough if the seeds are in the 

 ground any time before very cold weather. 

 They will lie over till spring. Of course it 

 may happen, that all your seeds for fall sow- 

 ing are in the bulb box — another reason for 

 ordering that early.
