to be well founded is that the propor- 

 tion of doubles may be increased in the 

 case of stocks and asters by sowing 

 old seed. How ancient is this belief is 

 illustrated by a citation, published in 

 the Revue Horticole, from an old gar- 

 den book of 1765j which runs: "Many 

 amateur and professional gardeners are 

 certain that stock seed kept for five 

 or more years gives a larger percentage 

 of doubles than does fresher seed."
