BEST OUTDOOR SWEET PEAS. 



Wliat arc the four best sweet peas for 

 <ni1il(i(ir siiiiHiior l)looniing in white, pink, 

 hivcmlcr and juirplc.' VVhen should they 

 lie sown and how many sowings can be 

 mailc of the above four colors to produce 

 continuous crops from early spring to 

 earlv frost.' H. J. H. 



Dorothy l-^ckford, white; (Jountess 

 Si»cnccr, pink; I^ady Grisel Hamilton or 

 Kraiik JX)]by, lavender, and JVavy Blue, 

 <lark l)luo, are excellent varieties of their 

 respective colors. If you should prefer 

 <n'angt'-]iink or light rose-pink, you could 

 substitute ilclcn Lewis or ]\Iiss Willmott 

 for Countess Spencer. The grountl where 

 the peas are sown should be deeply 

 j)lowed and liberally manured and you 

 jshoul<l sow the seed just as soon as pos- 

 sibl(» after frost leaves the ground. The 

 earliest sowing always gives the finest 

 tiowers, and if you sow thinly, or thin 

 the seedlings well when above tlie ground, 

 you will get the finest llowers and fewer 

 jilants ^\ill die off. A second sowing, if 

 made, should be put in not later than 

 May 1, but my experience has been that 

 one sowing will suflice for the season, if 

 thf'sc are well cared for. C. W. 



WELCOME. 



.bilin Kent, of Knoxville, Tenn., sends 



the following, which he says was inscribed 



at the entrance of a garden which he had 



charge of in the old days in England: 



Wolcoiiip to view the beauty of this place, 

 Raised by the pardener's skill on nature's face; 

 Then feast your eyes, for 'tis of pleasures full, 

 But iiii rude liaud may fruit or flowers pull; 

 For pulling fruit without the Gardener's leave 

 Mankind was ruined by our Mother Kve. 



Wakefielb, R. I. — The greenhouse on 

 the property of Edward L. Welsh, which 

 was partly destroyed by fire early in 

 the winter, has been rebuilt and consid- 

 erably enlarged. Two hydrants are to 

 be put in on the property.

Lancaster, Wis., Feb. 28, 1910 



Aphine Mfg. Co., MsdiBon, N. J. 



Gentlemen: The "Aphine" purchased through your agents, 

 of Chicago, is certainly O. K. I have had universal success 

 with it both as a spray and as a dip. Have dipped plants in 

 full bloom, such as primulas, cinerarias, roses, etc., with no 

 apparent ill effects on the plants or blooms, but with death 

 to the bugs. 



Would like to ask if you would consider it safe to use on 

 edible vegetables, such as cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, etc.? 



There ought to bs u large sale of "Aphine" when the people 

 become acquainted with it, and can be sure of obtaining the 

 results claimed. Yours very truly, 



C. D. STRATTON.
