53 , SEEDS 
If you answer attractive advertisements and 
buy at “ big bargains’’ you may lose your money, 
or, what is worse, you may be kept waiting 
from day to day till your planting days are 
over, or worst of all, you may plant poor seed. 
The dates of planting given throughout this 
book are for the latitude of New York. In 
Northern New England planting should be 
about three weeks later. All the middle western 
states can be figured the same as New York: but 
all states south of Pennsylvania may be figured 
twelve days in advance for every one hundred 
miles southward. 
This holds good for sowing out of doors or 
for transplanting out of doors. For starting 
seeds in your home, these times will do for the 
entire eastern states.
