COSMOS. This is one of our most useful and 

 beautiful autumn flowers. To get it in bloom 

 early, the seed should be sown in May in the 

 open ground where the plants are desired to 

 bloom, and the seedlings allowed to grow 

 and flower without being transplanted 

 Farquhar's Early Mixed IIvrrius. The 

 earliest strain of Cosmos in existence. If 

 sown in May in the open ground, it usu- 

 ally blooms by the first or second week in 

 July. The colors include pure white, shades 

 of lilac, rose, and crimson. Our seed is 

 grown in Massachusetts and has frequently 

 ripened and been gathered before ordinary 

 Cosmos had begun to bloom; 4 ft. Oz., i .25
