VIOLETS, SWEET WILLIAMS, SPIREAS, YUCCAS, ETC. 
SWEET VIOLETS * 
Violets are great favorites and do well in the open ground. If given 

a sheltered place, they will usually begin to bloom before the snow is gone, SINGLE 
and continue bearing their lovely flowers for several months. The double VIOLETS 
varieties are not so vigorous in growth as the singles. , 
Price, 15 cts. each, postpaid, unless otherwise noted.
