CALENDULA, FAvorRITe. 

Carrie E. Roberts. Weisburg, Ind.—We had a lovely garden last year in spite of 
the long drought. Everything did finely. Everybody seems to admire our garden 
and lots of people get their plants here. ~ 
Edw. Smith. Oak Valley, Kans.—I like the arrangement of your seed book this 
year very much better than formerly, as it is more convenient to find what you 
want. Neither do I like the name of ‘‘Novelties’ for vegetables of sterling merit.
