ZINNIAS. 



■Youth and Old Age.) 

 The Zinnia is one of the most brilliant, 

 showy and satisfactory of annuals, and has 

 long been a general favorite. The seed can 

 be sown early in the hotbed or light win- 

 dow and transplanted, or sown later in the 

 open ground. They come into flower early 

 in the summer and keep on blooming until 

 hard frost.
