POPPIES. 



A great advance has been made in recent years iii tlie development of the 

 Poppy, which has brought it into deserved popularity, and it may be safely said 

 that no other flower produces a more brilliant display of color during the 

 blooming period. Annual Poppies should be sown where they are to remain, 

 as they do not stand transplanting."
