I urgently request a trial order from those who have not sown my seeds and am confident that they will become regular customers. 



A WORD OF CAUTION— In sowing all flower seeds be careful not to sow "too deep." Seed of the size of Asters, Balsams, 

 etc., should not be sown over an eighth of an inch deep. While smaller seed such as Petunias. Portulaca. Pansy, etc.. should barely 

 be covered. Larger seed such as Sweet Peas, Cannas, Nasturtiums, etc., can be safely planted about two inches deep. After 

 sowing, all flower seed should be covered with finely sifted dirt, then pressed down firmly and carefully.
