Annual Flower Seeds 



Bolgiano's Choice Flower Seeds 



Food Will Win the War I This slocran. we think, is a familiar one everywhere, and, having this 

 fact in mind, decided it would \ye only right for us to emphasize as strongly as possible the planting of 

 vegetable seeds, and instead of War Gardens the cry now should be Peace Gardens, so as to release non- 

 perishable food for supplying to the millions who are in danger of starving. However, with the return of 

 "our boyt" fi»jm abroad what could give them more plea.sure than a walk through the garden with grand- 

 mother. niDthcr, sister or sweetheart, pointing out this fine Aster, that briliant yellow Calendula, dazzling 

 scarlet OI diola. or enormous blossoms of Zinnias. 

 • Produce all the food you possibly can, but leave just a small strip in the garden for a few annual 

 flowers, which are so easily grown and are so quick to reward one's efforts with an abundance of bloom.
