Pansies. < »ur sele ti m of this well-known flower is, we believe, the best

 sown in January and February in the greenhouse or in boxes in the house. 

 Care should be taken to spray the young plants daily to keep off vermin.

 for pansies the soil cannot be too rich, and your trouble is amply repaid by 

 the beauty of the flowers. Pansies will stand winter as far north as New

 September and October. Pkt., 3c
