SWEET PEAS. 



It is unneces>ary to say much about these lovely, fragrant 

 flowers, their universal favoritism being well established. The 

 seed should be sown as early as the grou7id can be worked in , 

 the spring, to enable the vines to get a good strong growth y 

 before the warm weather comes. As the flowers come into full 

 bloom or fade they should be cut oft, for, if the pods are ' 

 allowed to form, the plants will stop blooming. Full instruc- 

 tions for planting, together with many useful hints, will be found 

 in the new book AW About Sweet Peas. Price 15 cts., postpaid. v ^ 

 A selection of the 20 Finest Standard Sweet Peas, also a list 

 of the Cream of the New Varieties, will be found offered with 

 the novelties on pages 6 to 10. per per
