 annual garden. The children especial- 

 ly enjoy its bright colors and sweet 

 fragrance. Mixed, all colors, some with

 green foliage. Pkt., 2 cts. 



Newman, 111., Mar. 17, 1896.— "I received your neat lit- 

 tle catalogue, and although I had placed my seed order in 

 other hands when I saw how cheap your seeds were, I 

 thought I could afford to get just a few more. I am in- 

 deed a lover of flowers, and always plant liberally in my 

 yard and garden." Lucy L. White.
