MISS EMMA V. WHITE, 



PANSY. 



Nothing can ever displace the Pansy 

 from the favor which it everywhere and 

 with every one receives. It endures the 

 hardest winters and greets us in the 

 early spring almost before the snow is 

 gone, and is the last to succumb to the 

 frosts of autumn. The seed may be 

 :-own in the hotbed or open ground. 

 Many sow the seed in the fall, but if 

 sown in the spring, get it into the 

 ground very early, as the spring rains 

 w illproducethelargestandmost satis- 

 factory blossoms. The flowers will be 

 smaller during the heat and drouth of 

 summer, but upon the approach of 

 cooler weather and fall rains, they will 

 again increase in size and beauty. 

 Youngplants give the largest flowers ; 

 lience, old, worn-out plants should be 

 replaced.
