Sage 



HERBS— Sweet, Pot and Medicinal 



Every garden should contain a few herbs, as they are useful in many 

 ways and arouse delightful memories. They can be grown as edgings 

 to walks, and their fragrance will be distributed by the brushing of 

 clothing against the plants while passing. 



Culture. — Herbs delight in a rich, mellow soil. Sow seeds early in 

 Spring in shallow drills, 1 foot apart; when up a few inches thin out to 

 proper distances, or transplant. They should be cut on a dry day 

 just before they come into full blossom, tied in bunches and hung up or 

 spread thinly on a floor where they can dry quickly. Those marked 

 with an asterisk (*) are perennial.
