succession of blossoms may 
be obtained during the entire 
season. The Old Fashioned 
Garden is their proper metier 
but they fit in anywhere. 
Great strides have been made 
in their cnUivation since our 
grandmother's day, and the

wonderfully besutiful in th:.- 
h.inds of skilled horticultur- 
ists.
