Florence B. Brown, Sprlngvllle, Ky., writes:— I was very much 
pleased with the Seeds yon sent me last spring; nothing, 
however, gave me so much pleasure as my small bed of Sweet 
Alyssum; wherever I went among my flower beds, all through 
the summer until late in the fall, I was greeted with a mass 
of dainty white blooms and delicate odor of Sweet Alyssum. I 
think it should be called “ Sweet Faithful.”
