School Garden, Union School, Tubao, Phillippines. 
This garden produces flowers and vegetables every month in the year. 
Our Four Page Order Blanks 
We have never been satisfied with the simple order blank as generally 
furnished by those supplying penny-packet seeds, as they contain no 
information for the child, other than the list of varieties to select from. 
We are now issuing a four page illustrated folder, which contains, in 
addition to a very complete list of varieties, some interesting information 
and suggestions to both children and parents, which will, we believe, be 
an added influence to encourage greater interest in the work. 
These order blanks will be supplied free of charge, one to every boy 
and girl in your schools who is interested. The only conditions being 
that each teacher shall explain the school-garden movement to her pupils, 
telling them what other schools are doing, and the benefits to be derived 
from an educational standpoint. Have each teacher report how many 
will be required for her room, and order all together making your requisi¬ 
tion on the enclosed post-card. 
Primary Order Blanks 
Some educators think it not advisable to permit the beginners, in 
lower grades, to have so extended a list of varieties to select from, as they 
are liable to choose varieties that are more difficult to grow, resulting in 
failure and disappointment. We believe this objection is well taken, and 
have therefore prepared a special Primary Illustrated Order-Blank, in 
which we list only varieties of the easiest culture, also a list of vegetables, 
arranged in collections in which the root, top, fruit, and seed, respectively 
are used for food; a classification that will be of interest to the children. 
It is of course optional with teachers,'which style of order blanks they 
use for their beginners.
