WILD GARDEN ANNUALS 
This is a mixture of easily grown annuals, which 
thrive with little care; they are not wild flowers nor 
weedy. There is a great opportunity to use them in 
your vicinity. They may be sown along fences, em¬ 
bankments or rough ground. The cheery flowers will 
change an unsightly corner into a gay, beautiful place. 
Think of the pleasure you will be giving passers-by if 
you buy a pound and sow it thickly on unsightly road 
embankments or similar places. It is a little thing to 
do, but will improve your locality, make it a better 
place to live. Try it this Summer.
