STRAWFLOWER 
Strawflowers are in great demand not only for the fine 
effect they give in beds and borders, and as cutflowers, but 
they are chiefly prized for their availability for decorative 
purposes during winter months. The dried flowers lend them¬ 
selves admirably for table adornment or ornamental baskets. 
If wanted for this purpose cut the flowers early in the morn¬ 
ing while the dew is still on them and hang their heads 
down in a cool, shady and airy place until thoroughly dry. 
Flowers must be cut before they are fully opened. Sow the 
seed outdoors and cover with V* inch of soil. Seeds germinate 
in about 2 weeks after planting; thin to 10 inches apart.

SWEET PEA 
The soothing scent of the Sweet Pea takes us back to childhood days and mother’s garden and 
while the newer varieties are larger and more orchid like, they still retain nature’s sweetest per¬ 
fume. Good old standby whose generosity cannot be equalled. A row of the charming varie¬ 
ties we offer cannot be duplicated. We have them in - 
solid colors or in our own true mixture. All we ask is 
to try our Sweet Peas or any of our fresh seeds and 
be convinced there are no better grown. It is our ex¬ 
perience to plant the Spencer Sweet Peas to the exclu¬ 
sion of all others as the rich returns make them by far 
the cheapest seed to sow. 
Plant seed as early as the ground can be worked. Water 
or irrigate if dry and pick the blossoms regularly and you 
will enjoy bouquets until hard frosts come.
