Schell’s Exquisite 
Exhibition Mixture Pansies 
This, our best mixture, is incomparable. The 
flowers we illustrate here are reduced to only 
half their real size, which averages 4 inches in 
diameter, but give an idea of some of the gor¬ 
geous color shadings, many of them so richly 
marked, margined, and shaded as to be too 
beautiful for words to describe. These giant 
flowers include the richest shades of lavender 
and gold, red with silver rim, garnet, canary- 
yellow, purple, rose, bronze, blue, lavender, 
black, white and red. Be sure to include this 
Mixture in your order. Pkt. 25 cts.; 5 pkts. $1; 
V^oz. $2.75; V2 oz * $5; oz. $10.

How to Grow Pansies. In sowing the seed, never 
allow your seed-beds to become dry, for any dryness 
after the seeds sprout is absolutely fatal. When 
your seedlings or young plants are ready to set out 
or transplant to where you want them to bloom, dig 
your plant-bed to a depth of xo to 12 inches, pul¬ 
verize thoroughly to a depth of 6 to 8 inches, mix in 
2 to 3 inches of well-rotted manure, or Wizard Brand 
Sheep Manure. Cultivate often; too little cultivation is 
the cause of most failures in obtaining first-class results. 
Good drainage is necessary; set your plants deep in rows 
8 inches apart so you can cultivate, and set 
plants 6 inches apart in the rows.
