Petunia. 
This is a flower for everybody. Few high priced and 
rare plants can begin to compare with the Petunia for 
beauty, and not half a dozen other flowers on our list are as 
showy in beds or masses. We once saw in front of a hum¬ 
ble western cabin a great raised bed of Petunias, a perfect 
cloud of brilliant blossoms that could be seen far over the 
prairie, gleaming in purple and white, like some great star, 
and all this wealth of beauty was the product of a ten-eent 
paper of seed. The smallest yard and the finest park is not 
complete without these butterflies among flowers, that mind 
neither heat, drouth or rain, but bloom in profusion until the 
winter is almost upon us. The seed is best started in the 
house, and the young plants transplanted to open ground- 
one foot apart, but if the soil is made very fine, seed can be 
sown in open ground and covered lightly. After they are 
once up they are no trouble to grow. Per pkt.
