This Is one of the most brilliant of annuals, and has long been 
a general favorite. The flowers are large, finely formed, 
and in great variety of color. Seed sown early under glass 
will commence flowering in June, and continue the whole 
season. They require little attention, and any common 
gardon loam. Half-hardy annuals. 
Elliott’s Finest Mixtures 
of Grass Seeds for 
Hay and Permanent 
Pasture. 
The importance to the 
farmer of a good selection 
and proper mixture of 
grass seeds for the various 
purposes of cultivation 
for mowing, for soi'ing 
for permanent 
etc., cannot be overesti¬ 
mated. We prepare si>eci a 1 
mixtures containing only 
the most suitable grasses 
for permanent pastures 
and meadow lands, such 
us Orchard Grass, Mea¬ 
dow Foxtail, Sheen’s Fes¬ 
cue, R. I. Rent Meadow 
Fescue, English Rye Grass, 
Perennial Sweet Vernal 
and Red-Top in such pro¬ 
portions as will jnsure the 
most satisfactory results, 
producing the heaviest 
possible crops of hay, far 
superior to seeding with 
Timo thy and Clover alone; 
producing far heavier 
crops; for permanent pas¬ 
tures allowing of the clos¬ 
es t gra sing wlthou t in] u ry. 
On ordinary fertile soil 
sow three bushels per acre, 
but where the soil is poor, 
larger quantities are re¬ 
quired. 
Price, per bushel, $*2.50. 
With the above should 
be down 10 lbs. of mixed 
clovers per acre (which 
cost about 15 cts. per lb). 
On account of the greater 
weight of clovers they 
should be sown separately 
and only In the spring as 
they are inclined to winter 
kill unless well established.
