Sow Seeds of'She Perennials Sr* the Autumn for Best Results 
For the .seed-bed select a sheltered spot in the garden where it is warm but not too sunny. Raise the surface four 
or five inches above the general level, and work tbe soil up fine and mellow. Draw very shallow lines across the bed 
about three inches apart, and then sow the seed, not too thick, keeping the varieties together. Cover Ihe seed very 
shallow, and then pack the bed down firmly with a board or hack of spade. Spread a piece of old muslin over the top 
and water thoroughly. As soon as the seed germinates remove the muslin, and when the plants are two to three inches 
high transplant them to their permanent quarters. Perennials can bo sown in July or August and transplanted in Sep¬ 
tember to be well rooted before ground is frozen up. Or sown in October or November Iho seed will lie dormant and 
will be up early In the Spring ready for tnThsplanting.and will make fine, largo, blooming plants the same season. 
Besides their marvelous beauty, the Perennials have the added virtue of requiring little attention. Once establish¬ 
ed they are permanent for years, many of them improving as the years pass on. Even when utterly neglected they per¬ 
sist in blooming, but they respond splendidly to cultivation and fertilization.
