ANNUAL AND PERENNIAL STOCK. 
Culture— Sow early in March in pans near the glass, or in a frame filled with vegetable loam with one-sixth river sand, to within four inches of the lights, so that the young 
plants may be near the glass and not drawn up weakly ; level the soil nicely, and slightly sprinkle with water, then scatter the seeds evenly about four to the square 
inch ; another slight sprinkling, and then cover the seeds with about finch of finely-sifted compost. Keep the lights-closed and shaded from the sun for a few days, 
gradually giving the plants air until the end of April, when they can be transplanted into pots or groups in the open border ; a mixture of good old ltme rub ns is 
beneficial to the soil in which Stocks are planted out. Intermediate, East Lothian, Brompton, Imperial, and Queen Stock may be treated precisely as given above, 
with the exception of the time of sowing, which should be from July to September. Stocks may be transplanted several times in the earlier stages ol their growth if 
dwarf, compact habit is required.
