—ii i ■ Seeds; they are the best. A dollar’s 
worth of C. & J, Surpassing Flower Seeds will produce piany times as many flowers as the same 
amount expended in plants. 
Any ordinary soil will grow beautiful flowers. Make it fine and mellow, plant at 
proper time, keep clear of weeds, and Nature “will do the rest.” 
Do not plant when ground is wet and soggy, or it may bake so hard as to prevent 
the little plants from coming through. 
Do not cover too deeply, very fine seeds should be merely pressed in with the hand ; see 
printed directions sent with every order. 
Do not allow plants to stand too thickly; weed out or transplant if necessary ; if crowded 
they cannot bloom satisfactorily. A home adorned with beautiful flowers is sure to be 
happy and prosperous. 
TranSDlcUltinS" Nearly all flowers are improved by transp 1 anting, except Sweet Peas and 
* Poppies which are usually sown where they are to grow. By starting them 
in Boxes, Hot Beds or Cold Frames, and transplanting, you escape danger of frost and secure the 
largest and finest flowers. ALWAYS ADDRESS:

NEW TUFTED or BEDDINQ PANSIES. 
New Tufted or Bedding Pansies* 
These are among the very choicest 
flowers offered this season; everyone 
should give them a liberal trial. The 
seed grows easily and produces strong 
vigorous plants which are en¬ 
tirely hardy and bloom on, from 
year to year. The flowers are over 
two inches across; delightfully 
fragrant and borne well up 
on strong stems. The colors 
are rich and beautiful in¬ 
cluding hundreds of different 
shades and markings of pink, 
white, blue, yellow, violet, 
purple, etc., in endless com¬ 
binations. If the flowers are 
kept picked off before going 
to seed new crops of lovely blossoms 
will be produced the whole season, 
from April to November; they are fine 
for cutting, as the flowers are very 
durable and retain their beauty a 
long time; as they are entirely hardy 
and bloom continuously every year, 
they are especially valuable for bed¬ 
ding in the garden and lawn. We 
know of nothing that will give better 
satisfaction. Pkt.,10() seeds,
