G ardening and civilization have advanced hand in hand. The mists of ages obscure the origin of cultivated gardens, but they 
have always been associated with people of enlightenment and refinement. 
That the appreciation of the moral, pleasurable, healthful and instructive value of gardening has never been so pro- 
Tinunced as at the present time is indicated by the rapid development of the children’s garden idea throughout civilized coun¬ 
tries ' In many places it is being made a feature in the educational system, and “School Gardens are being established it 
heinp- found that these awaken an early interest in the child, soon quickening to enthusiasm and love for aesthetic and truittul 
nature, which, in addition to the physical benefits enlarges the scope of observation, broadens lines of thought and develops a 
knowledge of the principles of plant life, beauty and industry. ^ . _ 
To meet the‘growing demand for suitable seeds, etc., at a moderate price for children s gardens, at home or at school, 
we have selected and offer as among the best kinds for the purpose undermentioned.
