displaying this odd characteristic. Sow seed in

STOCKS 
The Stocks represent all the desirable qualities 
of a flower. The plants have good growing 
habits, fine dull glossy leaves. The flowers appear 
on long, stiff stalks like small rosettes; are ex¬ 
ceedingly fragrant and range through a most 
complete scale of all the soft distinct shades, 
such as white, yellow, flesh pink, rose pink, 
crimson, light blue and dark blue. The spicy 
fragrance of Stocks perfumes the whole garden 
and the abundance of beautiful bloom adds 
greatly to its attraction. If you haven’t been 
growing Stocks start this year and we believe 
you will not again be without them. 
DWARF GERMAN 10 WEEK STOCK 
This is the earliest strain to come in bloom and 
while the plants are not so tall or flower stalks 
quite so long as Giant Perfection, they are very 
beautiful and desirable. We advise planting both 
varieties and you will have abundant bloom 
from early summer until freezing weather.

SWEET PEAS 
Perhaps no flower grown in this section gives 
greater satisfaction than the Sweet Pea. Our 
soil and climate conditions seem to be ideal 
and Sweet Peas flourish here and reach their 
greatest perfection and beauty. Sow as early in. 
spring as possible, the earlier the better. Soil 
should be very rich and peas planted deep, 4 to 
5 inches; the ground should be well mulched 
with well rotted manure. Sweet peas will bloom 
from spring until snow flies if properly handled. 
Sow 1 ounce to 10 feet of row—must be sown 
thick to do well and look well.
