Marigolds 
BEST WAY TO GROW MARIGOLDS: Sow May 15th or when ground 
is sufficiently warmed. Then sow in a warm sunny spot and cover seed 
very lightly. You can start in boxes indoors about April 20th. Tall 
varieties should be planted at least 15 to 18 inches apart each way. 
Low growing sorts take half as much space. When plants are 4 to 6 
inches in height cover the soil with PEAT MOSS. Keep mulch 1 inch 
deep over your Marigold bed all summer. You will have MORE MARI¬ 
GOLDS.
