flowers imaginable, especially adapted to bor¬ 
dering beds of taller flowers and those of a 
heavier growth. The seeds germinate quickly 
and come into bloom In a few weeks from sow¬ 
ing, The flowers completely obscure the foli¬ 
age, making the plant a pyramid of the most 
delicate and charming blooms.

Hardy, Fragrant Violets 
Here’s one answer to 
that question, “What will 
grow and thrive in the 
shade?” 
These hardy violets 
grow In shade, partial 
shade, or out In the 
open, but do best in par¬ 
tial shade. The plants 
increase in size or num¬ 
ber by sending out short 
runners which take root 
and make new plants around the original one, 
soon forming quite a nice clump. When the 
clumps get too large or too thick they may be 
taken up, pulled apart and reset. 
The blossoms are of violet color, often deli¬ 
cately fragrant. I sell these violets in clumps. 
Each clump can be easily separated to make 
several dozen plants. Or, you can separate 
the clump into a few smaller clumps for 
quicker results.

“That ain't the way I heerd it” 
Way I heerd it, feller sees 'nother feller 
paintin’ his house and sez, “Whatcha spendin’ 
all that money on yer house fer? Don’tcha 
know you could take a lotta Joy rides fer 
the costivity of that paint?’’ 
T’other feller sez, “Little beds of flowers, 
little drops of paint, make a place a home, 
outa one that ain’t.’’ 
(And Snch Funny Booking Bulbs) 
Ranunculus Bulbs “fighfe; 
effect than a bed of Ranunculus. The flow¬ 
ers are wonderfully good for cutting also. 
Plants about a foot high with flowers two 
inches or so In diameter, many of them 
double, in a variety of bright and pleasing 
colors. 
The bulbs are even funnier In appearance 
than those of the Anemone. They look like 
dried up bird’s feet and of no value whatever. 
You’d swear they would not grow, much less 
produce beautiful flowers. But Just plant them 
out in the garden any time after the ground 
warms up and see them do their stuff. Set 
these little “crowfoot” bulbs about two inches 
deep, pressing them firmly In the soil. (The 
“claws” are bottom of bulb.) Thrive best in 
partial shade. 
Space the bulbs 5 or 6 inches apart. Just 
cultivate and water moderately. Wamingl 
Too much water may cause failure. Keep soil 
moist but not very wet. Easy to grow. In 
fall take up the bulbs, store In dry place 
away from frost. Replant the next spring. 
TBCOBOTB GIANTS. Largest and most mag¬ 
nificent strain. Award of Merit, Mass. Hort. 
Society 1933 and 1934. 10 for 50c; 25 for 
$1.00;’ 100 for $3.60, prepaid. 
Anemone Bulbs 
Plant the bulbs any 
time from early 
spring to middle of June. The plants grow 
8 to 12 inches high. Several flower stems 
come from a small bulb. Flowers are bright 
colors In mixture, some single, a few double, 
and several inches In diameter. For best 
results, plant in partial shade. 
The Anemone bulbs are very peculiar. Dry. 
hard and apparently lifeless, they respond 
quickly when planted two inches deep In any 
good garden soil. Set the bulbs 4 to 6 Inches 
apart. In fall store in dry place. Plant in^ 
spring. 
MONABCH DE CABN. Very favorite strain. 
Immense brilliant flowers. 10 for 40c: 25 
for 90c; lOO for $3.00, prepaid. 
Anemones from queer bulbs spring.

When cut, 'tis days before they’re spent.
