GIANT PANSIES. Pansies always have been a great specialty 
with us and we are justly proud of the quality and trueness 
to type of our strains. They succeed best in rich, well- 
drained soil in a sunny position and produce finest flowers 
in the cool, early days of spring. Keep flowers picked during 
the summer, plants pinched back, and you will get a nice 
lot of flowers in the fall.

And weariness. 
A quaint old room with rafters bare, 
A low white bed, a rocking chair, 
A book, a stalk where a flower had been, 
An open door, and all within— 
Peace and content.
