FERTILIZER: 

SOIL: Light, rich loamy soil is best suited for flowers. To improve heavy soils and con- 
serve moisture, add peat moss and sand liberally. Spade the soil deeply and make the 
top 3 or 4 inches as fine and loose and smooth as possible. Well rotted manure worked 
into the soil before planting may be used if desired. 
SOWING THE SEED: Fine seeds should be planted on the surface and a very little soil 
sprinkled over them, after which they should be pressed firmly to the soil with a board. 
Medium size seeds may be planted twice the depth of their diameter, or from 14 to 
inch deep. Larger seeds, such as sweet peas, should go deeper. 
WATERING: After planting, water with a fine spray to avoid washing the soil from the 
seed. Keep top soil damp—not wet—until germination. When large enough, thin plants 
from 2 to 12 inches, depending upon the variety. Water plants thoroughly ONLY at 
intervals—not daily. Watering depends upon the time of year, texture of soil and nature 
We recommend the use of an all-purpose commercial fertilizer as a top 
dressing after the plants are up, to stimulate and properly feed the plants.
