Probably no flower has such an assortment of bright shades, tints and. colors, 
.and no bedding plant is more effective for a brilliant show than the Zinnia. 
It blooms from early summer until hard frost finally cuts it down. This old- 
fashioned bedding plant, whose popularity is being increased every year by the 
addition of many new and remarkably beautiful varieties and colors, deserves 
a most prominent place in your garden. Sow the seed early in the spring. Give 
the plants plenty of room. Feed liberally with liquid sheep or cattle manure.
