PANSIES 
PANSIES are so well known they need no description.. For successful germination and lovely 
blooms, prepare the soil carefully. Plant seed during the fall months in a semi-shady location, 
in well moistened, finely pulverized soil, enriched with a slight amount of barn-yard fertilizer 
or bone meal. 
Cover seed lightly and firm soil. 
Keep beds moist but not soaking wet until 
plants are up. Transplant to 8 to 12 inches apart. Water young plants very sparingly to avoid 
damping off, but do not allow soil to dry out at any time. Annual.
