General Cultural Directions.—Sowing the Seed.—Most failures in flower culture come from improper treatment of the seeds and young plants. We urge every purchaser of our seed to carefully study the cultural directions printed on each package. In sowing fine flower seeds, the common mistake is to cover them too deeply. The great point is to sow them in freshly worked soil, not wet enough to be sticky, but fine, moist and mellow. After sowing the seed, pat the soil down firm ; nothing more will be required. All choice seeds and bulbs, to do their best, must have proper cultivation. FERTILIZER FOR FLOWERING PLANTS.—Fine Bone Flour—a valuable fertilizer for both potted and bedded plants. Can be easily applied at any time and will quickly show its excellence. Price, per sack of 25 tt)5., $ ;
