Sweet Mignonette needs no introduction; it is a universal favorite; of the easiest culture, doing equally well in the garden, greenhouse or window box. It grows most rapidly and produces the finest and largest spikes of bloom during the cool, moist weather of the spring and fall months; and can be grown easily in a cool room in winter, if seed is sown in pots early in the fall. The flowers are richer in fragrance when grown in light, sandy soils, but the plants do not grow as vigorously nor are the spikes of bloom as large as when grown in rich, heavy soils. If it is desired to transplant the young seedlings, it should be done when they are quite small, the weather cool and cloudy, and the ground quite moist. Faxon's Improved Sweet Mignonette is splendid; being deliciousiy fragrant, and pro= ducing the very largest and handsomest spikes of flowers. Seed should be sown thinly in shallow drills early in the spring when the trees are starting out in leaf; and when the young plants are well started they should be thinned out or transplanted to stand six inches apart in the row. A second planting should be made about the first of August, which will furnish the largest and finest flowers of the season during the cool, fall months. Faxon's Improved Sweet ilignonette will grow and thrive anywhere. Faxon's Improved SWEET MIGNONETTE SEED. Price, Per Large Packet, 10 Cents ; 3 Packets for 25 Cents; 10 Packets for 75 Cents; 1=4 Ounce, 25 Cents ; Ounce, 75 Cents. 13
