Visit of the Normal School Girls. sweet pea. phlox, portulaca. calendula, calliopsis, cosmos, dian-thus. mignonette, and coreopsis, all of which are pretty sure toproduce beautiful flowers whose blossoming period is long. A gentleman who learned of this gift said: •• Well, there,that is a distribution of seeds that has amounted to something.The seeds have fallen into the right hands. I have been skepti-cal for years in regard to the free distribution of seeds fromWashington: but if it is to take this form I have nothing butcommendation for it.* GEORGE PUTNAM SCHOOL GARDEN. 241 Not onlv were the seeds given to the children who 1im<1 gardensat school, but to those who had them at home, or to those whomanifested interest enough in gardening to make a garden athome for the first time. This apparently insignificant gift of afew seeds furnished a motive far-reaching in its nature. In the first place the seeds were from a celebrated place.Washington, the Capital of the United States.
