Stevens Suggests Method for Pansies, Asters and Spring Flowers "If you are planning to use how grown flowers for your parties or fo. your Sunday center pieces in the spring, this is the month in which you should plant the seeds indoors," said Prof. W. C. Stephens of the dept of botany. "Seeds planted in boxes now," continued Professor Stephen Hoehling, who will be speaking by the time the heavy frost are over and will be just that mucin of advance in the seeds planted in the ground." Pansies, Sweet Elysium, Asters, Zonia and Agoratum seeds can all be planted to advantage in boxes and require little care. A good soil composition for such plants consists of one third garden soil, one third sand and one third thoroughly rotted manure. the box, which should be about three inches high and contain about two inches of compost, has been marked on the bottom of the box to promote good air circulation. A glass should be placed over the top of the box after the seeds have been planted just below the surface of the soil, to promote germination, but should be removed as soon as they start to grow. In watering, the box should be placed in a tub of water and allowed to draw up the water from the soil by means of the seeds so near the surface. When the plants are ready to be transplanted, they should be transplanted from a moist soil to a moist soil. Send the Daily Kansan home.
