THE PANSY INDUSTRY.
IL 10 Profitable For Market Plants and
For Seeds.

II 10 Profitable For Market Plants and
For Seeds.
In an ounce of pansy seed there are
about 10000 seeds. They sell In this
country from 50 to $40 an ounce. With
an ounce of seed one should raise ut
least 1000 plants. They are used for
cut flowers in winter. for vases in the
spring, also for bedding. In the Gene
terics of Greater New York they are
planted by the millions, and almost
every house where there is II garden
shows some also. The pansy industry
Is not only profitable for market plants,
but also for the seeds There are import
ell to this country at least 800 pounds
every year. Uncle Sam buys at least
fifty pounds. Instead OF buying these
seeds abroad they could be raised in
this country in places where the climate
is moderate and the ground fertile.
Time of Seed Sowing.
Pansies for business are sown around
New York from July 10 to Aug. -.
They can be Sown later, but here they
want the quantity. not the quality. a
plant in full growth with from six to
ten flowers is what the people like;
SO long as they show flowers they sell.
After the plants are big enough to
transplant from September to October
they are planted in rows in frames or
outdoors. Those planted in frames are
protected in the cold weather with hot
bed sash 3 by g. The plants commence
to sell at Easter, and sales last till Me
mortal day, but the bulk of the bust
ness IS from the list of April to May
10. The plants are sold in boxes call
ed flats, about five inches deep. There
are fifty plants in Il fiat. The plants
are also sold in baskets, about Il dozen
in each. The flats are sold to florists,
the baskets to retail customers. The
boxes from which flats are made are
bought in summer and packed up in
the yard, and in winter, when the
work Is slack, then the panSy man
makes his flats.

men in summer. They get from $50
month and their board. Last summer
he gathered at least thirty pounds OF
pansy seeds. That shows pansy seeds
can be raised in this country. If you
have good crop you can raise twenty
pounds of pansy seeds on an acre. At
So per ounce it wouldn't be so bad
