Hints, 10 Gardeners By Harry Joy
 Flower Expert Ferry Seed Station
Preseason Planting

IF you are anxious to get busy \ with your outdoor flower plant ing you may safely SOW the seeds of many of the popular annuals without waiting for that proverbial date "when all danger of frost is past"
 Certain flower seeds withstand frost and freezing weather without damage. The seedlings they pro. duce, moreover, will not succumb to late cold spells.
 Armed with list of the depend. ably hardy annual flower seeds the anxious gardener may logically plant early to obtain earlier bloom from his annuals.
 Following are annuals which may be planted BEFORE danger of frost is past: Alyssum, Bachelor Button, Clarkia, Calendula, Califor- mia Poppy, Cheiranthus, Snow-on- the-Mountain, Larkspur, Pansy, Pe- tunia, Annual Poppy, Portulaca and Snapdragon. CheiranthuS is a hardy biennial which may be treated as an annual.
 In cool weather planting 1t is best to broadcast the seed and rake 1t in. If the soil is not too moist 1t is advisable to press the seed into the soil.
 This off-season planting may also be done in fall, of course. Seed should be sown outdoors after warm weather is definitely over. and when the first freezing weather seems imminent.
 Certain annuals - particularly Clarkia, Larkspur and Annual Poppy-are not only earlier flower ing but also make better plants when sown in early spring or fall. The cold.weather planting is more in keeping with their natural mode of growth.
 Seedlings produced by seed sown outdoors in cool weather are hardi. CT than those grown from seed planted indoors in flats or those sown outdoors in the regular man. ner, so long as the choice of 1low- CTS is restricted to the above list of annuala
