THE FLOWER GARDEN. Hardy Poppies.
Botanists have found plants strange rto-the locality on the sites of building

estates. Seeds, deep ln| the earth for years, must have been hi ought near the surface In the excavatl ons,' and they must have had the time for growing on the neglected sites.' Th'i lesson Is that seeds cannot germinate .without oxygen,' and;gardeners know that seeds cannot'
healthily germinate without suflaclent oxygen. The chief parti of the air are oxygen and nitrogen, 1 'he smallerl the seed Is, the more shallo^fly it -ought to heisbwn, The sowing,depth may vary from foilr iriches witR bread beans, three Inches with'peaS, to half an Inch With popples,
and.lahnual species. Oriental and Iceland popples are perennials. The scarlet, Oriental poppy Is the Iregest-flowered, hardy member of the fanlly. The Ice

over ; annuals Is that thsy. make bigger blooms than the annual varieties of the same plant.
