In My Garden A deal has been achieved of late

years in the production of dwarf varieties of plants. The dwarf Michaelmas Daisies, which can be used aI an edging, are now to be had in great variety of shade and are a real addition to the garden. A singularly pleasing dwarf is the Sweet William named " Indian Carpet." The flowers, in many shades of crimson and scarlet, as well as " eyed " varieties, come out at a singularly level height of some five inches, and have delighted some gardeners.
