"I will write them on this paper," said Uncle Robert, "and when you see how they look you can write them on your plan."
"Oh, yes," said Susie, "that will be the nicest way."

"I can hardly wait," cried Susie, dancing along the walk. "Come, uncle, let's plant what seeds we have now."
"Do we need to do anything to the ground," asked Uncle Robert, "before the seeds are put in?"
