riease tvh mo the bi-.-t mLllioJ of 

 keeping bamboo roots during winter. 

 Also, why do the leaves of geranium 

 plants turn brown after being bedded 

 out in rather light soil, with a good 

 suiiplv of water and sunshine? 



A. B. C. 



There are a good many species of bam- 

 boo, but I presume that the inquiry re- 

 fers to those that are hardy. After the 

 first hard frosts a covering of six inches 

 of tan bark among the old canes and for 

 a foot or more round the stool will usu- 

 ally protect all the hardy bamboos. If 

 you cannot get tan bark, then stable lit- 

 ter or spent hops will do, but don't ap- 

 ply it until there has been a little frost 

 in the ground. 



There may be several reasons for the 

 leaves of geraniums turning yellow. If 

 geraniums have been kept in a close, 

 shady house, then suddenly put out in a 

 bed in the hot sun, they are sure to 

 lose some leaves. Although one of the 

 commonest and most easily managed 

 plants the geranium has some peculiar- 

 ities. Did you ever notice that if you 

 left a flat "full in the shed for forty- 

 eight hours the leaves will turn yellow? 

 If grown in a light house subject to the 

 full sun and carefully watered when put 

 out there will be no leaves turning 

 brown. Perhaps the fault is a combina- 

 tion of both poor watering and the plants 

 grown in a shaded house. If they are 

 healthy plants they will soon get" over 

 this by one or two waterings and the 

 ground stirred the ne.xt day. Pinch off 

 all dead leaves and flowers until you see 

 a good, healthy growth starting.
