others. As a rule, the broad-follaged. 

 strong growing kinds are best adapted 

 to it. Mrs. Lawson and Winsor are 

 notable examples; in fact, we would 

 not attempt to grow them any other 

 way. 



Some Considerations. 



The greatest objection offered to in- 

 door culture is the fact that the .lune 

 cut is lost. ■ However, at this time 

 carnations bring very low prices, and 

 after all the problem is how to make 

 each square foot of bench surface pro- 

 duce the most money. If we can make 

 the returns through the fall and 

 winter more than cover the loss during 

 the summer by indoor culture we are 

 foolish not to adopt it. 



It is not urged that this method is 

 an easy way to success in carnation 

 growing. It certainly will not help 

 that grower who is used to letting the 

 plants take care of themselves. A lit- 

 tle neglect is far more disastrous to 

 indoor stock than to plants in the field. 



Worth Trying. 



I should not advise anyone to change 

 their whole plant immediately from 

 one method to the other, but first try 

 a house or at least a bench, a:id prove 

 for yourself which way is the better 

 under your conditions. Some of the 

 largest and best growers in the coun- 

 try practice indoor culture exclusively, 

 and many others in part of their plant, 

 and they certainly would . not do so 

 if it did not pay them. When any 

 new method of doing things is taken 

 up by the leaders In the trade, we 

 owe it to the success of our business 

 to at least see for ourselves whether 

 there is anything in it; otherwise, we 

 shall soon be bringing up the tail of 

 the procession.
