Begonias in 4 or o-inch pols may be 

 plunged to advantage in mild hotbeds, 

 but of course there should be five or 

 six inches of ashes or soil over the 

 manure. In such a position the be- 

 sonias are readily hardened off with- 

 out any check. They should remain 

 until the middle of June, and thus es- 

 cape the low temperature which are 

 common in many parts of the country 

 late in May or the first week in June. 

 It is best to give the bedding begonias 

 that are pot bound a shift, using rich 

 soil. This will put them into good 

 condition before planting time. Tuber- 

 ous rooted begonias which are to be 

 bedded out should have plenty of room 

 or they will not thrive. 



If you have a number of vinca cut- 

 tings which have been rooted during 

 the winter this is a good time to plant 

 them in the field. They should have 

 reasonably rich ground and be kept 

 well cultivated. With this treatment 

 they will be in good condition when 

 fall comes to be potted up.

May 1.5. 1920. 

 Dear Sir: 



The following named gladiolus has 

 been offered for registration by 

 Vaughan's Seed Store, Chicago, 111. If 

 no objection is filed with the commit- 

 tee before June 1st the registration 

 becomes complete. The following is 

 the introducer's description: 



"Name: Mrs. H. A. Caesar. 



"Description: This seedling gladio- 

 lus is a cross of America with Sun- 

 beam. Its habit of growth is more ro- 

 bust than America, and with same 

 flowering season. The length of spike 

 is about the same but it produces 

 more buds, frequently showing five to 

 eight open flowers, well placed on the 

 spike. The color is a beautiful laven- 

 der, shading to lilac, with a yellow 

 dash in the lower petals. Admirers 

 have called it Orchid Beauty. The 

 spikes are uniformly straight and up- 

 right, with no crooked stems."
