bone meal on your roiis benches appl.v 

 it in the fall and early winter. Al 

 though it is a first-class plant food, it 

 is not very rapid in action, particu- 

 larly if you use the coarser grades, 

 and the roses will not get as much 

 benefit from it as they should if it is 

 applied too late. It is a good plan to 

 put it on just before you apply a 

 mulch, as it will mix well with the 

 manure and will be ready for the root- 

 lets when they need it. 



It is not too soon to begin using 

 liquid manure in early planted rose 

 houses W'here heavy cutting has been 

 done. Only good cow manure should 

 be used, however, and be sure that the 

 houses are well wet down before it is 

 applied. It is always a good plan to 

 put on clear water first and follow it 

 with liquid manure. Of course you 

 will watch your plants carefully and 

 if they show any signs of becoming 

 soft you will stop using the liquid 

 manure at once, withholding it until 

 the plants are in a condition to use it 

 again. 



This is the proper time to lift and 

 pot up Canterbury Bells from the 

 field. You will find seven inch and 

 eight inch pots about right for most 

 plants, but extra large specimens will 

 need eight inch or ten inch pots. Use 

 a good compost and keep the plants 

 out of doors in a sunny place until 

 frosts come, when you should put 

 them on a bed of ashes in a cold 

 frame. Even then they will stand 

 some exposure to the weather, for a 

 few degrees of frost will do them no 

 harm. During the winter they can be 

 buried in dry leaves in the frames, 

 but can be started in a gentle heat 

 for spring blooming any time after 

 the middle of December. Campanula 

 medium has long been an excellent 

 flowering plant for florists, especially 

 those in the small towns.
