plants to the flower-beds, the space might be appropriated to the culti- 

 vation of plants of the commoner sort for an autumn display. The 

 pits will be found useful for many hard-wooded greenliouse plants, im- 

 patient of too much heat. Propagate Roses by cuttings from those 

 plants which have been forced ; and place the plants in a rather shady 

 situation, in order that they may have a period of rest for a few weeks. 

 Calceolarias that have ceased blooming should be re-potted; cutoff 

 dead tops, place the plants in a situation where they can be shaded 

 from hot sun, admitting it morning and evening ; also the roots be 

 kept cool, by being plunged in moss, or coal-ashes, &c. Cinerarias 

 also that have done blooming sliould have the tops cut off, be fumigated 

 in a close frame, as they are often affected with green fly ; after wliich 

 the plants should be turned out of the pots, and planted in a somewhat 

 raised bed, of good soil, in a shady place in the garden. The tubers of 

 Tropaeolums whicli have ceased blooming, and the tops witiiered, must 

 be taken out of the soil, or be kept in a bag, &c., or the pot must be 

 put aside, where it may iiave the soil kept dry till potting time. Green- 

 house plants placed in tlie open air in pots should liave frequent 

 waterings at tlie under side of tiie foliage, to destroy or keep down 

 green fly.
