WIN DOW- GARDEN 



plant warrants. But never give enough to 

 bring about a forced growth. Aim always 

 and only to secure healthy development. A 

 plant forced into rapid growth is never a 

 healthy one, remember. It will lack the vital- 

 ity necessary to carry it through the working 

 period successfully. 



.Give all the fresh air you can. Open doors 

 and windows at some distance from your plants 

 on pleasant days, and give your plants a chance 

 to breathe in pure oxygen in liberal quantity. 

 Give all the sunshine you can. And aim to 

 keep the temperature of the room between 

 seventy degrees by day and fifty-five at night. 

 It will probably exceed these figures in both 

 directions, but try to regulate it in such a way 

 as to avoid the extremes of intense heat and 

 dangerous cold. 



Use water liberally on the foliage of your 

 plants. By washing off the dust, it keeps open 

 the pores of the leaves through which they 

 breathe, and it tempers the hot, dry atmos- 

 phere usually prevailing in the living-room. 

 The only way to modify this condition is to 

 keep water constantly evaporating on stove or 

 register and make frequent use of the sprayer.
