ii4 PRESENT-DAY GARDENING 



DECEMBER 



The work this month is similar to that in November, 

 but as the weather will probably be colder, mats should 

 be in readiness to place over the frames when there is 

 more frost than one or two degrees. It will be well to take 

 advantage of a fine day to stir the surface soil between 

 the lines of the plants. These remarks apply to Sweet 

 Violets, Pansies, and Violas.
