WATERING EVEROBEENS. 



Each spring many evergreens die, 

 especially broad-leaved ones. This is 

 due much less to winter's cold than to 



dryness at the root. Evergreens, if 

 moist at the root, will stand a great 

 deal of cold. Those with dry feet, 

 even our own native varieties, will fre- 

 quently die. In many sections the rain 

 fall has been deficient for several 

 months, and losses in evergreens next 

 spring will be heavy unless the plants 

 arc well soaked now, before the ground 

 freezes up. This is particularly true 

 of rhododendrons, which should not re- 

 ceive their winter mulch of leaves iln- 

 less their roots have been well mois- 

 tened, and is true of all evergreens 

 planted within the last two or three 

 years.

 Everyone sold out. Out-of-town busi- 

 ness, too, was good, both wholesalers 

 and retailers reporting many shipping 

 orders. As to the grade of the stock 

 offered, most of it was of the best. 

 Mums had been held back for Thanks- 

 giving by the growers, but the market 

 nevertheless soon was d('i)lete(l of both 

 large mums and the pompons. Koses 

 and carnations were of rather inferior
