large, well colored flowers in numbers. 

 The history of those plants as told by 

 Mr. Jamison is extremely interesting. 

 It seems that early in October the house, 

 which is 70x600 feet, had a little aphis, 

 commonly known as green fly, here and 

 there. A light fumigation with liquid 

 nicotine on the pipes was planned. A 

 government expert, however, advised 

 the use of hydrocyanic gas as more 

 thorough and less expensive. Mr. Jami- 

 son finaUy agreed to this on the govern- 

 ment expert's assurance that in his 

 hands it was perfectly safe. The house 

 was gassed late in the afternoon Octo- 

 ber 7 and allowed to remain closed all 

 night. The next morning the plants ap- 

 peared badly burned. The foliage was 

 scorched down to the ground and the 

 young growths dropped off. The lower 

 eyes on many of the plants swelled 

 and started to grow soon after. It 

 is simply wonderful that today many 

 of these plants show no signs of in- 

 jury. Some plants of the other varie- 

 ties died and some are stunted. Mr. 

 Jamison thinks that gassing should 

 never be done with plants in active 

 growth. If it is to be done at all, the 

 proper time is when the houses are cut 

 back and cleaned. In defense of the 

 use of hydrocyanic gas it is said that the 

 government expert may have miscalcu- 

 lated the cubic feet of air space in the 

 house and so he may have given too 

 strong a dose. It is further stated 

 that it would have been better to open 

 the house one hour after gassing it 

 rather than to allow it to remain closed 

 all night.
