CYCLAMEN BUDS WILL OPEN. 



My cyclamens have buds which havi 

 not yet opened. These are in ;i house 

 with palms, ferns, bulbs, etc., in a he.nt 

 of about .").1 to 60 degrees at night and 

 sometimes 70 to 80 degrees in the dav- 

 time. T. G. G.— Ala." 



If the jilants are healthy, the buds

NO SIDE VENTILATION. 



What crop, either vegetable or flower, 

 would do best in a house that has no side 

 veiitijafionf .\re there any kinds of 

 plants which would not thrive in such 

 ■I house'.' W. C. S.--N. J. 



It would be well to grow tomatoes, 

 lollowing these with sweet peas. Neither 

 of these crops needs side ventilation; 

 in fact, a great many houses are now 

 built without any side ventilators. Such 

 cool crops as violets, chrysanthemums 

 and lettuces wotild be benefited by side 

 ventilation. C. W.
