that lime is in no respect a plant food, 

 but its use makes certain plant foods 

 lying dormant available. 



You can use heavier applications of 

 ground than slaked lime or burned lime. 

 Slaked lime contains sixty-five to 

 seventy per cent of lime and magnesia; 

 burned lime, ninety to ninety-eight per 

 cent, and ground lime only forty-eight 

 to fifty per cent. Personally, I like to 

 use lime not more frequently than once 

 in three years and at the rate of 2,000 

 to 3,000 pounds per acre. Less frequent 

 applications may be advisable, as may 

 lighter or heavier applications, depend- 

 ing on soil conditions. C. W. 



PROPAGATING FICUS ELASTICA. 



Please inform me how to moss a ficus 

 plant. State, also, what length of time 

 is required to produce roots in the moss, 

 in a temperature of 60 degrees. 



C. H.— Ont. 



It is presumed that the ficus referred 

 to is the common rubber plant, Ficus 

 elastica. Propagation by mossing can 

 be accomplished at almost any sea- 

 son of the year, but from the first part 

 of January till the end of May is usu- 

 ally considered the most favorable time 

 and the wood is most likely to be in the 

 right condition then. Where propagat- 

 ing is done on an extensive scale, well 

 branched stock plants are reserved for 

 the purpose, but the tops of young 

 plants may be used. An incision is 

 made in the chosen shoot, sufficiently 

 far from its tip so that the wood is 

 neither too green nor too hard. The cut 

 is made, preferably, between two eyes; 

 it is made with an upward slant, ex- 

 tending about halfway through the 

 shoot, and may be from an inch to an 

 inch and a half long, according to the 

 thickness of the shoot. Most com- 

 monly a small wedge, formed from a 

 piece of match or from one or two tooth- 

 picks, is inserted to keep the incision 

 open. Some growers, however, merely 

 push a little sphagnum into the cut; 

 others use a fragment of ch.arcoal as a 

 wedge; still others coat both sides of 

 the cut with a mixture of lime and char- 

 coal dust, in the belief that this appli- 

 cation hastens the process of callousing. 

 The incision is then covered by wrap- 

 ping around it a good-sized handful of 

 clean sphagnum, which is fastened in 

 place by tying it somewhat tightly with
