of these has been removed for stock, 

 the stem of the stock plant is cut off 

 to the next tier of branches, which in 

 turn will furnish another set of cut- 

 tings, and so on until the plant is re- 

 duced to the bottom layer of branches, 

 when it is discarded and another stock 

 obtained from seed. It should be 

 pointed out that the branches them- 

 selves may be rooted as cuttings, but 

 they always retain their flat, asymmet- 

 rical shape and are useless for stock 

 purposes. 



Not many araucarias are seen in 

 this country, in comparison with the 

 numbers in the days before quarantine 

 37. Attempts are being made to grow 

 them commercially here, but at present 

 the labor and time necessary to pro- 

 duce salable plants are so great as to 

 make the price quite high, particularly 

 in comparison with that of the stock 

 which used to come here from Bel- 

 gium. 



GROWING GLADIOLUS BULBS. 



For the successful cultivation of 

 gladioli for bulbs, sandy soil is essen- 

 tial. The ground should be prepared 

 so that it is in a loose, friable condi- 

 tion. Ideal soil is probably a sod, 

 plowed in the fall and then thoroughly 

 worked in the spring. If the soil is not 

 sufficiently rich in plant food, any 

 strong manures are best used on a crop 

 of some kind other than gladioli the 

 season before the latter are planted. 

 Fresh stable manure should be avoided 

 for gladioli. Any complete fertilizer is 

 beneficial when thoroughly worked into 

 the soil, at the rate of 600 to 1,000 

 pounds to an acre. 



Planting should be begun as early in 

 the spring as the proper working of the 

 soil will permit. When the ground has 

 been prepared, furrows should be made 

 four inches deep and from two to three 

 feet apart, according to the methods 

 of cultivation. If the bulbs for planting 

 exceed one and one-half inches in di- 

 ameter, they should be placed right 

 side up in the furrows by hand, either 

 in single rows or in double rows two 

 inches apart. Bulbs of smaller size may 

 be scattered, as evenly as possible, 

 along the furrow, with an average of 

 ten or twelve to the foot. Good culture 

 through the growing season is neces-
