posts and without a partition. In either 

 case I would have the walls five and 

 one-half or six feet high, with three 

 or four feet of glass below the gutters. 



If the soil is sandy, the beds may be 

 practically on the ground level, but if 

 the soil is so heavy that perfect drainage 

 cannot be secured, the beds should be 

 slightly raised above the level of the 

 walks and, if necessary, one or more 

 tile drains should be placed under each 

 bed. If proper arrangement is made 

 for ventilation, there will be no diflScul- 

 ty about preventing sunburn; in fact, 

 there will be less of such danger than in 

 low houses. For growing Grand Rap- 

 ids and similar open-head varieties, it is 

 a good plan to have the beds several 

 feet below the glass. I would use glass 

 at least 16x20 inches and the 20x24 

 size is preferred by many of the most 

 successful growers. 



Full directions for building and pip- 

 ing greenhouses are given in "Green- 

 house Construction," by L. R. Taft, 

 and suggestions for growing lettuce and 

 other greenhouse vegetables, as well as 

 the leading greenhouse flowers, will be 

 found in "Greenhouse Management," 

 by the same author. Either of these 

 books will be furnished postpaid by The 

 Review for $1.50. 



MILDEW ON HYDRANGEAS. 



You will find enclosed two hydran- 

 gea leaves which have something 

 wrong with them. We have about 

 100 plants of these which are affected 

 in this way, and we shall be glad if 

 you will tell us what the trouble is 

 and how to remedy it. H. P. C. 



The hydrangea leaves forwarded 

 were affected by mildew. Spray with 

 Bordeaux mixture, Sulphocide, Fun- 

 gine or one of the other standard 

 remedies for fungoid diseases. Mean- 

 time, do not spray over the foliage of 

 your plants. Cold draughts are the 

 most probable cause of the mildew.
