NEED FOR NEW VABIETIBS. 



[Ooncluded from page 12.] 



committee has spent a good deal of 

 time in examining and describing kinds 

 that might much better have been con- 

 fined to the originator's own premises, 

 but I think those ddys are over, and it 

 is just by setting up a high standard 

 that we can prevent them from recur-, 

 ring. 



"Now, I know that the professional 

 man often feels that he cannot be both- 

 ered with a batch of seedlings every 

 year — they take too much attention. 

 That may be true for him, but certainly 

 for the amateur, who does not have to 

 look to his garden as a source of profit, 

 it is always possible to set aside a cor- 

 ner for the 'youngsters,' and the thrill 

 with which the peony enthusiast sees 

 his first blooms open every year is much 

 intensified if there are even a couple 

 of dozen new ones to be watched as 

 they gradually develop their beauty. 

 Only it cannot be too often said that 

 if he will avoid disappointments he 

 must be particular as to the source of 

 his seed and take only the best. ' ' 



ANTS ON PEONIES. 



Will you kindly tell us how to keep 

 red ants from molesting peony plants? 

 They prevent the plants from blooming. 



S. F. S. 



The ants will not harm your peonies 

 and it is a mistake to blame them for 

 the plants flowering poorly. Frequent 

 inquiries are received as to how to get 

 rid of them on peonies when the plants 

 are in flower. They do no harm what- 

 ever to the buds or flowers, but are at- 

 tracted by the juices exuded. To get 

 rid of ants, water the ground about 

 their haunts with Vermifce,4)ne part to 

 300 parts of water, or poison them with 

 powdered sugar to which has been 

 added some finely powdered potassium 

 cyanide. The latter is a deadly poison 

 and must be handled with care. 



C. W. 



Aberdeen, S. D. — R. Strohmefer, who 

 recently sold his store to Miss Elizabeth 

 Youreman and Mrs. Minnidelle Kron- 

 enberger, will devote himself to grow- 

 ing carnations and developing roots and 

 bulbs. He is contemplating a consider- 

 able enlargement of his range to ac- 

 commodate this business.
