ground. If your ground is free from 

 mice you can sow them at once, other- 

 wise pack the seed away until spring by 

 putting it between alternate layers of 

 moist sand in boxes, flower pots or other 

 receptacles. This will keep them fresh 

 until early spring, when they ought to 

 be sown in rows about six inches apart, 

 and about one and a half to two inches 

 between the seeds. They will soon 

 germinate and be nice little stock by 

 next fall. 



Camellia Japonica seeds ought to be 

 sown at once after ripening. Seedlings 

 will hardly ever reproduce the mother 

 plant, but will show new, and often good 

 new varieties. The common way of 

 propagation is by euttingc during the 

 winter months, or by grafting. 



Biota Orientalis seed may be planted 

 in fall, or in early spring. It can be 

 sown fairly close, and it will germinate 

 quickly; with good seed a fine stand is 

 assured. 



It is auvisable to cover the seedbeds 

 after sowing with a good mulch, which 

 must be removed when the seedlings be- 

 gin to come up. For shade use frames 

 made of building laths, or frames cov- 

 ered with burlap, or even brush. Get 

 the seedlings accustomed gradually to 

 the sun by raising the frames and then 

 removing them during cloudy days, until 

 you leave them oflp entirely. 



When watering the seedlings, be care- 

 ful not to swamp them out, but do not 

 keep them too dry. Observation will 

 prove the best teacher.

CYANIDE FOR SCALE. 



I notice in your issue for July 12 

 Mr. Scott says that fumigation with 

 cyanide has no effect on scale. I would 

 like to know his reason for this state- 

 ment, as all nurserymen are using it 

 for San Jose scale in its most dormant 

 state \A-ith perfect results. W. B. G. 



My reason for stating that the fumes 

 of cyanide of potash would not destroy 

 scale was because the violet grower who 

 first gave me the formula told me that

it was death to any insect that had 

 lungs, but on creatures without lungs 

 it had no effect. 



I am aware nurserymen fumigate trees 

 and shrubs, but is it to destroy San 

 Jose scale that they use cyanide f We 

 thought sulphur was the base of the 

 scale insecticides, as it is when houses 

 arc fumigated after a contagious disease, 

 like diphtheria, scarlet fever, etc. If 

 W. B. G. is sure that nurserymen use the 

 cyanide fumigation on the trees and it 

 destroys the scale I will be glad to ac- 

 knowledge my error. W. S.
