REVERSION OF PIEESONI FERNS. 



"What makes my ferns, bought for 

 Piersoni, revert back to the old Boston 

 type on a part of nearly every frond? 

 Should the true Piersoni do this? 



L. R. K. 



Piersoni ferns, and in fact all of the 

 newer varieties possessing the multiple 

 pinnae, are liable to revert to the orig- 

 inal Nephrolepis Bostoniensis and no 

 care in their culture seems to eradicate 

 the tendency. 



As soon as these reversion fronds ap- 

 pear, pinch them out. Give plenty of 

 pot room and keep a low temperature — 

 52 to 56 degrees. RiBES. 



BEST NATURAL FERTILIZERS. 



Is not liquid cow manure equal 

 to sheep manure if used properly, and 

 much cheaper when cow manure can be 

 had for $1.25 a two-horse load? 



X. Y. Z. 



If you can get cow manure at the price 

 you mention, you c?.n get nothing better 

 to use for enriching your soil. Of course 

 you use bone meal with it. Sheep ma- 

 nure is an excellent plant food, and when 

 feeding is done regularly it is a good 

 change for the plants, to use it about 

 every fourth time. While it is a good 

 thing to have on the place in "limited 

 quantity, yet it is not indispensable. 

 Many successful growers do not use it 

 at all when they can get plenty of cow 

 manure. My advice would be to stick 

 to the cow manure as closely as is found 

 practical and use the sheep manure only 

 as a change of diet. A. F. J. B.
