SALINE WATER FOR PLOVERS. 



In digging a well for some new green- 

 houses we struck water that is strong 

 with magnesia. The water is soft and 

 seems to be suitable for drinking. Do 

 you think it will harm the flowers! 



W. C. H. 



Saline waters are those, the predomi- 

 nant properties of which depend upon 

 saline impregnation. The salts most usu- 

 ally present are the sulphates and car- 

 bonates of sodium, calcium and mag- 

 nesium; in the latter case the name mag- 

 nesian is given to them. This element, 

 magnesium, in some form or other is uni- 

 versally disseminated throughout the 

 whole of the earth 's crust. This accounts 

 for traces of magnesia in the ashes of all 

 plants and animals, and for its presence 

 in almost all natural waters. 



If this is the only salt in the wa'ter, 

 and the impregnation is not too strong, 

 there is no danger in using it either for 

 irrigation or syringing. A safe plan 

 would be to expose it to sunlight for some 

 time before using it for syringing.

on it during the cold weather. Select 

 a piece of ground with a slight slope; 

 the aspect is immaterial. Transplant the 

 pansies, either into beds or regular nur- 

 sery rows. After the ground is hard 

 frozen, say about the first week in De- 

 cember, spread a light coating of coarse 

 meadow hay (that from salt marshes is 

 often used) or straw which has been 

 used for bedding and from which the 

 manure has been shaken out, broadcast 

 over the plants. In order to prevent 

 this covering from being blown away, 

 lay some pine boughs, pea brush or corn 

 stalks over it. Do not remove this cov- 

 ering too early, for the greatest injury 

 to pansies comes in March, with the al- 

 ternate freezing and thawing, which 

 heaves the plants from the ground. 



Be sure not to put on the protection 

 until the ground is frozen; too early cov- 

 ering would be injurious. Remember 

 also that a heavy coating of mulch is 

 not wanted. The idea is to protect the 

 plants from the sun, which harms them 

 more late in the winter than the frost, 

 and not to keep them warm. Leaves 

 make a good mulching, but blow away 

 too easily. 



Of course you can winter pansies well 

 in coldframes if you have any such to
