FUNGINE 



Westerly, R. I.. June 2S. 1911. 

 We have given your Funglne a fair test and 

 believe it to be all right. It seems to check mil- 

 dew and from what experience we have had so 

 far we believe that it will prove valuable in 

 fighting this particular trouble.

 Replying to your iavor in regard to Fungine, 

 we are pleased to gay that we have found it a 

 fine fungicide, especially on our chrysanthemum 

 cuttings, and all cuttings generally. Also fine 

 for mildew on roses. It Is the best fungicide we 

 have ever used.

the shamrock, or at least one variety 

 of it, viz.: Trifolium repens, which is 

 the variety most commonly sold for 

 shamrock. Oxalis Acetosella, or com- 

 mon wood sorrel, is also much sold for 

 shamrock, as also are several other 

 plants. No one can tell what the true 

 shamrock is, but if you plant Trifo- 

 lium repens it will be found to fill the 

 bill acceptably. C. W. 



PINCHING BACK COSMOS. 



Please tell me at what stage cosmos 

 should be when you cut them back or 

 top them to make the plants bloom 

 earlier. E. W. P. 



Cutting back or pinching back cosmos 

 will hardly make them bloom any 

 earlier. It will, however, make the 

 plants somewhat dwarfer and more 

 shapely. The pinching back can be 

 done now, and again a month hence. If 

 you want some nice, bushy plants, root 

 some of the tops you take off in the 

 propagating bench and pot on, flower- 

 ing them in 8-inch pots. By pinching 

 once or twice, the plants can be kept 

 fairly short. Keep them plunged out- 

 doors, with a stout stake to each, and 

 do not place them under glass until the 

 fall gales or early frost threatens their 

 extinction. C. W.
