A box of high quality attracts the eye and makes it a pleasure to open 

 a neat, tasty package. Sefton Florists' Boxes are trade builders, inas- 

 much as they are high class and make a good impression. Purchasers 

 of our boxes were once users of the inferior grades.

of any sizes of coal, aiul prices are 

 high. Ill addition to this, there is still 

 the prospect of a strike or a suspen- 

 sion of mining April 1, at which time 

 the i)rcsent agreement with the mine 

 workers expires. The bituminous coal 

 trade is more active than it hns been 

 in years. The demand is enormous, and 

 prices are higli. This applies to prac- 

 tically all grades of coal. This condi- 

 tion has arisen for the same reason that 

 it has in the anthracite region," they

TEMPERATURE FOR PRIMROSES. 



AVhat temperature should seedlings of 

 Primula obconica and Sinensis be given 

 until the time for potting them? 



T. S. M. 



Until they germinate, (50 degrees at 

 night may be given, (iradually reduce 

 this about 10 degrees as they grow; .10 

 degrees should not be exceeded after 

 potting. C. "NV. 



PEAT VERSUS LEAF-MOLD. 



Is decayed peat suitable to use in 

 place of leaf-mold in soil for ferns, 

 cyclamens, gloxinias, etc .' T. S. M. 



Peat will answer well for ferns in 

 lieu of leaf-mold, but for cyclamens, 

 primulas, gloxinias, begonias and simi 

 lar plants it is not nearly so good. It 

 will answer fairly well until the seed- 

 lings are transplanted, but should not 

 be used later. If you cannot get leaf- 

 mold, well decayed cow manure will do 

 as well or better. In fact, after the 

 first potting there is no particular bene- 

 fit in using the leaf mold, as the plants 

 prefer some medium with more bodv 

 to it. W. C. ' 



PREPARING LAND FOR ASTERS. 



We should he ]deased to receive in 

 formation as to what to do with a 2i_.- 

 acre piece of land wliich has consider 

 able quack grass on it. We plowed the 

 land in the fall and also last spring. 

 This land has not grown any crop for 

 several years. Would it be advisable 

 to put manure on it this spring, or 

 would it be more profitable to use 

 sheep manure and bone meal ? We 

 intend to grow carnations and asters 

 on it. F. B. 



I have had no experience with quack 

 grass, but imagine that you could get 

 rid of it by plowing the patch every
