CROPS FOR VACANT HOUSES. 



(';in .vou infonii mo wliat crop to put 

 inio iny houses in order to realize some 

 iiiouev (luring the sj^riiif; months? The 

 stock must be something that will grovv' 

 without artificial heat, as through an 

 accident during a cold night my boiler 

 got lie.vond repair and the heating sye- 

 tem will hav(> to be changed also. 1 

 erected a small structure, to lie heated 

 by a stove, intending to start small 

 plants and seedlings ther" and set them 

 out when danger of frost in the green- 

 liouses is past or passing. T was think- 

 ing of lettuce, but could anyone suggest 

 liowers, or a crop for Memorial day? I 

 have three 100-foot houses. 0. B. 



Lettuce, being the hardiest of the 

 \fgetables usually grown under glass, 

 could ))C sown with sa^'ity. even with- 

 out fire heat, by tlie end of I'ebruary. 

 "^'oii could fidlow if witli a crop of 

 futnatoes, whi(di wmild pmve a profit- 

 able suiiuner crop. The pl.aiits for these 

 could lie started in your small house. 

 Such varieties as < omet, Best of All, 

 Chalk's Karly .bwel and Stirling Castle 

 are excellent under glass. 



Tn the way of flowers yon rould sow 

 giant white candytuft early in ^Vfarch 

 and have it ilower for ^Memorial day. 

 You can also, if you wish, sow ten 

 weeks' stocks at once in your small 

 house and later plant them in one of

 Memorial day. <!ladioli. such as Amer- 

 ie,'i, lirenchh'yensis. Augusta and others 

 of the large ilowered class, could be 

 planted at the end of February and 

 would prove a useful :ind salable crop.
