BOBDEAUX CLOaS THE SPEAYEE. 



Do you know of a Bordeaux mixture 

 which is made without lime, and which 

 is good for fairy ring on carnations? 

 The lime clogs the sprayer so badly 

 that it is certainly hard to use. 



L. M. S. & C. 



Lime is an essential constituent of 

 Bordeaux mixture. There should be 

 no trouble with clogging of the 

 sprayer if the solution is strained 

 through a fine wire strainer before 

 putting it in the sprayer. W. H. T. 



SAVING ASTEE SEED. 



I should like to know when is the 

 proper time to harvest early aster seed. 

 Is it better to pull up the plants when 

 they are just done blooming and still 

 a little green, or wait until they are 

 thoroughly dried out late in the fall? 



W. J. K. 



It will not do to pull up the aster 

 plants as soon as the flowers are faded, 

 as the seed is then in an immature con- 

 dition. Wait until the plants are fairly 

 well dried. Examine one of the flowers, 

 and if the seeds look plump the plants 

 are ready to be pulled up. C. "W. 



SUEFACE SOIL IS GEEEN. 



Our Easter lilies are green and 

 healthy, with no sign of insects or 

 disease, but the soil in the pots is turn- 

 ing green. Will that do the plants any 

 damage? If so, what shall we do for 

 them? This is our first trial with 

 Easter lilies. L. M. S. & C. 



The green growth on the surface of 

 the soil in the lily pots is due to fre- 

 quent waterings, and is not specially 

 harmful. W. H. T.
