FREESIAS. 



To have each of your freesias a 

 miniature gladiolus in appearance, 

 plant deep, the top at least an inch 

 below the surface, keep in a cold at- 

 mosphere and give strong sunshine 

 and moisture. This will induce stur- 

 dy growth. The best time to plant is 

 in July and August; five bulbs in a 

 five-inch pot, using a compost of 

 equal parts of turfy loam and leaf 

 mold. They do not require a dark 

 place to root, but should be sheltered 

 till the tiny blades appear, then place 

 in the strong sunshine. Water care- 

 fully until the pots are filled with 

 roots, then if the drainage is perfect 

 there is little danger of over-water- 

 ing. I use no fertilizer until the buds 

 appear, then water once a week with 

 weak liquid manure.

THIS, THAT AND THE OTHER. 



As June is the month of roses, we 

 should be vigilant. By beginning 

 early in May with kerosene emulsion 

 or whale oil soap dissolved in water 

 and applied with a sprayer, we can 

 succeed in keeping our roses free 

 from insect pests. For the leaf hop- 

 per, white hellebore is the best rem- 

 edy I ever tried. Wet the foliage 

 with soap suds and dust the hellebore 

 on with a dusting box or bellows. 



A pretty combination can be made 

 with a scarlet geranium for center, 

 followed with blue ageratum, with a 

 border of sweet alyssum. In these 

 we have three shades of green in foli- 

 age, with red, blue and white bloom. 



Z. M. Eckert, Ohio, asks how a cen- 

 tury plant should be treated in win- 

 ter. The agave should be kept dor- 

 mant in winter, without any water, 

 for they will absorb sufficient mois- 

 ture by evaporation. The cause of 

 your plant rotting was low tempera- 

 ture and over-watering. If decayed as 

 you say, it is perhaps dead already.
