WE SHOULD STUDY THE "WHY. 



Hundreds of flower lovers read floral 

 magazines and waste on bulbs that fail 

 enough money for a bountiful supply of 

 perfect blossoms from the greenhouses, 

 3'et seldom produce a flower. One reason 

 is aptly expressed in the language of the 

 king to Paul: " INIuch learning hath 

 made thee mad." 



For, one paragraph in " The Only True 

 Guide to Successful Flower Growing" 

 states that bulbs must be covered in a 

 dark place, and in the same pamphlet a 

 subscriber's experience advises light. 

 Again, the amateur reads " use rich soil " 

 and another "experienced grower" writes 

 that it is immaterial. But as the former 

 method seem.s most in favor, the puzzled 

 beginner stufts the earth with fertilizer 

 and the rich soil process is settled — so is 

 the fate of the bulb. The poor unfortu- 

 nate reads on : " This plant requires plenty 

 of water." He pours on the liquid, and 

 the next step is accomplished. If the 

 bulb survives the first step, this drenching 

 performance is all needed for a finishing 

 process. 



The truth is, amateurs do not realize 

 that successful flower culture requires 

 study. In this "oft" month" of November 

 is a good time to do a lot of thinking 

 about the nature of a plant — how it gen- 

 erates and breathes like ourselves. Yes, 

 and it will sulk, too, if not properly cared 

 for. 



Thoughtfully note how one loves the 

 sun, while another prefers a cool, retired 

 spot, and all will pine and droop away if 

 we forget that all they ask is good food, 

 pure air and water. And they love a bath. 

 W'rap a cloth around the earth and im- 

 merse the tops in plenty of clean water 

 — see how they strengthen up and thank 

 5-ou with their fresh glow. Quarantine 

 your unhealthy plants, freely using the 

 bath, and then you will not need in- 

 secticides.
