Floater Beds. — "The love of a flower in the heart of a child is 
the highest thing that nature-study can hope to develop." — 
Hodge. 
Well-kept flower-beds should be a part of the nature-study 
equipment of every school in Hawaii. The care of the flowers 
should devolve upon the children, but this demands genuine 
enthusiasm and constant oversight on the part of the teacher. 
The congested condition of the schools, and the numerous de- 
mands upon the time and energy of the teacher usually re- 
sult in neglected flower gardens. 
The following suggestions, excerpted from the directions 
issued by the Home Gardening Association of Cleveland, 
Ohio, 1904, are pertinent to Haw^aiian conditions : 
"Avoid a place where the drippings of the roof will fall on 
the bed. The best effects are produced by planting all of 
one variety in one place. Dig the bed at least one foot deep. 
Mix with the soil some rich earth, well-rotted manure, or 
leaf-mold. Rake the beds well until the soil is fine and free 
from lumps. Do not plant seeds too deeply. This is a com- 
mon error. Sprinkle the beds as often as is necessary to pre- 
vent the soil from becoming dry. It is best to water beds in
