the guise of an advertisement; and it isagreeable 
to the advertiser and a courtesy to the publisher 
to mention the source of j our information—In

THE JOHNSTON HARVESTERS ARE THE BEST 
(1) Which is the most profitable to raise for 
milch cows. Mangel Wnm-ls or Sugar Beets ? 
(2) What good book can I get giving inform¬ 
ation on raising root cropH ? 
(3) Can I obtain Iho seeds from Washington? 
and to whom shall J apply ?—Qoeihst, Old Lyme, 
Conn. 
(1) The Mangels grow the largest, but are not 
BO rich in saccharine matter as tbe Sugar Beets, 
consequently wo should give tbe latter the pre¬ 
ference for the purpose you name. 
(2) Quinn’s “ Money in the Garden," Tetek 
FIendkkson’s “Gardening for Profit,"or Burr’s 
“ Vegetables of Commerce,’’ are excellent works 
on the subject. . 
(3) We cannot say. never having had occasion 
to apply to the Government seed store for our 
supply of garden seeds. You can, however, get 
the seeds desirod from any of the seedsmen, 
whose cards appear in our advertising columns. 
Idem, J>o you know what kind of a vine the 
Climbing Fern (LygOdinm- scand/tna) isDo 
you think it as desirable for a house vine as 
Btnilax ? Several of ray floral friends hero asked 
me about it, but I could not answer their inqui¬ 
ries. 
A ms.—I t requires a ruoist air and cool temper¬ 
ature. It is a delightful Forn, but will not tako 
the place of Smilax. In a dry, hot room it Boon 
becomes infested with insects. It grows readily 
from seeds (spores). It is advertised and praised 
as a parlor or room plant for baskets, etc. We 
think, for such uses, it will disappoint the pur¬ 
chaser. 
M. H\ 1 do not know what to make of my 
hardy Phlox. Plants get up two or three inches 
high and all at once they lop over the edge of the 
pot and are gone. I lay it to burning coal—can 
think or no other reason for their strange be¬ 
havior. 
Ass.—We have had seedling Phlox act as you 
describe that were kept, alternately too moist and 
too dry. A coal stove in the same room would 
not injure them. 
J\f. — See whether the fruit treeB are girdled by 
mice above or below the graft. If above, buds 
will push from the graft and form bearing trees 
as sood, pet haps, as others purchased from 
nurseries. If below the original graft, you can 
regni.fl the shoots from tbe stock. (2) It is our 
way when a young tree from any cause becomes 
seriously diseased to throw it away and plant 
another in its placo. It is difficult to restore 
health to sickly trees and, not unfrequently, 
after several years of doctoring one is obliged to 
throw them away at last.
