TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
Daphnes (2L G.) —You will sec some remarks on them to-day by 
Mr. Fish. Your Jasmine will flower earlier in your conversatory. 
Name of Cedrus (E. N .)—The shoot you have sent us appears like 
that of Cedrus deodora, but it is not easy to distinguish it. If the tree 
is of a rigid habit of growth, it is the Cedar of Lebanon; if pendulous, it 
is the Deodar. 
Book on Poultry ( A Subscriber, Morayshire). — Buy “The 
Poultry Book,” published by Messrs. Orr and Co., Amen Corner. It 
will give you all the information you need. The N. E. aspect would do 
better than the limited space you mention for a house. 
Removing Grease Spots from Stone (Idem). —Wash it repeat¬ 
edly with a strong hot solution of common washing soda. Let some of 
the solution remain on the spots for some hours, renewing it as often as 
needed. 
Westwood’s Butterflies (B. Sells). —The new cheap edition con¬ 
cludes with the Appendix and Index. Write to Messrs. Orr, Amen 
Corner. They will tell you all about it. 
Lawn (H. A. S.) —The seeds your ground was sown with were old, and 
therefore did not vegetate. It too frequently happens that seeds that are 
sold for Grass-seeds are the sweepings of hay-lofts ; and as hay is always 
made before the seed is ripe, what is got from that source is only chaff. 
Dig up your ground in the last week of August, and sow it down with 
seeds in the beginning of September, when the soil is moist, if possible ; 
and take care this time that you get your seeds from a respectable 
source. You cannot do better than order them from one of the seeds¬ 
men who advertise such things in our columns. 
Names of Plants (Annie). —1. Sedum oppositifolium. 2. One of 
the Club Mosses, in the way Lycopodium Louisianum. 3. Echeveria 
secunda. 4. Escallonia macrophylla. 5. Aubrietia purpurea. 6. Arabis 
Alpina; Chieranthus Marshallii, can either be rooted from cuttings, or 
as soon as it is entirely out of flower it can be taken up and pulled all 
into bits, and planted anew in new situations, when it will make first-rate 
flowering bunches for another year. (L. A.) — Podalyria sericea. (A 
correspondent whose name we have lost). Gesnera Vouglasii.
