TUB GARDEN 
The best effect will be gained 
by sinking the tub in the ground 
right up to the rim. Fill the 
tub half full of rich soil, cover 
this with half an inch of clean 
sand and fill with water. The 
little “pool” is now ready for 
the water lilies, aquatics and 
perenials, rock plants and fish.

DARLINGTONIA 
SNAKE HEADED, FLESH EATING PLANT 
One of the queerest and most fascinating 
plants known to man. It resembles the hooded 
cobra of the jungles of India. 
The plant has no leaves, the stalks are twisted 
and funnel shape, small at the bottom, growing 
larger with a roundsd hood at the top from 
which hang two crimson and green apendages 
which have the appearance of feelers or whis¬ 
kers. 
Top of the hood is beautifully mottled by white 
translucent areas through which the interior 
is lighted. Both hood and appendages bear 
many honey glands, the excretion from which 
tempts bugs, flies, in fact all kinds of insects 
toward the mouth, an orfice on the under 
side of the hood, and are lured inside the fun- 
nel-like stem from which they can not come 
back, as the stem is lined with enumerable 
little hair-like prongs all pointing downward, 
and once they get below a few of these points 
they have to continue on downward where they 
are absorbed in the digestive fluid or liquid 
in the bottom of the stem. 
The Darlingtonia is a perenial plant, grow¬ 
ing year after year and can be grown as a 
house plant in pots using sandy soil and leaf 
mould. They do best outside in a shaded posi¬ 
tion, where they require very little care, but 
should never be allowed to become dry. Beauti¬ 
ful purple flower. 
If kept in a room free from all insects, it is 
advisable once or twice weekly to jplace a few 
small particles of raw beef, about the size of a 
grain of wheat, in the orfice for its nourish¬ 
ment ; however, if placed where there are other 
plants in the average room, a sufficient num¬ 
ber of insects will be attracted from them, 
making artificial feeding unnecessary.

States, at $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50.
