FORCING SNAPDRAGONS 
FOR GROWING OUT-DOORS. We find the forcing or early class 
best for this purpose, especially if the strong growing kinds are used. 
Not only are they 1 to 2 weeks earlier flowering than most of the late 
or original class but the colors are much more complete and more uni- 
form. However, the original or resistant strains should be used for 
out-door work where rust prevails for the forcing kinds have little or 
no resistance to it. For out-door work in our latitude, we find that a 
February lst sowing grown on as cool as possible in 3 to 4 in. pots and 
planted out in May under cloth will produce excellent flowers by late 
June and more or less thru the summer. For early Winter flowering 
under glass, most sowings are made in June.
