“ Forget-me-not.”—The origin of the 
popular name of this plant is a pretty 
legend. A gallant knight and his ladylove 
were walking on the bank of the Danube 
when she espied the pretty little flower in 
the water. The knight ventured in to get 
it, but the water was so deep and the 
undercurrent so strong thut, encumbered 
with armour, he could ‘not regain the 
bank. As he disappeared he threw the 
flower to his love and exclaimed, ‘ Vergess 
mein nicht ’—forget-me-not. 
“ Trrigator.’—Your question covers a 
lot of ground, like your watering. Water 
is essential to the life of plants it is true 
but you must not forget that water is not 
everything. While you may keep your 
plants alive with water, they probably do 
not thrive because the atmosphere is not 
right. Water from the clouds ls very dif- 
ferent from water out of a tap. : 
ATTENTION is directed to the adver- 
tisement of Stott & Hoare in this month’s 
issue. This firm are the sole agents in 
South Australia for the Remington Stan 
dard Typewriter, some hundreds of these 
typewriters being used by the leading 
Government, mercantile, and legal offices. 
The Remington was the first typewriter 
placed on the market over thirty years 
ago. The new Remin,ton billing and 
invoicing typewriter is having a very 
large sale, and numbers of them are being 
used for invoicing by many of the prin- 
cipal firms in the city. This typewriter 
_is a great saver, making out the invoice, 
' day-book, and cartnotes at one writing. 
, Another department, which should be of. 
b 
special interest to growers, is the type- 
writing copying office conducted by 
Messrs. Stott & Hoare, This branch of 
_the business undertakes the typewriting 
of circular lists of flowers, bulbs, etc., at 
“very reasonable rates (sea advertisement. 
‘on. page 18). 
THe decorative type of dahlia is well 
worthy of the consideration of all classes 
of growers possessing as it does in many 
of the varicties beloaging to it points of 
surpassing merit. Dahlias of this type are 
usually borne on stems superior to those 
of the cactus type for florists’ uses.
