GET PREMIUM PRICE — CUT LOSSES 
Use No. 2 Cloverset Pots or 91/2” Bird Paper Pots. Soil should be a mixture of three parts of any good soil and one part of peat 
or rotted cow manure. Place about two inches of soil on bottom of pot. Work roots into pot by turning and fill to top with soil. 
Use hammer handle or cut broom handle to pack soil firmly. Re fill with soil if necessary and fill pot so there is about two inch 
space between top of soil and rim. Water thoroughly, so soil is wet all the way through. Place potted plants in a cool frame 
or any other place where they will not be exposed to drafts or wind. Light frost will not harm them. Keep tops moist, main- 
taining high humidity by spraying lightly. Allow soil to get slightly dry before watering again. This is to encourage vigorous 
root growth. After plants are well started and growing give increasing amounts of water as needed. Feed with Hygro or 
other good liquid fertilizer when buds are the size of a pea.
