We have tried to give ‘most often asked” questions but in a We are at your service. While we are prepared to give the same prompt service to which our patrons are accustomed, there is a peculiar condition for a few weeks in the Spring, when the bulk of our Business is crowded into a few weeks time. early as possible, but be governed wholly by your planting tame. Guide as it is valuable the year around. To relieve this congestion, may we ask you to get your order in as Preserve this Planting Roses Your first requisite to success is to procure summer propagated—fall or winter rested—own root roses. As long as a stem of such a plant remains you have the same Rose. Budded or grafted plants will throw shoots from the roots and eventually sap the very life from the graft and leave you a bed of wild stuff that never blooms. Our slogan for forty years, ‘““Buy Own Root Roses” is still in vogue and from the complimentary letters received this fall from New England to California and from the Lakes to the Gulf about the success of own root Roses— roots the slogan firmer in our minds than ever and we still grow them by the million. Roses for Outdoor Planting THE SOIL—A deep clay loam with free drainage. If drainage is bad, the soil must be thrown out to a depth of 18 inches, and, if it is not convenient to use tiles, about 5 or 6 inches of broken bricks or other rough material should be thrown in the bottom, ana a layer of turf laid on top, grassy side down. On the top of the turf should be placed a layer of well-decayed manure, then a light layer of soil, and another layer of manure, on top of which should be placed the remainder of the soil, to which, if light and sandy, should be added a liberal supply of well- chopped-up turf, raising the whole of the bed to a height of about 4 inches above the original level of the soil. In case of heavy land, a layer of lime rubble should be added, as this will help to sweeten the soil. PLANTING—Should be deferred in the north until the soil is in proper condition to receive the plants in the spring, as it is a great mistake to plant in wet soil. Teas and Hybrid_ Teas should be planted about 18 inches apart and the Hybrid Perpetuals 2 feet apart, keeping all manure away from direct contact with the roots when planting. Firm the soil well around the plants and give a thorough watering. PROTECTION—None needed in warm states. Northern States must protect Teas and Hybrid Teas (the Ever-blooming class). Bend the plants to the ground and cover to the depth of six or eight inches with dirt, or hill them up to within 2 or 3 inches of the top of plants. Do this on the approach of freezing weather. Or wrap each plant with straw, and about this wrap five or six thicknesses of newspaper; tie this at intervals, leaving about three inches of plant exposed for air. More plants are smothered than are frozen by the average amateur. Let the straw flare out at the bottom to run water away from the root of the plant when it rains. Remove this as late in the spring as possible, so that you miss the late spring freezes, which are death to Roses after the sap starts up. PRUNING—Remove all old growth from the Ever-blooming class, as this induces new growth, from which you get the flowers. Cut all dead growth from Hybrid Perpetuals and Hardy Climb- ers after they bloom in June. The new growth starts from the Carnations Plant in the open ground, or in pots, make large specimens, and when brought indoors in the fall produce an abundance of flowers throughout the entire winter. Pinch the plant back frequently during the summer season. In the fall bring indoors, place in a four or five-inch pot, keep in temperature of forty or fifty degrees at night. If not pinched in they will bloom profusely during the Se. Any good garden soil with some well-rotted manure added. ALL ORDERS— Unless Otherwise Stated Shipped via Parcel Post, Charges Paid By Us. old wood and produces the blooming wood for the coming year. This pruning of Teas and Hybrid Teas should be done in early spring. “To dig and delve in nice clean dirt Can do a mortal little hurt. To live 'mongst lush and growing things Is like to give the spirit wings. Who works 'mangst roses soon will find Their fragrance budding in his mind, And minds that sprout with roses free— ‘ Well, that’s the sort of mind for me.” FERTILIZER—Use well-rotted manure or bone-meal when plant grow e stops. This induces new growth, from which you get the bloom. INSECTS—Aphis, leaf-rollers, and slugs are the most common. Spray with Rose Nicotine, being sure to reach the under side of the leaves and the tender tips of the branches. We can supply this at 60 cents and 85 cents per bottle. Give your nearest express Office. Can only be sent by express prepaid. MILDEW—The white mould-like stuff on tender leaves. Caused by warm days and cool nights. Dust flowers of sulphur on the affected leaves. Get this from the druggist. THE SORTS TO PLANT—To have bloom all the summer, plant Tea and Hybrid Teas, known as Ever-blooming Rases. They will all flower all summer under ordinary care. Keep soil well stirred. Mulch to a depth of three inches with fresh stable manure or lawn clippings during the heat of summer. If you wish Rose hedges, use all one variety. No two sorts grow alike, and an uneven hedge is unsightly. Southern and Pacific States should order Tea, Hybrid Tea, Climbing Tea, Polyantha and Pernetiana. These are ever- bloomers. Add Hybrid Perpetuals, Hardy Climbers and Moss for the Northern States. If planted early, protect from frost, wind and sun by invert- ing a fruit jar over each plant, tilting to admit a little air. Whitewash the jar on the outside or wrap with paper, to break the direct rays of the sun. Cultivation of Dahlias They love an open sunny location, but succeed in partial shade. Prepare the soil thoroughly by, digging 12 to 18 inches deep, possibly in the fall and then again in the spring, before planting. If the soil is poor, work in some well-rotted stable manure, or artificial fertilizer, but don't overdo this. Dig the holes 3 feet apart, and about 6 inches deep; drive a stout stake in each hole, and lay the tuber down flat, with the eye to the stake, and cover with two to three inches of fine soil, leaving the hole to be filled after the plant comes up. Plant any time between April Ist and June 15th. When the plants have made their third set of leaves, cut out the top, to make them branch. The most important thing from now on is hoeing and culti- vating the soil, until the buds appear; then give the beds a good mulching of manure, to keep the ground moist; and water the plants thoroughly once or twice a week. If red spider or thrips appears, spray with a nicotine solution. To have large blooms, it is absolutely necessary to disbud; that means, to break off all the side shoots on each stem, above the first or second set of leaves. leaving the sprouts near the base of each stem, so as to insure a new crop of blossoms. Dahlias will continue to bloom until the frost kills the tops; the tubers are dug and stored in a dry cellar or basement, cover them with dry sand, soil or sawdust, to keep from shriveling. Divide the tubers in the spring after the eyes show plainly, being careful that each tuber has an eye. Cover them again and keep dry until planted. Wiese ashes used sparingly and bone flour are essential to fine ahlias. Gladiolus Will do well in almost any soil under any conditions. If planted in the richest place of your garden and given plenty of sun and moisture they will, however, repay you with extra-large and gor- geous colors. To obtain a continuation of blooms during the greatest part of the season, it is advisable to plant at intervals of ten days, from the first week in April until the middle of June. Some varieties will bloom in seventy-five to eighty days from the date of planting, but most sorts require eighty-five to ninety days. Plant the bulbs about 5 or 6 inches deep and from 3 to 4 inches apart. In October, when the foliage has turned yellow, dig the bulbs, cut the stems off within an inch of the bulbs, and dry them thor- oughly. Then remove the old roots and store the bulbs in a cool, dry place where frost cannot reach them. Plant by the dozen, or even by the hundred. MISS ELLA V. BAINES, The Woman Florist, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. German Iris 1R1tS—are sun loving plants, and delight in a warm, well drain soil, where the roots at the surface can become hardened in # sun; they will thrive well almost anywhere except in low, wet soil, for here the roots will decay. a5 CULTURE—A dry, sunny location is best, and they do well in almost any soil that is not too low and damp. By all means avoid fresh stable manure; use well decayed manure or compo: if yeu must enrich the soil. Plant to depth not to exceed two inches. zi Hardy Perennial Phlox This is one of the most easily grown hardy perennials, can be used to advantage either as single specimens in the mixed border or as large clumps or beds on the lawn. They should have a rich deep and rather moist soil, and let each clump have a space of | from two to three feet in which to develop. They will continue to thrive for several years with little attention, as is attested by the fine clumps about old homesteads. They are admirably adapted for cemetery planting; also for a low hedge or screen to hide old fences and unsightly objects. Perennials for the Border A light covering of rough litter or pine boughs where obtainable—well weighted down to They pack tightly over plants and in case of sleet in winter your plants smother. Our list comprises the most satisfactory to grow. Can be planted either fall or spring. keep them in place, never use leaves. are smothered than are frozen. FERNS—Good soil, woods earth if possible, otherwise mix one- fourth well-rotted manure with any good garden soil, adding a little sand to keep the soil from packing. Place about an inch of charcoal or cinders in the bottom of pots for drainage. Water thoroughly each time, until the water goes through to the saucer, then stop and do not water again until the soil becomes dry, which you can tell by sight or touch; then water in the same manner as before. Give a light window, but do not place in direct sunshine. INSECTS AND FERNS—Two sorts of scale infect Ferns—the white fern scale and the brown scale. The first is quite small and white, the latter half-round, brown in color and about the size of a Sweet Pea seed split in two. TREATMENT—Burn the plant affected with white scale. Make a lather of Ivory Soap, and with a toothbrush scrub the brown scale off. The brown spots on the edge of the under side of the leaves are seed or spores. This is a sign the frond is mature and is ready to rest. Many think this is an insect or disease. BEGONIAS, CYCLAMEN, ASPARAGUS, FRENCH HY- DRANGEAS, BRUGMANSIA, COLEUS, ACALYPHAS, RUELLIAS, FUCHSIAS, IMPATIENS, JUSTICIA, JESSA- MINES, PRIMROSES, BROWALIAS, SELAGINELLA, SAXIFRAGA, GENISTA, ALYSSUM, VELVET PLANT— All meauice same soil, drainage, water, and sunlight conditions as Fern CYCLAM EN—Cyclamen are great feeders, like leaf mould soil or good rich garden soil. Crushed charcoal is a soil sweetener and also acts as drainage. Mix with or place in bottom of pot. The bulb should be about 14 exposed when potting. Subdued light and good circulation of air will bring results. Allow bulb to rest in Summer. Repot in September. MEALY BUG is the only insect that troubles this list of plants. Procure wood alcohol, dilute one-half with water, and apply with a feather to the bug or affected parts. CHRYSANTHEMUMS—Piant in the open ground as soon as danger of frost is past in spring. Mulch with well-rotted manure. Never allow the plants to dry out after the buds set on; this causes the flowers to blast. If you wish large bloom, remove _ all but one main or terminal bud from each stem. An occasional dose of plant food or liquid manure once a week is necessary. The Black Aphis is the enemy. Spray with Rose Nicotine twice a week. Plants can be left in the ground in winter in warm States. They must be lifted from the ground in cold States, about September Ist, with some soil clinging to the roots. Place in pots, keep shaded from the sun and wind for a few days, and remove to the house or pit, keeping the temperature as low as possible without freezing. GERANIUMS and PELARGONIUMS—Any good garden soil. A temperature of 55 to 60 degrees for house culture. Water only when dry. Our Stim-U-Plant tablet is a fine fertilizer for all house plants. Lady Washington or Pelargonium Geraniums are subject to white fly and green aphis. One of our customers gets rid of >this fly by scrubbing the under side of the leaves with a suds made from Ivory Soap; 1 teaspoon of coal oil to the quart of Seany, water. Also spray with Rose Nicotine about twice a week or aphis. CANNAS, DAHLIAS, GLADIOLUS, PEONIES, HARDY SHRUBS AND PERENNIAL PLANTS are for outdoor plant- ing. Fall planting for Peonies although we have fine roots in cold storage for those who failed to plant in the fall. The bulbs mentioned should be planted when the ground warms up in May. In Fall, when the tops are frozen, cut them to the ground, lift with a little dirt, place in a dry cellar, and start into growth in shallow boxes about March. This applies to Cannas and Dahlias. Can be transplanted to open ground in May. Some prefer fall planting of shrubs and perennials. These are all kept in cold storage and can be successfully planted either season. ORANGE AND LEMON—Grand pot or tub plant. They delight in good, rich soil, plenty of root room, good drainage, and about 55 to 65 degrees temperature in winter. Plunge pot and all in open ground in summer. Keep well watered, give full sun- shine, and bring into the house on the approach of frost. _. under ground, and set in direct light at once.

English Ivy must be protected by covering of rough litter if you wish to leave it in open ground ‘north of the Ohio River. De- lights in a protected position. es BULBS—Calla Lily, Amaryllis, Milk and Wine Lily, Spider Lily, - all require good, rich soil, good drainage, and f full’ sunshine. Ss The soil should be about one-half well-rotted manure or leai mould. Pile up your leaves in the fall, throw two or three shovi degrees temperature. They gain new vitality by planting out of doors in summer, lifting in the fall, allowing bulbs to d then place in pots for winter. Early fall is preferable. HEDGE PLANTS—The following are used for hedges and di vision lines: Atheas, Spireas, Philadelphus, Barberry, Privet, Hydrangea Grandiflora and Hills of Snow. Son plant hedges i in double rows. Should be 16 inches apart in the row, the rows eight inches apart. Start first row at the stake second row eight inches from the stake. Ornamental Box is used for borders of walks and beds in the South. Hardy north with proteetion. The other Hedge Plants can be planted three or four feet apart, owing to their habit of growth.

Figure out how many plants you will req You have more time than your florist has during the b season. ¥ Hyacinths, Tulip HOLLAND BULBS and others, such as Narcissus, etc., are all for fall planting either in open ground pots. Our limestone soil causes these bulbs to deteriorate, an it is better to buy them fresh each year. Bulbs forced in wate “a such as Hyacinths and Sacred Lily, should be thrown a’ after blooming. BULBS for blooming in the house must be potted in sandy so watered when dry, and kept in a dark closet until the tops ai about three or four inches above proung: The object is to g a pot full of roots. Bring the plant to the light, water tepid water, and you will have fine bloom. ¥ FREESIAS—Six or eight to a six-inch pot.
