them : sow them almost without any covering, and, lay °Or
the top some loose moss, which may be' kept damp ,
Dahlias in small pots should be shifted into &Lose of a 9-.0
larger at least ; for though not wanted to bloo-,n, the root al
be a better size for storing.
Look well after the ear-wigs, and do rot forget to stir the
surface of the earth a little near the ror,t, for it is a favourite
hiding-place.
We presume to guess that there will now be some hot dry
weather, and our gardening frietv:is had better be prepared.
Tie loosely some moss ovzr all newly-budded trees an
shrubs, if exposed to the !„.,r and sun.
Litter may be spre;:al over the ground occupied by Dahlia!'
previous to which title earth should be forked and well brokn,
except just among the roots.
Plant out 'ten-week Stocks, and other Annuals, for tile'
latest blooms.
