GROWING VIoLETs.-A correspond
ent of the Gardeners Monthly gives
the following hints, which will be read
with interest by the many admirers Of
this beautiful flower:
In former years, when brought to the
house from the coal pits TO flower, they
were placed at once in the sitting>rooG
window, where We had regular tenn.
peratnre of about 60 degrees but the
stalks were always slender and flower
rather small. Thinking it was too hot,
/ kept them other years in cooler room
where the heat might perhaps not range
over between 44o and $50, and the re-
suit has been much healthier looking
plant and finer foliage. Besides this,
they were not much behind what
have had in warmer places in other
years am sure they want very little
heat to do well. Another fact. have
learned that manure water made
of rotten wood is capital fertilizer for
them. Once | thought as shady places
were the natural places where violets
grow, rotten wood would be good thiag
in the soil, but they sometimes get sick
in it; but the liquid Of stepped wood
does not seem TO have this effect; on the
other hand, lively green is the result
We never water them except when
they show signs of dying; in our room
this is about twice a week. This may
mot be new, but it 10 true.
