watering Window Plants.

Germantown Telegraph.
There is nothing that seems to bother more
those who would grow window flowers, than
how often to water them. 1t is an exceedingly
simple thing to those who have had experience,
though 50 mysterious n thing to those who
have had none. When the skilled gardener IS
asked for advice he says: "water only when
the plants need It," but this tells the inquirer
nothing. There still remains to be understood
how to tell when plants need water. After all
this is a species OF knowledge that cannot well
be taught by another. 1t has TO be learned
from experience. The good plant cultivator
tells from the color OF the earth; but even this
Is relative term. There Is dark
soil and there Is light soil but all
soils are darker when they are wet than
when dry. One can soon learn this by ex-
perimenting little, and can soon tell whether
the earth Is dry or wet by the eye or finger
alone. III II Is wet, II of course wants no more
water; IL much lighter than Its usual color,
the earth Is dry and needs some. 1t is an ex-
to learn; to those who cannot teach themselve s
1t is hopeless task. There is one hint that
we may give that may be OF value. If the
earth never gets dry, the plants are not In
good condition. Something Is wrong. 1t Is
the active, growing, working roots that take
the moisture out OF the earth. II Is q sign of
good health for the plant to want frequent
watering. As we have already said, the color
OF the soil, as compared to what 1t Is when
wet, Will tell whether 1t wants water or not.
