Camellias will do nothing if kept in heat

The Scarlet Gem carnation plants crow

The begonias of either the rex or the
Towering sorts are among the best of
house plants. While they have no need
of bright sunshine-in fact dislike it, vet a
bright place in other respects suits them.
Those who now turn their attention to
slipping the house plants should bear in
mind that the bouvardias can be increased
in this way only with the greatest difficult

essary to take up some roots the size OF a
coarse darning needle and larger, cut
them into pieces at inch or two long and
plant in light material covering with sand.
The pieces of root should be laid down.
Keep the pot or box containing the cut
tings in warm place. Until the shoots
appear light is not needed.
Sow Hollyhocks Now.-We mean IN
case some plants are wanted, and no pro-
vision was made for this by sowing the
seeds last summer at the usual time:
Seeds started early in this month will
make plants of nice size for planting out

soil, will grow rapidly and bloom at about
the ordinary time. We know of one sue
cessful flower grower who prefers treating
his hollyhocks thus as ANIMALS, 10 manag-

Scatter coal ashes under the current
shrubs.
Beet roots extend several feet from the
plants.
Look out for and remove the rings of
tent caterpller eggs which may now be
seen in the trees near the ends of the
twigs.
Make straw mats for hot-beds and
frames of size that each one will cover
one and a-halt sash, and to hang down
half foot over the bed at the top and
bottom.
Those who winter early cabbage plants
in frames must not forget that these need
plenty of air whenever the temperature is
above the thawing point, but in cold
weather the frames may remain close for
day together
Get into the orchard with pruning knife
and saw in mild weather, but don't over
do the pruning. Better cut too little than
too much. Weak and imperfect shoots
should come out as also such as cross each
other in close conjunction. Stunted trees
or branches may often be helped by Sc

Labels on Trees. -Many a branch of a
vigorous tree, and even many trees have
been killed or badly injured from stran-
guation by the simple cause of allowing
labels to remain year after year, without
loosenng the wires. Trees grow and the
parts enlarge while the label wires, neces-
sarily twisted tight on the branches when
trees leave the nursery, soon cut into the
bark. OF course the one way to prevent
all this is to replace all such old labels
with new ones, fastened with strong wires
with loops so large that years of growth
will not fill them out. This being small
job is easily neglected; there is no ex-
cuse for allowing it to remain undone,
when little labor applied in mild days
in winter can put it Alright. AS for labels
we prefer heavy well-painted ones of pine,
attached with No. l6 copper wire for per-
manent. Zinc labels are also excellent.

my wife was seventy three years old she was
troubled with very bad cough and it looked
as if she would die with consumption. She
would not call in doctor, but commenced
