wonderful skill and sagacity. He, like
thousands of others who have passed through
similar experiences, realize that their escape
from death, or life of miserable invalid,

AYERS PILLS cure Indigestion and Headache
A VETERANS STORY.

in advance, plan for them in advance.
An easy way to do this is to use the
flowers of hardy shrubs. For in
stance, you wish flowers on Washing
toms birthday. In the last week of
January cut some long stems of the
common Forsythia. Fill a tall vase
with water and place the dry and
leafess stems in the water Keep
them in warm room and when the
buds begin to swell place the vase
and all in a sunny window. Occa
sionally take the vase to the sink and
sprinkle the stems with water. If
the flowers appear to come out too
rapidly and ahead of time, keep them
in cooler-but not cold-place. #
they appear to be behind time in the
last week, place them in a warmer
place to hurry them forward. Once
a week add ten drops of household
ammonia to the water, or ten drops
to quart of water A number of the
early Towering shrubs can be forced
into bloom in this way, but require
longer time to bring the flowers

at the top to water well. Set the pot
in shady place, where the direct
rays of the sun will not fall on it,
and in from three to five days it will
begin to grow. Then you can bring
it nearer to the sun. At the end of
two weeks you can put it almost any
where and it will grow if given plen-
ty of water daily. After the plant is
well started, / pinch it to make it
spread same as for outdoor culture.
After the plant has gotten strong
and well-rooted, I get pot the size
l wish Casually eight or ten inches).
to which | carefully remove the
plant. I do this as early as possible,
SO as to give plenty of time to fill the
larger pot with roots. AS the buds
begin to appear, I take off the small
er ones This is done according to
the size and strength of the plant.
While the flowers are not so enOr
mously large, there will be many
more of them.-Mrs. NJ. C. M'Culloch,
Texas, in How to Grow Flowers.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-01-27
Shrubs and Their Pruning.

People often complain that their
shrubs fail to bloom, when the fault
is entirely due to defective pruning.
Shrubs which bloom early in the
spring form their blossom buds the
year before; necessarily, if such are
pruned severely in the fall, these
Towering buds are cut away, and the
owner complains that the shrubs
''fail to flower" The rule for all ear
ly blooming shrubs is to do any
pruning Immediately after their
blooming is over; this encourages
the growth of new shoots, which
have time to mature and form flow
ering buds during the seasons
growth. 1t does not follow, by any
means, that severe pruning is need
ed; dead wood and weak shoots may
be removed, and, if necessary, the
shrub thinned a little to admit plen-
ty of light and air. Other shrubs,
which bloom late in the summer
from the current seasons growth,
may be pruned either early in the
spring, so that there is time to pro-
duce Towering wood, or late in the
fall, after blooming is over.
In addition to pruning for bloom,
we also prune to produce well-ripen-
ed wood, or to gain symmetry OF
growth. For these purposes, we may
prune all summer long, without in
jury to the plant Indeed, some
shrubs and vines lose so much sap
when cut in spring that they will
''bleed" to death; such subjects may
be pruned in the summer with i'm
punity. The hardy Japanese vine,
Akebia quinata, is an example Of
this; if cut in spring it pours out its
sap like water, but it may be pruned
with perfect safety in summer Sum-
mer pruning is also found useful dur
ing a very wet season; it prevents
soft, sappy growth, which would
otherwise suffer as soon as cold
weather sets in. Shrubs ordinarily
