Hospital for Sick Plants.

A hospital under the care of Prof.
B. T. Galloway, chief of the division
of vegetable pathology, has been es-
tablished by the Department of Agri-
culture of the nited States govern
ment for the trea tment of sick plants.
Diseases affecting plants and vegeta-
bles, as we'll as remedies, are investi-
gated. The work will not only benefit
farmers, but all lovers of flowers. A
violet-plant was placed under a glass
jar, where it was provided with only
poor ventilation. Germs of a disease
known to be injurious to this plant
were mixed with water and sprayed
upon it. Soon large yellow spots ap-
peared upon the leaves. After the jar
was removed, the patient rapidly re-
covered showing that the germs would
have had no effect had the air in
which the plant grew been fresh. The
plants in row of young corn are Civ
en- water in different quantities, mix
ed with certain proportions of salts as
found in natural soil. When certain
strengths of salts are added, the
little mouths of the hairlike tubes
of the roots, through which the plants
drink, become so badly pucl<ered that
the plants starve. Plants growing in
salt-marshes and by the seaside are
supplied with larger mouths. By test
ing the amount of salt in his soil, the
farmer can ascertain how healthy his
corn is likely to be. Professor Gallo
way is awaiting results from some
very interesting experiments with the
germs of wheat-rust.

Ornamentals for Florida.

There are three very common and
widespread errors made in planting
that thrust themselves on our atten-
ton and demand lessening.
1. New places cleared of every YES
tige of plant life by contract.
g. Planting moisture-loving trees
and shrubs on dry, thirsty soil, and
vice versa.
3. Trying to get quick results in
setting large stock at unsuitable
times of the year.
We have all noticed these three mis-
takes frequently and perhaps are to
blame for one or more of them our
selves. By all means every piece Of
land selected for a home place or a
garden of shrubs, should be
examined carefully; and all choice
specimens of trees, shrubs, or plants
marked for reserve. Shade trees are
necessary in our warm climate, and
the best native oaks, bays and other
giving CIOSNo AOoIAA OAA oe'NAA
land will be far better than many
which would be set later. On our own
two lawns are magnificent hickories,
oaks and cabbage palmettoes from IS
to 100 years old already grown for
us without waiting. Some of our
neighbors on same kind of land cut
off everything before building their
houses and now are nursing small
and sickly trees where giants former
1y stood. A judicious thinning out,
is, of course, necessary, if the trees
are crowded too thickly, to allow
more perfect forms and artistic after
effect.
[ have tried growing plants that
naturally grew in water, or in moist
spots, on dry land, and occasionally
with partial success, but to do the
. best, we must set plants on suitable
soil and try to follow natures ways.

and believe Florida people are more
alive to this fact than they were be-
fore our two '95 freezes.
We have been trying ST. Lucie grass
on part of one of our lawns, and find
it an excellent lawn grass. 1t is some
what coarser than Bermuda, but SINH
lar in habits of growth. 1t is more
easily eradicated, however, and
thrives in both partially shady and
sunny situations. A wide range as to
moisture can be allowed also and wa
tering is unnecessary, except on the
highest and driest white sand. If one
commences watering it has to be kept
up continually, as the roots are only
on the surface; if on the contrary no
water is given, the grass roots pene-
trate farther and resist drouth. Clip
are best left on the surface as they
form a mulch and in our cases we
have found it satisfactory. We grow
ST. Augustine grass and find it I'M
equalled for very shady spots; it re-
quires less cutting than St. Lucie or
Bermuda, and holds less dew, thereby
being drier and preferred by many.
By all means grass of some good
variety should be planted around
10
an area is available, as it covers the
bare sand, reduces temperature, and
is beautiful if kept trimmed. The
most beautiful and artistic boundary
for a lawn is a we'll kept hedge, yet
there is scarcely a good hedge of any
sort known in Florida. Why we do
not see them is a mystery to me, as
we can grow SO many choice plants
in hedges here easily. Among the best
arbor vitae, European and Downy
myrtles, Cape Jessamines, Oleander,
| Privet, Carolina laurel cherry, various
| hollies and so on. For defensive
hedges Citrus trifoliata, the hardy
trifoliate orange lis most excellent,
also Paliurus aculeatus, the Christ
thorn of Italy. Both are very thorny,
hardy and of easy growth. Clipping
is necessary twice each year at first
to keep the hedge in good form.
Hedges of roses are handsome when
kept up, but require different treat
ment than upright growing shrubs.
We have never had much experience
a really good one in South Florida

tural Society.

would thrive wonderfully with lit
lie care. The opposite is probably
just as frequent, the heavy summer
rains scalding or drowning speci-
mems on low land, that require per
feet drainage and dry top soil.
The third mistake is most often
made by hotels and land companies
who try to turn barran waste into
a park or pleasure ground. ''Haste
makes waste we will recall when we
think of many such attempts as this
Just for an instance, [ will mention
the Tampa Bay Hotel where thou
sands of dollars have spent in vain
in transplanting immense palmettoes
orange trees, etc., which are now
only a memory. [ do not say that
these large trees cannot be moved
successfully, but do say emphatical
ly, that transplanting must be done
at a proper time. Oaks will not live
if set after they commence thei1
spring growth, and all such trees
should be moved early, preferably in
December, so that root growth can
be made before warm weather begins
In setting evergreens less cutting is
necessary if leaves are clipped off
Magnolias, bays and loquats are
prominent examples that should have
every leaf removed in transplanting
Cutting to a good form and taking
out small branches must be done with
all trees and shrubs that require
training.
There are five other points I will
touch ON that are pertinent to this
subject. Tropical plants that sprout
up readily after freezes. Ease in pro
tecting plants by banking with soil
Setting tender plants deeply to en-
sure safety to adventitious buds dur
ing freezing weather. Native trees a.
rule are better for shade than ex
otto; and lawns and bordering he'd
ges.
Among the plants that come uI
readily again after being frozen are
Acalypha, Allamanda, Alocasia, Alpi
MIA, Bauhinia, Bignonia, Bougainvil
lea, Caesalpinia, Cestrum, Cleroden
dron, Galphimia, Golfusia, Habrotha
mus, Hamelia, Hedychium, Heliconia
Hibiscus, IXora, Jacaranda, Jasmi
mum, Justicia, Meyenia, Murraya, Ne
rum, Plumbago, Poinsettia, Taber
naemontana, Thevetia, Thunbergis
and hundreds of others less known
This list can be indefinitely extended
by following the next two sugges
tions: that of setting tender plants
deeply, and banking slightly just be
fore cool weather. In setting out any
plant from a flower pot, it should bt
set deep enough to allow new roots
to form above the ball of soil and tt
keep this ball down in moist earth
After being frozen to the natural lev
ell, such plants will throw up sprout:
from adventitious buds that were
below the danger line.
AS to my statement in regard tx
native trees being better than exotic
[ will ask where are the thousands O.

that keeping hens paid. Since
January 1st, of this year, he has
sold 197 dozen of eggs for which
he received nearly 500, and sold
besides S12.85 worth of chickens.
The cost of keeping these hens
was but trifie. This is worthy OF
