,. Cuttings of the fichus will not start
well without bottom heat. Better buy a
young plant.
Moles, so it is said, will not remain
long where the castor oil plant (Ricin-

Lavender is grown like any ordinary
garden plant. You can procure seed
OF any dealer in flower seeds.
l., Roses do best in a somewhat heavy
r soil containing considerable clay. Car
nations are generally increased by cut
tings or by lavcring.
Fertilizer for Roses.-Use old, rotted
cow manure on the roses in your gar
den. Use it literally, digging it in well
about the roots.
Tulips and hyacinths need not be re-
moved to new beds each year. An
nuals can be grown in the same bed in
summer without injury.
Old Bulbs.J-It is not advisable to
keep bulbs which have been forced in
the house for a second crop of flowers.
Get fresh bulbs each year.
Peony plants must become perfectly
established before flowers can be cX-
pectcd from them. Any disturbance of
the roots is not recovered from imme-
diately.--Ladies' Home Journal.

Pay Any Debts of Semi
Centennial.

Madison, Wis, Oct 30.-[Special. !
Friday evening the executive committee
IF the State Historical society met and
formally voted to lend aid and influence
Of the society's name in furthering the

dition of our forests, which will be used

ture The other will be by Mr.. Buckley
