ton is still a partial secret. The
plants are treated at first in the Jrop-

in a healthy condition Some kind Of
a solution is applied 10 the roots,
which rcts them quickly. They are
then shipped 10 the factory in Germa-
ny and the leaves are treated also in
some solution which preserves them.
The stems are then placed in plaster

delicate flowers, and it is believed
that they will be successful Some Of

Jne illusion. Not only are these per
petuated plants now used largely in
the decoration of hotels, theaters and
bathrooms, but they are coming into
general use in private residences.
They are not affected by conditions
which injure the live plants and flow
ers. The temperature does not hurt
them, nor do they require watering.
In climates Where the cold weather
quickly destroys delicate plants and
flowers, the cost of decorating with
them is large, and calls for experience
and skill. The majority of people can
not afford to keep greenhouses, or 10
warm the rooms OF their houses so as
to keep an even temperature. The use

enables even the poorest to rival the
richest in decorations.
The business in these plants has al

and will increase enormously. AL

partial secret, it will not remain so
| for any length of time. AS the pro-
| cess is a chemical one. there are
scores of skilled and inventive chem
lists who will experiment in searching
for the correct process, and some of
| them will discover it.

plants and flowers will work a revo-
luton in the decorations of homes. 1t
