To Raise Palms From Seeds.

To start palm seeds is an easy mat
ter. Place half dozen seeds in a six
inch pot. covering them so they Will be
about two inches below the surface.
They should then be we'll watered, and
the soil should be kept fairly moist con-
tinually until the little seedlings push
their way up. The soil should never be
allowed to dry out, nor should 1t be
kept soggy. Another good plan Is to
place all the seeds In a box of moist
sand and examine them every few
days. Those that burst and begin to
sprout may be planted in flat boxes two
or three inches apart in a good, rich.
sandy soil, or they may be potted II
well started in small pots.
1t should he borne in mind that the
embryo, or seed, leaves of palms are
usually entirely different in form from
the true. or character. leaves which
come later In the embryo leaves the
form is long and narrow, swordlike and
usually with no divisions. Robert X.
