A Satisfactory Beronia.

| In March secured four inch slip

rich dirt in a small can, says an Amer
/ lean Agriculturist writer After a few
days it began to grow and was soon
large enough to repot. This was care
fully done. the plant being removed to
can, quart size that was filled with
rich dirt In few weeks it outgrew
this can, and at the next reporting it
was put into a paint key. Charcoal
was put in the bottom, as in the cans,
and rich dirt from a decayed straw
pile was the potting material.
By June 26 it measured Is inches in
height. IS inches in width, had leaves
four inches in diameter and was load
ed with pure. waxy blossoms. The
leaves are pretty green, veined be-
meath with red, and the stems are red.
The leaves are smooth; hence it is an
easy plant to keep clean, and for us it
has been entirely free from insects.
The foliage is thick and healthy, so it
is a pretty plant when not in bloom.
There have also been four rooted slips
and three slips without roots taken
from the plant Now more rooted slips
could be taken without injury to the
