ESSENTIALS IN SOWING SEED
Heavy, Coarse Soil Will Never Pro-
duce Good ResuIts-Never Drench
Beds or Pots.

Moisture and temperature should be
carefully considered when sowing
flower seed. Do not use soil which
will not allow of perfect drainage and
at the same time hold moisture. Pure
sand and leaf mold. or a good potting
soil mixed with white sand, will give
a good soil for sowing seed.
Never mix manure in soil which Is
to be used for this purpose. Seed of
rhododendrons, kalmias and orchids
which produce very delicate growths
may be sown on live sphagnum moss.
Heavy, coarse soil will never produce
good results, as seeds usually require
a much lighter soil than the mature
plants.
Never drench your seed beds or
pots, as that will weaken even sound
and strong seeds. Water thoroughly
enough to moisten the soil thoroughly
as a moist surface with a dry subsoil
is an evil. Seeds should never be al
lowed to become dry after they have
| once started to sprout.
Good drainage is an essential point
A layer of broken pots placed in the
bottom of the pot or bed in which the
seeds are started will be found 6
great aid to drainage. Do not SOW
in deep boxes or pots, as the shallow
flats" require much less attention al
to drainage.

MISSOURI MULES-AND DOGS.

Long famous throughout the country
for its mules, Missouri is now to be-
come famous for its dogs, according to
plan which Harry B. Hawes of St.
Louis, president of the Mississippi
Valley Kennel Club, has proposed to
the secretary of the State Board of
Agriculture, 7. c. Wilson.
Mr.. Hawes' plan is this. On ac-
count of the ours and mongrels now
numerous all over the state, he would
have the state go into the dog rails
ing business and distribute dogs free
to the farmers of the state. All the
dogs would be collies and of good
breed.
Mr.. Hawes evidently intends that
the present dog population shall be
disposed of, but he does not propose
method. However he recommends
that the houn' dog made famous by one
of Missouri's favorite sons, be allowed
to remain in the state.
A collie dog, Mr.. Hawes explains,
if properly trained, is as useful about
a farm as a boy. 1t can take care of
live stock and do many other things.
With one of these dogs at each farm
house in the state, and the mongrels
all disposed of, Mr.. Hawes figures that
the state would become famous for its
dogs This fame would not only be a
credit to the state, it would be means
to an income, for people would come
to the state to purchase their dogs.
