Examine Plants.

Pottcd plants should be. examined
occasionally to see whether or not
the plant requires repotung. This
is done by holding the hands over the
top Of the pot, iuverting plant and all,
tapping the edge Of the pot SO as to
loosen it, then lifting the pot Off This
cannot be done unless the soil is mod
cratcly moist If the bali of the
earth is completely covered with roots
the plant should be put in a slightly
larger pot with now pOtting soil
"firmed" about the old bah of earth
by 'firming" with the fingers, Then
wet thoroughly.
A housewife who desires n few
potted plants but does not possess the
regulation flower pots, may prepare
tin cans that will be quite satsfac-
tory A small hole should he made
in the bottom Of the can and piece
of broken crockery or a few stones
put in the bottom of the can before
the earth is added, in order TO give
the proper drainage. The stones or
crockery should be also used in the
regular flower pot.
Hanging baskets may be used adj
vantageously to make an indoor win
ter garden attractive. They should
be hung near light window.
Geraniums-lf geraniums are pot
ted so that the root growth is re-
stricted. and if they are kept fairly
dry they may be forced to bloom
during the winter Geraniums are
attractive in the ordinary window box
because Of their foliage alone. They
should not be placed in a window
box with the expectation that they
will bear flowers.
Ferns-Ferns as they come from
the florists prepared for indoor cul-
ture should be placed in a strong
light. though they grow well without
sunlight. They should be watered
sparingly but should be Kept moist at
all times. Improper watering, es-
pecially keeping the plant soaked or
permitting IL to get dry. is the found
alton Of most fern difficulties. 1t is
especially difficult not to overwater
when the fern is in n jardiniere,
where drainage is necessarily poor.
In spring and summer they will re-
uuire three times the water necessary
in fail and winter.
Weak Bath Helps.
It is we'll occasionally to put them
in the bathtub and give them a bath
with weak soap suds made from a
good grade Of soap. The soap must
be thoroughly rinsed off imme diately.
Great care must be exercised not to
injure the fronds as they are very

Those who do not have gardens
would do better to get pottlng soil
Of the nearest florist for their potted
plants. Good potting soil may be
prepared at home but it usually takes
considerable care and forcthought
Those willing to take the trouble may
prepare it by using one part compost,
one part good loam and one part
sand. The compost should be COW
manure and good turf rooted
together for a year and turned
two or three times in the interim.
Well decomposed leaf mould would
answer as a partial substitute for the
compost. One-twcntieth part bone
meal is a good addition TO the mix
ture If the loan is very heavy, con
tanning much clay its proportion
should be somewhat diminished If
the loan is light and sandy reduce
the amount of sand, or i'm some lo-
Calities omit 1t altogether.

CANAL OPEN NEXT WEEK
Panama Railroad Steamer to
Go Through Within Ten Days.

Panama, May 2.--Plans are being
matured under the instructions of Gov
ernor Goethals 10 put Panama Rail
road steamer through the canal within
ten days, with the approval of Secre-
tary Garrison. At the same time a
cargo steamer will go through, and
after that has occurred the canal will
be open for so much traffic as the work
on the Cucaracha slide viii permit.
Every effort IS being made to obtain
a sufficient depth Of water in front OF
the slide to permit the passage Of a
10,000-ton freight steamer Almost the
entire dredging force has been concen-
trated upon the slide in order 20 hasten
the completion Of the required depth
in the channel
The informal opening Of the canal at
much earlier date than had been an
ticipated is due to the fact that many
ships are being routed by way of Pan
anna because Of the interruption OF the
Tehuantepec railroad route.
Arrangements for the barge service
have been nearly completed by the
transportation department, which also
is making preparations for the passage
OF the first steamer.

Washington. May 1.-The DEPART
ment OF state formally confirmed the
announcement made in The Tribune OF
Friday that the United States, presi-
dent Huerta and General Carranza had
been requested TO send representatives
to the proposed peace conference. The
statement OF the Department OF State
reads as follows:
THE Mediators have delivered to thus
Government and are sending out 10
General Huerta and General Carranza
requests that Representatives be ap-
pointed to confer with tho Mediators."
There has been no dimlnution Of tho
assiduty with which the mediators
have devoted themselves TO their task
to-day, no marked optimism because
of any development and no great pessi-
mism because Carranza has thus far
declined TO subscribe TO an armistice or
truce.
The report that Huerta had broken
the armistice, or truce. by the shooting
of Federals at the Americans guarding
the waterworks at Vera cruz startled
and, TO some extent, discouraged the
mediators this evening. but when fuller
information regarding the incident ar
rived they were disposed 20 regard "
as an isolated case and not authorized
by Huerta.
