DWARF TREES EASILY GROWN
Secret, Long Known Only to the Jap
anese, Has Become Matter of
General knowledge.

For many centuries the japanese
have closely guarded the secret of
growing miniature trees. Indeed, says
the Youths Companion, until recent
ly they did not allow the trees to be
taken out of the country; wealthy
people keep them as art treasures.
Now, in America, dwarf trees bring a
good price and are used as house
plants and table decorations. By fol-
lowing the plan here described almost
any one can raise diminutive trees
with little trouble.
Get a few large, thick-skinned or.
anges and halve them. Remove the
pulp and cover the outside of the skins
with thick shellac. That will keep the
skin from shrivelling. Fill the skins
with fine, rich soil, and plant therein
seed of whatever tree you wish to
raise-or rather two or three seeds.
to insure at least one good specimen.
Make a stand of some kind so that
the growing tree can be kept in an
upright position and set the plants
where they will get plenty of sun,
but do not keep them in room that
is likely to become overheated. Water
them regularly, but not too profusely
| After a time the roots will begin tc
come through the orange peel. Wher
