HAVE FLOWERS IN THE HOUSE
UNTIL EASTER.

An abundant supply Cf flowers can
be had in every home from Thanks
giving until Easter at comparatively
small cost with no greater facilities
than exist in every ordinary dwelling
house.
Perhaps the most satisfactory bulbs
than can be grown in II sunny window
for winter flowers are Roman hya-
cinthS and narcisSi,
Plant the bulbs in shallow boxes or
pans having a depth of four or five
inches. The soil must be ordinarily
good garden soil. The bulbs should be
planted close together. 50 they almost
touch. They should be set SO that the
tops protrude slightly above the soil
when the potting is done Have the
pan or box extend fully an inch above
the soil TO allow for thorough wet
ting of the earth.
When they are pOtted and well wa
tered set in cool part of the cellar
Cover the boxes with bits of old bag
ging if the cellar is light. See that II
natural condition of moisture is main
tanned.
Bulbs that have been potted October
10 should be thoroughly rooted by De-
Ccmber 10 or even earlier, and they
can then be brought into the light Of
the living room and will he in bloom
for Christmas or New Years.
Plenty of water is necessary for the
bulbs brought into the living room. BY
having pan of bulbs ready to bring
from the cellar every ten days or so. n
succession of flowers can be had MI
through the winter.

Deep Flowing Best
For a deep, rich soil deep blowing
is therefore best, providing it is done
in the fall or does not render the soil
too loose and dry. For thin clay soils
subsoiling is better than very deep
blowing, because it does not turn the
compact clay to the surface, yet at
the same time it loosenS the soil to
Il good depth. The blowing should
not be ut the same depth from year

War THREATENS FLOWERS
Bv ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYSEN

horrors of war to the pretty hyaclnth

the interesting information that the
great European conflict is presenting
a serious menace to the chlel source
Of imported bulbs.
Private advices received in New
York from flower folk in Holland,
who cannot be considered as preJu-
diced or even interested in the larger
affairs of state. say that there is dan
ger Of having the bulb supply for the
next half century destroyed. Holland
has her army ready TO fight either
side. and she has a number OF issues
which might make her entry possible.
As Il first item of defense she plans
to flood all the lands in her dixie Sys-

NITROGEN FOR NORMAL SOILS
Its Purchase for Production of Staple
Farm Crops Not Recommended
by Doctor Hopkins.

Doctor Hopkins, the soil expert,
says: II cannot advise the purchase
of nitrogen or potassium for use on
normal soils for the production of the
staple farm crops, but | can advise
liberal use Of phosphorus and of
ground limestone where the soil is
sour and of homegrown" organic

is exposed to weathering, gradually
mingleS with surface soil and vege
table growth and the soil depth thus
becomes increased. 1t is well, there
fore, to pillow little deeper each year
for several successive seasons, and
then for one season to pillow at about
half the depth of the deepest blowing.
The pillow should be so adjusted that
it will turn all the soils and leave the
surface smooth. In every instance,
Spring-plowed land should be pulver-
lied the same day it is plowed.
Deep Cultivation.
Where heavy growth of clover or
weeds or a heavy application of ma
nure has been plowed under in the
fail, the land should be given, just pre-
vious TO planting, a cultivation as deep
as it was plowed. This deep cultiva-
ton mixes the humuS throughout the
soil and is of more value than any
cultivation the corn crop can be given.
1t is economical, because wider cult
yatOrs and more horses can be en-
ployed ger man than is possible after
the corn is planted.
As a general rule, corn should never
be planted before the seedbed is thor
oughly prepared. Planting in poorly
prepared Seedhed for the single pur-
pose of getting the seed in the ground
early rarely pays. With n well-pre-
pared seeded the cultivation of the
corn is, in sense, half done.

A deep Seedbed well supplied with
soil moisture and well drained makes
Il bic corn yield possible whether the
summer proves too dry or too wet. II
not well plowed, some lands are so
fmperyi0us that during several weeks
of rainy weather they remain dry be-
lew a depth of five or ten inches.
In many localities it is best to pillow
in the fall or several months before
planting, in order to enable the soil
to store a sufficient quantity of wa
ter TO produce a corn crop. Fall plow-
ing cannot be recommended for all
soils and localities, but it should be
more generally practiced than at pres
cnt. If Il cover crop or sod is turned
under in the autumn, decomposition
will increase the amount of plant food
available for the crop the next sum-
mer. This is true to some extent,
even though the sod is not turned I'M
der, inaSmuch us the simple loOsening
of the soil admits atmospheric oxygen
and increases chemical action on Vege-
table and mineral matter. Besides,
fall and winter blowing is one of the
best methods of combating grubworms,
and corn root-wormS, which are often
destructive TO corn

Flowing in Spring.

If blowing is done in the spring
shortly before planting time, it is nee
essary that the soil be in proper condi-
ton to pulverize readily. Disking land
in the spring before blowing is great
advantage. 1t makes the soil retain
moisture and keeps the land longer in
good blowing condition. 1t also pull
verzes the surface portion of the
furrow slice before it is turned under
out of reach of the harrow. Land
should never be plowed when too wet
to pulverize finely. However, plow-
ing may be sometimes done in the fall
when the ground is too dry, as winter
rains and freezing will pulverize the
Clods.
Spring plowed land should be har-
rowed the S9me day it is plowed. If
very dry. harrow both at noon and
night The moisture saved by harrow
ing before the ground has had time
to dry out is surprisingly great and, be-
sides saving moisture, it will often put
soil in better filth than two harrow
| ings after the clods have dried. The
| change also makes the work less tir-
| ing to the teams, which alone offsets
the trouble caused by changing tools
When the soil Is loose to sufficient
| depth corn roots penetrate in album
dance to a depth of three or four feet
The growing of clover and deep-root-
ed plants preceding corn loosenS the
| soil for the corn, and Subsoiling is
profitable practiced with some soils TO
enable the corn roots to use the soil
to greater depths and to increase the
notwithstanding capacity of the soil
as well. As the crop on an acre is linz
tied to 1850 square feet of surface,
| 1t should be enabled to use the acre
to great depth. In compact soils

Fall Flowing Beneficial.

The fall blowing enables the rain
fan better to penetrate the subSoil,
thus relieving the surface of its eX-
cess of moisture. IN the spring fall
plowed fields usually contain much
more moisture, but at the same time
have a drier surface than fields which
remain unplowed until spring. In sec
tons where there is much rain dur
ing the winter, it is better not TO har-
row the fall-plowed land in the au-
tumn. This is especially true of fine
clay soils that run together and pack
readily. In comparative tests of fan
and spring blowing, preceding Il dry
summer. the fall-plOwed fields have
generally yielded better The same Is
true of subsoilng. Deep spring plow-
ing and spring subsoiling are likely to
result in diminished crops, especially
if done after the spring rains. The
looSening of the soil to great depths at
this time admits air and facilitates the
loss of soil moisture ii also interrupts
the capillarity, so that moisture is not
as readily drawn from greater depths,
and during dry summer there is not
enough available moisture to support
good crop.
