Lobelias, alyssum, can be increased
by the thousands in this way.
Provided there is a good stock OF
plants on hand, March is soon enough
to commence propagating.
Early In February dahlia tubers, of
which large stock are required, may
be brought into the propagating house.
Placed on the stage, partly burying the
tubers in leaf mold, plenty of shoots
will soon push out. When these are
about three inches In length they
sh1uld be taken off with slight heel,
and If inserted In sand bed they will
soon root.
Another method successfully adapt
ed for roofing dahllas is to make up a
hotbed yard in height, place frame
on this and plunge the pots OF cut
tings where there Is a nice bottom
heat.

quired should be made and the num-

may save much trouble when tho time
comes for planting out.

can't operation from March onward.
Considerable forethought and know
ledge of the work are necessary to OBJ

and in sufficient numbers when the
time for planting out arrives.
Although decried by some, the scar

ers, especially since the introduction
of so many beautiful varieties.
Cuttings of the varieties of which
the numbers are short can be inserted
now. These may be obtained from the

PLANT TREES AND SHRUBBERY

II you are planning to plant orna-
mental trees and shrubs, plant In
groups, always leaving an open space
for grass.
Cut-leafed birch is a favorite tree
for planting on the home ground. 1t
is pyramidal in shape, with dropping
branches.
The japanese naples are very beau
tiful, small trees in bush form with
vivid coloring of cut leaves.
Many shrubs are more beautiful in
foliage than in flower, and some of
Them carry their fruits through the
winter in bright colors.
In setting trees or shrubs, make
hole wide enough so that the roots can
be spread out, avoiding twisting and
crowdlng as much az possible. Work
the soil in about the roots, leaving no
spaces, and packing firmly.
Avoid planting trees between the
house and the street In such manner
as to hide the view from the windows
and doors. To Obstruct the outlook is
very annoying 20 those confined to the
house. Trees and shrubhery should be
placed so as to form u background or
setting for the dwelling.-E. V. b.

VIII Build Rusnlan Canal

The project for the construction and
equipment Of a Volga-D Don canal, as
designed by the Russian minister Of
ways and communications. has been
approved by the government. The pro-
jected canal Will play an Important
part In the economic development Of
southeastern Russia and 81 the volga
and Don basins. Grain from Tsarit-
sin and timber and ore from the Trails
will thereby obtain direct outlet TO
the ports OF the Sea n Azuf aud
thence to the Black sea. Moreover,
the canal will make It possible to sup
ply coal 10 all the chief cities and In
dustrial centers Of the Yolga and sur
rounding country from the rich coal
district OF the Donetz basin.
