PLAN FOR FUTURE BEAUTY
BY LIMA r. ROSE,

We who grow plants in our rooms
do so for the beauty of their foliage,
flowers, or both, and get the pleasure
from them to just the degree that we
can bring them to their utmost perfec-
ton. To attain this, with plants of
any kind) one must know their char
acteristics and requirements and con-
slider whether available conditions in
the home are adapted to the plants
desired.
If plant standing in the open beds,
CT in sunny southern windows is max
ing a grand showing of flowers, or
brilliantly colored foliage do not get
one like it expecting the same results
unless it can have similar conditions
The same results cannot be secured if
the plant is put into a shaded or north
ern window.
On the other hand primulas and 9th
er plants that produce perfect flowers
in cool, semi-shaded rooms will not
prove satisfactory in a place adapted
to those needing more tropical condi-
tions. The plant-lover who expects to
have all sorts of plants grow and bloom
in the same window will certainly be
found wondering why some of them do
not come up to expectation.
Even the texture of the foliage needs
/ to be taken into consideration for
| rough-leaved plants, that are injured
/ by frequent wastdugs have no chance
to develop beautiful foliage in a room
where furniture needs dusting every
| day.

are vastly more beautiful than twice

crowded into the space.
The question as to whether plant:
should be turned or not is frequentl!
asked, and some people say: "Oh, dom
turn them, they will not bloom" anC
so on. After years of working anon,
plants hold this opinion on the sub
ject: Plants grown solely for thei
beauty as seen from the outside will
serve the purpose better if neve

drawn towards the glass, but ordinar

Very often plants are bedded ou
for the summer and then pOtted fo

as often the pOtting is delayed unit
the plants must be taken in or frozen
and the result is lot of plants tha

Tests Gas on Dous.

Stray dogs are being used by q pro-
fessor in Yale medical school to test
out a new gas, which he believes to be
more deadly than the chlorine com
bination used by the Germans. He ad-
mits he is working on the poison gas
problem, but says all further informa-
ton must come from the war depart
ment, with which he is in daily COM
munication. Because Of the wide.
spread epidemic of rabies in the. state
of Connecticut, notes an exchange, the
commissioner on domestic animals, has
placed a quarantine in all the towns
west of the Connecticut river and or
dered that all stray dogs be impound
ed, and If no claim of ownership Is
made within 72 hours they are to bt
sent to the professor.

Remunerative Bite.

The old soldier was showing how
fields are won.
"The worst time I ever had" he said,
"was when we were besieged. We only
had one bite a day for a fortnight, and
that was horse flesh"
The young soldier sitting at the 9TH
er side of the taproom Clipped in:
81 remember living for a month on
one bite, and that was out of my own
leg"
The old soldier flushed.
81 don't believe it!' he said, angrily.

the young man. "a dog took mouth
full out of my leg and the compensa-
ton kept me like a lord for four

raj branches furnish the blooming
points on geraniums and most flower
ing plants, and the more Of them that
can be forced to start, the more f1ow-
ers one has during the winter.
DO not select plants that have bloom
ed profusely during the summer for
it is against nature to expect them to
keep it up during the winter. Above
all, after deciding which plants shall
be potted for the winter display, keep
all the buds pinched out-do not let
single blossom develop until the plants
are established in winter quarters.
Do not leave plants in the bed until
forced by cold weather to take them
| in. Plan to pot them while the wealth
er will permit having the house open,
making the change a gradual one, for
plants lifted and taken at once into
closed fre-heated rooms must show the
effect of the treatment.
Another thing to be considered is
this: Plants growing in the open
ground make a rOOt-growth that very
soon goes far beyond the limits of an
ordinary pot, or tub. To crowd these
roots into a pot too small for them Is
to bruise them and cause decay. The
better way, by far, is to cut down all
around the plants with a sharp spade
or knife, ten days or two weeks be-
fore the plant is to be potted. The
sharp, clean cut heals quickly and If
the soil is well watered (soaked) be-
fore attempting to lift the plant, one
gets complete ball of sound roots
well covered with soil that goes into
winter quarters with very little evi.
dence of having been disturbed.
Each of these points taken singly
will seem little thing, but each has
q decided bearing on the beauty of the
mid-winter floral display, and for that
reason each is, in reality, an import
ant point.

Easten Helmets at Back

Soup-plate helmets worn by British
troops in France are to be adopted by
the United States troops in preference
to the French pattern of protective
headgear. The wearing of these tin
hats, by the way, though it has proved
of great value against certain species
of attacks, shrapnel, for instance, is
not entirely without its dangers, writes
a war correspondent. When they were
first introduced the men naturally put
the strap under the chin, but so many
were killed by having their necks bro
ken by bits of shell hitting the helmet
in front that the order was made to
fasten itiat the back of the head.
