SAVING THE TENDER PLANTS
ceraniums and Others That Provide
Pretty Flowers Should es Care
fully Potted Till Spring.

Geraniums, heliotropes. coleus and
many other tender plants are likely
to be scarce next spring. Florists
have been obliged to get along with
half the fuel used last year. Many
have closed their greenhouses and:
plants next year may be scarce. All.
these can be taken up, potted and
stored in the house or cellar until
next spring.
The plants can be potted In tin cans
first knocking a hole or two in the
bottom for drainage. Boxes can be
used. packing the plants rather closely.
In good garden soil.
Most budding plants will survive
the winter II the soil In which they
are growing Is kept moist and the
plants kept In a temperature safely,
above freezing. Next year they can
be set out. soon filling the bare spots
that otherwise will look bad all sum-
mer.
