Gardeners Nook
BY GARDEN CLUB EDITOR
The Care of a Fern.

The most frequent reason for the
drying up of fern fronds is that they
are placed in windows, and the win
dows are frequently opened. Ferns
will not stand cold draughts any bet
ter than people can. Keep for your
ferns windows that do not need to
be opened.
Another reason for ferns being
spoiled is that the roots are watered.
but not the leaves. Every day the
leaves should be lightly brushed with
luke-warm water, soft baby's hair
brush being used for this purpose.
The roots need very little moisture if
they are in good soil. Ferns thus
treated will flourish in a living room,
even when gas is used.
