AFRICAN VIOLET
INFORMATION. 81.

from w. E. J. G.. Alexandria,
To Mrs. A. D.. Washington: 1t is
conceded that frequent fertiliza-
ton of African violets set for root
ing is not necessary as they can be
rooted successfully in glass of
plain water. On the other hand,
too frequent use of fertilizers at
this stage of growth may cause
burnings of the young and tender
roots and plantlets.
Fertilizers should be used only
when the plants are established in
definite stages of growth. At this
time they can be used in liquid
form every two weeks provided the
solution is not too strong. one tea
spoon of a balanced fertilizer per
gallon of water. Weak fertilizers
regularly applied are of much
more benefit than a strong appli-
cation used only once.
To Mrs. G. I. P. Washington:
Your tiny white bugs in the saucer
containing your pot of African vio-
lets are commonly called Spring
tails" They do not attack the
plants nor cause them harm in
any. way but live on the decaying
organic matter in the soil. They
go through two stages of growth,
1st sort of miniature worm that
you will notice swimming" in the
water of the saucer and finally the
adult that always seems to manage
to keep just above the water line.
Their only harm is their unsightli-
ness.
There is no known or definite
control for these insects but some
help is afforded by occasionally
adding a teaspoon of "clorox" to
a gallon of warm water and Use
this solution to water the plant
from the bottom. This small
amount Of clorox does not injure

taste. Remember, that will be a
wee bit sweeter after baking, if
you bake it. or after cooling If
you cook the sauce and refrigerate
the pie. If you cook the sauce,
add the saccharin after the cook
ing.
don't quite remember the ex-
act pumpkin recipe. but I think
If You follow my pumpkin pie
recipe. and omit the sugar, it will
turn out all right. I think this
also takes about 4 half grain tab
lets of Saccharin. Remember to
deduct from the amount of milk
in the recipe the amount of water
you use to dissolve the saccharin.
I have found that the pumpkin
pie will take quite a bit of sac
charm to sweaten it, and If you
like yours rather spicy you don t
have too worry too much about
getting a saccharin taste since the
spices cover it up.
One thing I forgot to mention
about the lemon meringue pie is
when beating the egg whites for
the meringue. I add, at intervals,
"a teaspoon of cellu sugarless
sweetener and u teaspoon vanilla.
