some bloom the first year, After

Wick-fed pots are not a cure
all because plants require diff
ferent amounts of water at
different seasons in different
rooms. at different stages of
growth. But the wick is of the
same size and consequently de-
livers the same amount of
moisture. Because of the way
the soil is ground-it is too
fine-I suspect that your Afri-
can violets suffer from root rot.
Use a coarser mixture and wa
ter as needed from the top.
The spotting may be due to
disease or to droplets on the
foliage of plants in the SUM-

I suggest you transplant the
rose cuttings to a bed protect
ed from strong winds and WIN
ter sun. The plants are too
small and do not have too
much substance, but it is very
difficult to carry them over
winter satisfactorily in the
house. A cold frame would be
ideal for the first winter if one
is available to you.-W. H. Y.

The standard rose food will
tend to produce division of the
bulbs and several small blooms
rather than the one large strong
bloom which We associate with
freshly imported Dutch bulbs.
This should not be too detri-
mental unless you wish TO pro-
duce show-quality bloom,-W.

You have to have heat before
you get cool with this fan. A
regular kerosene lamp furnishes
the power. Now in the Henry
Ford Museum, Dearborn, Mich,
it uses a hot air engine. a type
developed by John Ericsson,
builder Of the Civil War Mont
tor. The lamp heats the cylinder
head, expands the closed air and
forces the piston away from the
heated end. This turns the
crank, connected to the fan
blades. The alternate expansion
and contraction of the air as il
is heated and cooled, continues
TO drive the fan. Used from the
post-Civil War period until re-
placed by electric fans early in
the twentieth century, II came
