Window boxes should be made
stronb and durable. Bach box should
be nine or ten inches wide at top
and bottom, seven or eight .inches
deep inside measurements, ot a suit-
able length to fit the window, not
over four feet in length, made of
one -inch dressed lumber, and when
finished, Painted a dull green color.
Half-inch holes should be bored
about six inches apart through the
bottom of the bole for drainage ilur-
peses, Verandah boxes should be
about the some measurements, A
large iron screw eye, or iron staple,
should be put at each top, outside
(front) Corner of the window boxes.
A strong piece of wire should be
attaelted to these long enough to at-
tact( to another screw eye or staple
placed in the window frame about a
'root higher up than top et box, so
that the box can be fastened securely
in position, Boxes and barrels may
be. made more artistic and rustic
looking by nailing moss and fungi,'
esvered bark of native trees, on the
()
tslde, This not onlya adds to their
t:activeness but also helps to keep
the plants moist and cool at the
roots in summer time. The bark
from. Basswood, Elm, Cedar or Birgit
trees will be :round suitable, By the
exercise of a little taste and' orig-
tuality, very pretty boxes can be
made at slight cost. Verandah boxes
and rustic stands can be made in
something •the , One
of t 1* same way,
the prettiest rustle stands I have
ever seen was made iron the lower !,
halt ot a sugar barrel, reinforced by
a thtcltnesa of soap -inch board nailed
on the bottom of the barrel outside
to strenthen it, with three-quarter
Inch holes bored through for drain-
age purposes,
)ranging Baskets.
Wire hanging baskets lined with
green moss or sphagnum moss are
very effective, especially for a sunny
position. The clay baskets dry out
very qulekly and are better suited
for a shady position than a sunny
one.
Soil.
The soil for window boxes must
be rich in fertilizers if the best re-
sults are to be obtained. It is a
good plan to put an inch in depth
of well rotted barnyard manure, or
dry cow manure, near the bottom of
each box, before filling it up with the
Prepared soil. About an inch in
depth of soil may be placed in the
bottom of the box first, and the fer-
tilizers named spread over it, or
about half a pound of bone meal may
be used as p. substitute for the first
named fertilizers. These fertilizers
will help sustain plant growth late
in the season when the soil has be-
come exhausted, One part sand, ono
part leaf mould (black soil from the
bush) and seven or eight parts of
1isrot lvtmy soil well mixed, with two
;grits et either of the fertilizers nam-
ed adcicd, wilI'inake a good soil for
;rindoy boxes, rustic stands, etc. -
The best time to fill window boxes
is ::ren they are to be placed in posi-
ti:an toward the end of May or early
in June. The boxes may be set in
position and well secured, betore they
are filled with soil or plants, as they
are heavy and difficult to set in posi-
tion when filled.
Arrangement of Plants.
Tall growing plants should be
placed at the back of the box nearest
the window. Dwarf plants and trail-
ing plants should then be put around
the front and ends of the box. Any
space between these in the centre of
the box should be filled with medium
height plants. It is a good plan to
first fill the box nearly level full with
with soil, then stand the plants on
the surface where they are to be
planted finally, By doing this the
plants can be changed about 'and re-
arranged, and a good idea of the
arrangement and effect desired can
be obtained before finally planting
them. For color effect, for instance,
too much of any one color, especially
the heavier colors, 'should not be
placed iii 'any one part- of the box,
whether of dwarf or tall plants, as
there would not then be a proper
balance of color, something that
would detract from the effect con-
siderably. By standing the plants on
the surface of the soil before plant-
ing as mentioned, any change requir-
ed can be easily made. Use bright
colored plants mainly whether of
foliage or flowers, .and if possible,
make use of good sized plants. Boxes
filled as described at the time of
setting out, will do Watch better than
boxes filled indoors early in the sea-
son. Boxes filled very early indoors,
often get shabby as soon as they are
set out, and sometimes become posi-
tively unsightly before the summer
season is half over.e-
Care of Boxes.
Window boxes, etc., require cop-
ious and frequent waterings every
day; or at least every second day;
especially during hot weather. The
soil should be well soaked with water
when watering the boxes: Toward
the end of the season, in July and
August, some liquid fertilizer may
be siren the plants. -The late Wra.
