When the soil begins to get dry and powdery on the sur- face, or when the pot is tapped with the knuckles or a knife handle and it emits a ringing sound, the plant requires water. Give sufficient water so that it runsout through the bot- tom of the pot. Water plants in the morning in cold weather, not at night. Use tepid rain water, or water that has been exposed to air and siin for a day or two, if possible. The water should be lukewarm, about 56 to 60 degrees F. in winter. - Humidity in the atmosphere is one of the main requirements to be successful with plants indoors. Place pans or saucers of water ou the heat- ers or registdrs. A. steaming kettle or pot of water on ,the stove is a great help in this respect. When the pots become full of toots, or where the soil is poor,.worn out or exhausted, liquid fertilizers can be given plants. The soil should be moist, not dry, or very wet, when the fertilizer Is applied. There are several good plant foods sold at seed stores. "Sterling Worth Plant Tab- lets" or "Bortora" are both good. Half an ounce of nitrate of soda dis- solved in a little warm water first, and cold water added to make one gallon, also makes a fairly good fer- tilizer for pot plants. Apply once every week or ten days. Spraying with water will help keep -down insect pests. A fine spray thor- oughly applied to all parts of the plant is necessary to be effective. Plants having very rough hirsute fol- • iage, should not be sprayed or spong- ed, especially in winter, only the plants having glossy, glabrous fol- iage. Insect pests increase and thrive best in a dry, warm atmosphere. For aphis or green lice, white fly, red spider and thrip; "Sulpho-Tobacco Soap" is a good remdy. Black Leaf 40 is also a gobd remedy for inost insect pests! on house plants. Soapy water or a solution of whole oil soap and tobacco water are beneficial for scale insects on plants. Slake about one-half pound of fresh lime in a pail of water, allow it to settle. Give about a teacupful of this solution once or twice to each plant suffering from earth worms. Put frozen plants in a dark place at once, temperature about 45 de- grees F. Do not touch the leaves. Sprinkling with ice cold water is beneficial. -W. Hunt( 0. A. College, Guelph. SEAFORTH MARKETS.
