The benches will now be getting fairly full of roots, and, in order to reduce the num- ber of waterings, a light mulch is ad- visable. Use half rotted leaves rather than cow manure. If manure is used, let it be old and crumbly, such as can be got from a spent hotbed or mush- room bed. In order to keep mealy bug down, frequent syringings are neces- sary, but during damp, sunless weather it is better to leave the foliage dry. Maintain a minimum temperature of 65 degrees. Scented Verbenas. Verbenas outdoors now have an abundance of nice, soft cuttings. Those rubbed off with a heel are the least liable to damp off. If a propagating bench is not at disposal, make up a single sash in one of the coldframes, so that a brisk heat can be bottled up. The present is also a good time to root some heliotropes and scented geraniums. The latter, however, need somewhat cooler and airier quarters than the scented verbenas. FLOWERS AT THE FRISCO FAIR.
