The seedlings are rather tender and should be kept in a temperature of 70° at night, given a good allowance of moisture and shaded from the full sun, it being a well-known fact that many plants require more or less shading when grown under glass, even though they may endure full sunshine when growing in the open air. The ferns that have been brought in from outdoor frames require plenty of light and air, for when they are placed in too close and dark a house they will soon grow long and drawn, and thus become useless for filling table ferneries. The adiantums in particular require lots of ventilation at this season to avoid damping of the foliage, and if these useful though tender ferns are grown in a rather stiff clay soil the foliage will be shorter and more sturdy than that of plants that are potted in a light com- post. Young adiantums may still be shifted on from thumbs to 3-inch pots, or from 3-inch to 4 inch pots as may be necessary, and should be in nice condition by the beginning of the year.
