them fresh after they have been cut the first and most important step is to cut carerully flowers should never be pulled or broken from their stalks but cut with a clean slanting cut this can be done with a sharp knife or a pair of specially constructed scissors which do not pinch the stems as do ordinary shears cutting the flowers on the slant prevents the stems from resting flat upon the bottom of the container thus closing the many tiny cells most flowers should be picked in the early morning before the heal of the sun robs them of their mois ture however according to an an nouncement made by cornell uni versity gladioli when cut in early afternoon last longer they may be cut when the first flower on the yplke begins to open most flowers should be gathered just when the bud is un folding although dahlias lost longer if cut when fully open this is also true of chrysanthemums mums j dont crowd them any leaves which have a tenden cy to decay in water should be re moved keep the flowers for a few hours immediately alter cutting and before arranging in a container of water deep enough to allow the water to come just below the flower parts this treatment also often revives flowers which appear to have wilted the water should be changed aally and a piece of the stem cut off this helps to preserve the flower an jce cube dropped into the water two or three tunes a day also it beneficial flowers just as human beings need air to breath so do not crowd them tightly in a narrow container clothes pins in the garden when cutting awew edge for flow er bed or lawn or turning up an old edge use a string or cord rather ihan- rely upon the accuracy if your eye in spite of his years of experience a professional gardener will always run a string to keep his edges straight common clothes pins can be very useful in holding the string or cord jilplace exenjhoubhjrhecord may be tightly run from end stake to ond stake one is apt to move the cord back and forth with the edging tool unless it is pinned in place at fre quent intervals with clothes pins this some method of using stakes string and clothes pins can be em ployed for planting straight rows of seeds in the home vegetable garden they sprout their seeds interesting customs of the enter prisingdutch gardeners might be fol lowed by gardeners elsewhere who wish to speed germination seeds according to a plant breeder who came to this country from the neth erlands the hollanders place seeds in a cloth bag and hang the bag in a nearby canal overnight the bag is taken out and hung for 48 hours in the cow barn where it is warm by this time the scea has sprouted and it is broadcast by hand in the garden plot gardeners need not of course hunt up a canal or bulla a cow barn but they may hang seeds overnight in any waterfilled container then place the bag in a wanner place for two days and nights this practice is especially recommended for beets carrot and spinach seed remember last summer when the heatwave
