THE CARE AND CULTURE OF HOUSE PLANTS (Experimental Farms Note) Our homes. especially during the winter months are much too hot and dry for most plants. High tempera- tures combined with too little sunshine produce weak, fpindly growth and un- der such conditions flowering often drOp their buds. As the home can only be modified to a very slight extent, plants must be chosen that can adjust themselves to such environ- mem. Many failures to grow plants successfully are due to: faulty drainage, careless watering and insect injury.

Insects: Red spiders thrive under house conditions and are hard to over- come. At the Experimental Station at Charlottetown good results were ob- tainedby dusting carefully with flowers of sulphur. Sucking insects are con- trolled with nicotine sulphate, one tea- spoonful to one gallon of water; biting insects with a tablespoonful of arsenate of lead to the same amount of water. Scale insects on ferns may be controlled by miscible oils now on the market.
