Whether in water or earth you must be sure they are well rooted. This is very impor tant. If poorly rooted they will not flower perfectly. To ascertain about the roots you need to turn the" pot npslde down, place your hands underneath; and tap the rim of the pot sharply on the edge of the table. When you try this always be sure that the earth Is quite damp. If not damp It will fall apart when turned out, and many of the roots will break off with it, greatly to the injury of the plant. i If damp the ball -will leave the pot smoothly and not a particle will fall off, and the pot can be replaced again Drying the Hands. After washing, when the weather Is cold, the operation of drying can not be too thoroughly performed. Many women take the wise precaution of rubbing a little oatmeal powder or al mond meal over the backs of the hands, the fine powder absorbing any Divide Bed for Children.
