' In a low Japanese bowl of dull green was a glowing mass of nasturtiums, rich with scat let flame and gold. It was then for the first time, I think, that I realized the fall beauty ot the nasturtium. The vision of that dining table haunted me all through the spring months, and then In the fall I bought some seeds and began to experiment. "That winter I did not have a blos som, though they ran riot In April and May. Another year brought the same results. A third year, by the merest chance, I found out a more successful way, and since then J have bfen able to procure winter-bloom. "The lucky chance that set me on the right path was as follows: That spring I had sowed my seeds In pots as in previous years, but with very little hope of success after my earlier experiments. True to my forebodings he little plants began to shed their lower leaves within a month or so. and to grow spindly and sickly In ap pearance. By fall 1 had had a fair per centage of blossoms, but the plants were anything but thrifty with one exception. This was a plant that I had taken up from a neighbor's garden in August, wishing to pre serve its unique color. The plant had been surely six feet high, and at the time of transplanting I had eut it back to within a few Inches of the ground. Later, aa growth had com menced, I had provided a trellis. This trellis in September was a mass of healthy,' thick green stems, with profusion of blossom buds. From October until May I think I caa truthfully say that it was never wholly out of bloom. I think any body can have equal success it they will follow the rules given Velow. "As soon as the ground Is warm enouth. say in early May, sow the seeds In a shallow trench out of doors. I buy a large packet of mixed seeds, and it is Important to buy only from a well-known, reliable firm if you wish a large assortment ot col ors. The plants will take care of themselves, but should be given trellis to climb upon. I have found the climbing varieties to be far su perlor to te dwarf for winter cul ture. as they seem much freer In bloom. ' In my experience Madam Gunters Hybrids give the most un usual range ot color. About the end of July look over the row and take up the colors you desire, cutting the plants back to within three Inches of the ground. One plant only should be placed la a THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPEN Copyright, if. , a . - v v. pw jircHs- A tOX or ci . a-3 four-inch pot. I have tried both the larger and smaller pots, and also us- ng two and three plants to a pot. but ia every case have had better luck when one plant to a four-inch pot was used. "When the colors are chosen, and the stocky stems transplanted, the pots should be plugged at the bottom to prevent the roots from striking through the drainage hole, and then sunk la the (round la si moderately sunny place, up to the ilms of the pot. f A small trellis about eighteen Inches high, such as can be cheaply bought at any seed store, should be used. to each pot. As the plants send up new shoots these should be train ed around and through the trellis. Watering will depend upon the loca tion In the garden. It kept too wet the leaves will turn yellow, aad It is better to err on the side ot dryness. The pots, being porous, will absorb good deal of moisture from the earth. "For soil they like a sandy, loam rather poor In Quality. It grows la too rich soil they will produce mag nlflcent leaves but few blossom i. In the middle of the winter I have used little dissolved plant food, occas ionally when watering therd- But too much . fertiliser will check the blooming Immediately, strange : this may seem. "Before heavy frost the plants should be brought la and the pots placed in a sua ay window dose to the glaas. This Is a very Important point la their success. They seem unharmed by quite severe extremes of heat and cold, but must get all the direct sunlight possible. Here again It is better to be sparlag of water. Wait until the soli is dust-dry be fore watering. Then soak them thor oughly and let dry out out agala, "I had thought to improve the win ter yield of flowers by disbudding the plants until November, but as far as I could see this treatment made no difference. "A dosen plants ot assorted colors grown by this method wllL I predict. furnish a table bouquet throughout the wlnter.- SOLDIERS. OF THE SOIL. The work of grow lag food is next la Importance to that of fighting la the trenches. Not only has civilian prod action been vastly stimulated la all of the allied countries, but much military cutivatlon ot land has been under taken. Ia England every military camp and every German prisoners camp Is engaged in military agricultural op erations. Soldiers are cultivating 50.000 acres behind the lines In France. 7000 acres in Salonika, about 700.000 acres la Mesopotamia and large areas in Egypt. Palestine aad Cyprus. It is estimated that Mesopotamia will total 25.000 tons of wheat aad 100,000 tons ot barley from this mil Itary cultivation. To accomplish this there have been tractors, threshers and hsnd Implements sent from In dia aad Australia, as well as from Great Britain.
