In the case of the calla lilies and
bleeding hearts, slugs are undoubt
edly at work. Place slug bait
around the plants, protecting from
birds- by paper pegged down or by
shingle placed lightly over bait.
Mice -may have carried some of
the bulbs a little -distance from
where they were planted. Let them
bloom where they are and reset
where wanted following bloom
ing. Either trap moles or place
bulbs in wire-basket protection.
Primees have likely suffered
from strawberry weavil. The
plants may be moved now, al
though they would do better if
moved after they have bloomed.
Baiting for the weavil with poison
apple -bt it (it may be purchased
prepared) thould be resorted to.

Mrs. C. M. C. asks if soil in
which seed is shown should be
fertilized.
Ans.: Most seeds will germinate

richer.

should consist largely of thinning
out weak wood and stopping slen

pruning ideas are to keep the low

too tall trees.
