Every year regularly conies the query, “ What Is the matter w ith my asters ami what can I do for them?” Apparently healthy plants suddenly fail at the neck and topple over. This is one trouble. The next Is that the plant dries up. turning a disa greeable brown, and forgets to do its duty as a decent flowering aster should. Looking to the hardiness of seeds, for several seasons we have been fir the habit, says American Gar dening, of sowing < r scattering seeds of various kinds to test their ability of withstanding the rigor of winter, then germinating and taking care of them selves the following spring, lu this way we have had some astonishing re sults. There are more seeds capable of taking core of themselves during the winter than the average gardener cred its. It was In this way that we discover ed this spring that the aster withstood the rigor of winter in our own trial grounds and came up abundantly. The plants wore so thrifty and looked so well that wo were tempted to use them. At the same time In the regular way asters of various kinds were sown In the spring and transplanted. Of these we had a fine stock. They flour ished for awhile, began to show their blossoms and then began to go off with the fatal diseases. Not so the plants that had been transplanted in parallel rows from the autumn sown seed. These grow and flourished. Not a sin gle plant lias been lost, and at the time of writing. Oct. 3, the lateral branches arc in full flower. This statement is made simply for what it is worth and from only one season’s observation, but it nppefc!s so strongly that we feel com pelled to let our readers know about it. In the early part of the season pref erence for plant and blooms would go to tlio spring sown. They appeared more vigorous and started in to throw much larger flowers. The autumn sown plants were sturdy, came iuto bloom a few days later, and while the blooms have been all the season uni formly good they have lacked the size of well grown plants sown In tho spring aud which have escaped these diseases. W e do not guarantee that this is a panacea against stem rot and rust, but simply make the statement that it has been a decided success with us this season. passengers when not In actual transit.
