House Plants. Getting plants and pottinif them is , one thing—properly cant* for them is another. The demands of a plant are feiv; but these being =.lites garded, failure is sttre to folio* In ,the first place as to watering. Plapts Imust-have water; and many,thfulang that you cannot have too much! of a good thing, water all the time,,fkeep , roots in-liquid mud-jiabout sis sure a way to kill a plant as can boidesired. If a plait gets too. dry, it ban usually be restored; -but we 'mow of no way in which to restore a sodden ivass of Water -soaked-roots. Decay sets in, and the job is done. Plants in olden ground are treated to ',alternations of wetness and dryness. Every one must have . noticed how much better plants t3tan4Arouth than -a long continued rain. With house plants we mustheep up this; alter . and allow,thetarth in the pots tor.);e far eihausted, of m oisture that air can fenetAate the earn.' 'No plant,unless it be a,•"thorough aquatic, can flourish in sodden earth.. 4 ;The rule should be to water just before the plan*begins to need it. A wiiteh-, fal eye till notice, the proper time. Air is anether xequirement of house plants. -We ourselves contrive to e with an impure , atmosphere birt the plants cannot be sieceived. They musthave r pro • r or they' i ).ned houses - - heated by, wood fires, W i ere (hero is abundant ventilation, F re is no diffi culty in growing house plantA, In our modem howles , success with plants'is - the . -exciphon. Open the windows whenever there is no danger . of freezinn•Lthe pla nts. D_ ust`is the housekeeper's annoy ' sacs, audit is also that• of the plant. • Cover the plants with papers or a cloth while sweeping is gOing on,, and as often 'T•as practicable' set the tots in a sink or bath-tub and 'give them a'-tine . showering from a water ing-pot. -11.W.-I'his must be governed by the requirenionts of the family.- When it can be regulated, the' temperature -- for plants at night should be from 10 to 15 degrees lees than they' have with sunlight. Here' 'is one great trouble with house.plants. 'keep the temperature .of _our room es. high - or higher4tfnight than we rdo in the daytime. ..i'ertilizerg.—Much is written by amateur newspaper writers about the use of ammonia, and; this and that specific for making plants flourish. We have raised a great mkny house plants, and have had about as good success as the average, vrithout re- course to any of this fancy treatment. The plants are Tut into good, rich, light soil at the outset, and they do not need anything from the apothe cary's shop. Some Who write about plants l seem to delight in throwibg a mystery about their l ettltivation, and seribii their success to certain fertil izerS. Proper watering, judicious airing, and a low night temperature, will do all that can lie done' for their welfare. Weeds as a Green Crop. We. should always have weeds. It is inipoesible to, conceive of an agi, i odture.so.perfect that they will no h)nger exist. They may be killed in their earliest 'infancy, but still they wilLeoiae again. Nature abhors a naked sgrface and is fast_ to clothe -our fields with verdure, even though maylneglect. to plant. If it ever bit;conicA - pOsSible for farmers •to do everything that is. necessary at the • exact moment when it ought to be done; they inay find in this sponta neous growth a really valuable source of Manure.' It is proverbial that nothing -grows so luxuriantly as weeds; and as no vegetable growing upon the land can be plowed into it - - without increasing its fertility; weeds might be turned to a ' good account if we could make sure to plow them well under before they form their . seeds. Of course Bitch weeds m=4. propagate themselves -by their roots tinist , ,lie rigorously excluded; but all • - other,sorts; and especially the . well known ragweed, '(24mhrosia,). which, grows luxuriantly and does not ripen its seeds early, might be depended on for material help. ! !it is not likely that an *portant part of the benefit of slimmer-fallow iug "isj that at each plowing vegetable .tuatter. is Mixed with!tlie soil, , and it may even be well, if there are no eat- Iv-seeding weeds on the field,to allow the crop to attain considerable height before turniUg it doWn. We are not, of comae, advocating the careless neglect of weeds,which are the source of more agricultural noe than alined all else ' besides, out merely hinting at a means by which a judicious and froe-handed man may avail himself of the :wonderful. benefits . .or green manuring without 'the cost of time and money that the raising .of clover and buck wheat demand; and wede sire - itbovc 2 all things not' to have oar -I,ngtion distorted into an excuse fot.slovenly farming by men who are too lazy or too incompetent to keep their hind 'in proper order. It May be Well to remark that we have not been able to think' Of any way in which the tangle :of weeds and briers, that ornament so many farmers' head-lands and fence-roirs, can be ! turned to use.--Agrfrultenist. The Kitchen Garden. ' If You want early vegetables, such as lettuce,-radislies-, beets, cabbage, tomatoes, this is the time 16 prepare your hot-bed and cold - fraines. Ma nure is essential. Well decomposed - . manure may be taken. to the spot where-it will be.needed, and left in small heaps, while that for hot-beds shot ld not be in.so small heaps that it will be chilled throug,but it should be k ''', - A in a state of fermentation. _As so 01 as a heap shows -signs Of heath 0-, it should be turned over,and . each t ' rning will ranch- improve its qnalit : Plants which are growing 10 , (add Frame.s.—lf the weather. is \ Cr . % cold and the plants are frozen, it is of necessary to remove the snow f i roin the frames,bnt light fall of snow, f.)ll6wed by mild ' weather, must be immediately - removed.
