"We look at them occasion- ally, but they have not moved, nor do we expect they will. We had a few flowering maples, farfugiums, and other things of that nature that those red spiders had taken possession of, and about a week later, December 16, we gave the whole house another dose. We like it so well we are not think- ing of using any other material, but we like to read the experience of others. We know a large house could not be aired out so as to be safe, as we do ours, and the ventilators ought to be so they could be opened from the out- side, except where the house is kept closed all night, which we would favor where practicable. The use of this gas removes the tobacco in all forms, or any spraying or any plans to kill in- sects, for in our experience the gas gets all of them. We were going after black aphis on some mums we bought, without perfect success, when we fumi- gated and killed all of 'em. J. F. Thissell. PLANTS FOR MEMORIAL DAY. Please tell me when to sow seed of candytuft and Petunia Eosy Morn to have them in bloom for Decoration day. Also please tell me the name of the dwarf white stocks with glossy green leaves, used for pots at Decoration time. F. K. Sow the petunia seed at once in pans of leaf-mold and sand. Make the sur- face smooth and water it before sow- ing the seeds. As the seeds are quite fine, do not cover them. Protect with glass and shade with paper until the germination takes place. A moist house, with a temperature of 60 de- grees, will be suitable. Candytuft may be
