THE MAKING OF~
WINDOW GARDEN8.
Every window In a house may have
Its small winter garden If one chooses,
Prom among the planta.that love shade,
and the others that must have sun It Is
possible by careful selection to suit all
situations. Rut I would not advise
giving up the air and light space of
tnany windows to growing plants; In
stead, I would suggest that one entire
hay or receaaed window be devoted to
them and all the display made there,
with the exception of the “kitchen gar
den," of which I shall speak later.
If the usual house plants are to be
the feature of the window, garden pots
will be the more convenient way of
handling them; but If something origi
nal Is desired, a window box wherein
pansies, violets, ngeratum, alysaum,
mignonette, or almost any low-growing
and free-flowering plant can be sown
In a mass, as In an outdoor bed, will be
a delightful change.
Whatever you decide upon, choose a
few varieties and have several plants
of each rather than crowding the space
with single plants of many kinda. And
remember that the temperature for
Planis should be lower than that of the
modern living room, and that they must
have fresh air as well as water. Go
about preparing the plants at once—
how Is the accepted time.
The Chinese primrose has long been a
' av >rlte with window gardeners be-
rauso of Its constant, free-flowering
qualities. Get plants at once and pot
them In a light, spongy soli, being care
ful to have the crown of each plant

Would slope away from It on all. sides

winter. The cyclamen Is another very
Pleasing winter flowering plant for am
ateur use. Its oddly recurved and twlft
eu Petals suggest white, pink nnd car

’■fully marked foliage. Procure strong
fuots, and pot.in rich, sandy loam, well
“rained. Set the cornt on the surface
uf the soil, pressing It down about half
depth, Water moderately. Plants
generally begin to blAom In December,
and until May they will seldom be with
