Check vour premium list today and I see what you can enter this year, j If your choice is cut flowers you’ll j certainly want them to stay attractive as long as possible. You have prob -4 ably tried remedies from aspirin to hydrochloric acid with varying de grees of success. John Harris, in charge of Extension Horticulture, has compiled a. list of simple, easy reeom- 1 mendations on keening cut flowers. | 1. Cut you: flowers with a sliarpi knife in lrte afternoon, i 2. Be svre. "’u.v container in which, j you are to . ;:: '."',: ' l :,:' the flowers Js 1 thoroughly scoured, even sterilized, I because scum (bacteria) clog up the I stems and cut down on water ab sorption. 3. Copper containers work good be- ! cause they .give off small amounts of copper which help keep down bacteria. Copper wire in other type containers will help in the same wav. 4. Plants absorb most of their wa ter through the cut end. Therefore it makes little difference with most flowers how deep the stem is in the water. Make a sloping cut so the water can enter the stems. Pin cush ion type holders may stop up part of the stem and thus prevent some water absorption. 5. Don’t allow leaves to stay in wa ter. They soon decay and foul up the water. 6. The cutting of stems under wa ter helps with some plants, others! show no effect. 7. Most writers agree that dahlia, poinsettia, hollyhock, heliotrope and poppy kept better if cut end of stems are burned before placing in water. ; 8. Keep your flowers out of drafts , and as cool as possible, especially , when first cut. 9. The commercial preparations • available from your florist usually contain several materials and should be satisfactory. One home mixture consists of 2 teaspoonsful sugar, % teaspoonful clorox, and 1 pinch ferric oxide (iron rust) in 1 quart of water. Home demonstration club members all over the county are making aprons, pickles, preserves, candy and lots of •ther items for their annual bazaar at the County Fair.
