Some- . Saving Flower Seeds How to Know When They Are Ripe | By Leslie Gordon If more than half the flower seeds that you planted this year failed to come up you may be pretty sure that it was because you bought cheap seed + ef poor quality, or if you saved your own seed the fault was that it was gathered at the wrong time, The in- . omperienced gardener often makes fatal errors when collecting seeds for the next season, yet if a few simple details are noted carefully the opera- “tion ds very simplé and sure to.be uccesstul. The pods'ef candytuft, escholtzias, mignonette and snapdragon should all be @ pale brown before the seed within is ripe enough to be taken. With sweet peas the rule is not safe to follow, Neither may we rely on ascertaining the color of the peas themselves, since those of white, oréam and other scarcely tinted va- rieties remain quite pale. Our test in this as in many other cases must be ‘to gently pinch the pods, not enough to split them open and risk the scat- “tering of their contents, but ¢o prove if they are thoroughly gun dried and brittle, @f they are, then the peas are sure to be ripened sufficiently for taking. A summer study of a pansy bed ives a fair lesson in seed selection. ‘There will be cracked pods of chest- nut-brown or even darker seed. ‘These should have been taken earlier, since the sunshine has been beating Upon the unprotected seeds, unduly shrivelling them up, impoverisbing them, and though they will probably germinate, the seedlings will, I be- eve, be less robust than those of jseed gathered a trifle earlier, Every- thing that has to do with the perfect culture of a plant has not yet been learned and committed to paper, it “should be remembered, and only very loving floriculturists guess at the more minute influences that have to te reckoned with. Other pods of the pansies will be drooping and pale, or dark green, somo tinged with yel- low, others nearing brown, but none of these is ready to harvest. The ext lot observed may be much stiffer on the stem, yet still a trifle pendant; these, too, can be passed by. When seeds are brought ‘indoors there still remains a little work to do, It spoils them to put them into envelopes or tie them up in packets while there is any danger that they contain even a suspicion of moisture, "The right method is to lay them’ on ‘small trays or plates or saucers and Place them on a table just inside a sunny window that can be kept shut ‘for a few days and then place an old plece of white muslin over them all, The seeds wil! finish drying under this protection without the injurious withering that they would get if left tod! long in the pods outdoors, In a day or two in clear, dry weather they an be safely fastened up in en- \ 4 then clearly labelled with and The Doctor Comes ' By Charlotte C.
