CUT FLOWERS
Prolongation of life. The Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association of Honolulu have never influenced my life until now, but wjtb the Issue of their recent research report I am happy to take note of their experiments, says a contributor to the News Chronicle. They have been experimenting or cut Cowers and they have shown that by adding two cubic centimetres oi sulphurous acid to a pint of water the lives of some flowers are prolonged. Don’t order sulphuric acid by mistake, since that brings nothing bul rapid death. It is only certain types of out flowers that benefit, and particularly large-stemmed ones. It is also possible that the effect is related to the type of soli in which the flowers were grown. '
