MRS. RACER TACKLES ORCHID-RAISING •

Mrs. H. J. Racer of Washington has been sent an orchid plant by her daughter, Mrs. D. T. Gardiner, of Palm Beach, Florida, along with instructions on raising the delicate plant.

The question is often asked if orchids can be grown in the home and Mrs. Racer is tackling the job to see if it can be done. The plant, which she received by' air express, is six years old and, as stated by the sender, Mrs. Gardiner, is supposed to bldom next month. Instructions say it should be placed in a south or east window for plenty of sunshine, and it must be kept warm. It only requires water even ten days. At present the plant has two buds, and each bud should produce two or three orchids..

This early in the game, Mrs. Racer is making no promises on the outcome of her orchid-raising project, nor will she give any estimates on how long one must wait for an orchid corsage for a special occasion
