It was early March and snow was still spattered on the leaf mould between the firs and larches.

The soil should consist of about 3 parts turfy loam, 1 part leaf mould, 1 part coarse silver sand, with enough chemical or other manure added to render the whole moderately rich.

Finally they become sere and russet or "die like the dolphin," passing in all the splendor of sunset skies to oblivion on the leaf mould under the trees.

About the first of May, too, I took a tip from Luther Burbank and put early corn into a mixture of leaf mould and fresh manure in a big box.

When making up potting soil, manure or leaf mould, an occasional sprinkling will increase the manurial value and also destroy the worms and other insects.
