pot them
singly in 4-in. pots, using soil a trifle less sandy. They should be
grown in shallow frames facing the north, and, if so situated that the
sun shines upon the plants in the middle of the day, they must be
slightly shaded; give plenty of air, and never allow them to get dry.
When well established with roots, shift them into 6-in. pots, which
should be liberally supplied with manure water as they get filled with
roots. In winter remove to a pit or house, where a little heat can be
supplied whenever there is a risk of their getting frozen. They should
stand on a moist bottom, but must not be subjected to cold draughts.
When the flowering stems appear, give manure water at every alternate
watering. Seeds sown in March, and grown on in this way, will be in
bloom by Christmas if kept in a temperature of from 40 deg. to 45 deg.
at night, with a little more warmth in the day; and those sown in April
and May will succeed them during the early spring months, the latter set
of plants being subjected to a temperature of 38 deg. or 40 deg. during
the night. If grown much warmer than this, the Cineraria maggot will make
its appearance in the leaves, tunnelling its way between the upper and
lower surfaces and making whitish irregular markings all over. Such
affected leaves must be picked off and burned. Green fly is a great pest
on young plants, and can only be kept down by fumigating or vaporizing
the houses, and syringing with a solution of quassia chips, soft soap and
tobacco.

CINGOLI (anc. _Cingulum_), a town of the Marches, Italy, in the province
of Macerata, about 14 m. N.W. direct, and 17 m. by road, from the town
of Macerata. Pop. (1901) 13,357. The Gothic church of S. Esuperanzio
contains interesting works of art. The town occupies the site of the
ancient Cingulum, a town of Picenum, founded and strongly fortified by
Caesar's lieutenant T. Labienus (probably on the site of an earlier
village) in 63 B.C. at his own expense. Its lofty position (2300 ft.)
made it of some importance in the civil wars, but otherwise little is
heard of it. Under the empire it was a _municipium_.

CINNA, a Roman patrician family of the gens Cornelia. The most prominent
member was Lucius CORNELIUS CINNA, a supporter of Marius in his contest
with Sulla. After serving in the war with the Marsi as praetorian
legate, he was elected consul in 87 B.C. Breaking the oath he had sworn
to Sulla that he would not attempt any revolution i
