Professor Thomber intimated that 

 too many men are going into horticul- 

 ture in these days of fruit growing 

 prosperity in the Northwest as a final 

 resort to accumulate a fortune or sim- 

 ply as an easy way of obtaining a com- 

 fortable income, adding: 



"While the opportunities are unlim- 

 ited and the profession is far from be- 

 ing full, let no one indulge in it with 

 dreams of sudden riches." 



GIGANTEUMS IN BLOOM BY 

 MARCH 20TH, 1910. 



One of our most successful growers 

 of Lilium giganteum, contrary to the 

 general impression, says there is no 

 difficulty about getting these in bloom 

 by March 20th. His treatment is as 

 follows (written specially for the ben- 

 efit of readers of HORTICULTURE): 



Lilium giganteum if grown success- 

 fully is one of the best paying crops. 

 For the last five years we huve grown 

 this variety mostly and have had it in 

 bloom almost every month in the vear. 

 Many growers are afraid to force it 

 for an early Easter, but experience 

 has taught us that if Easter should 

 come on March 15th we could have 

 giganteuDis in bloom then as well as 

 April loth. 



The best and surest way to grow it 

 is to push it as quick and fast as you 

 are able. For an early Easter like 

 March 2Tth, pot up your bulbs in the 

 first week of December and put them 

 in the warmest house you have on the 

 place, where the temperature runs be- 

 tween 65 and 70 degrees at night, un- 

 der the bench, but don't forget the 

 hose, as the water plays the important 

 part in the beginning. Soak them 

 every day till the tops commence to 

 show. A lily bulb is like a good many 

 other bulbs in that it takes a tropical 

 temperature to give it a quick start. 



In two weeks the growth will be 

 about 2-3 inches long but keep them 

 under the bench till the growth is 

 about S inches long which will help 

 you to get a much longer stem. It 

 will not take longer than four or five 

 weeks to get them 8 or 10 inches in 

 height. From now on you can put 

 them on top of the bench and your 

 battle is won when you have a healthy 

 lily S to 10 inches. With a moderate 

 temperature and a skillful gi'ower you 

 will have no trouble in getting them 

 in at the right time. Of course after 

 you have them on the bench you must 

 use the water more carefully according 

 to the temperature of the house as the 

 roots of a lily don't care for too much 

 water after they are well started.
