DAFFODILS GROWN IN WATER. 



When planting your bulbs for the 

 window garden this fall, don't forget 

 to plant some Daffodil Bulbs (Narcissus 

 trumpet major) in a dish filled with 

 pebbles and water. Treat the same as 



you would Chinese sacred lilies, expos- 

 ing them to light at once. They will 

 bloom excellently this way, and if 

 planted at intervals of a couple of 

 weeks they may be had in bloom from 

 Christmas until Spring.
