In this month you fliould put the bulbous 

 roots of Tulips, Hyacinths, Jonquils, Narcif- 

 fufes, &c, upon glafiTes filled with w^ater, for 

 to flower in rooms early in the fpring : thefe 

 glalTes fhould be placed where they may have 

 as much free air as poffible, while the weather 

 continues mild 3 for if they are kept in clofe 

 rooms, their leaves and (talks will be drawn up 

 fo weak, that their flower-ftalks wiU not be able 

 to fupport the flov/er as they fiiould do ; there- 

 fore they fhould not be fet into the rooms, 

 until the flowers are almofi: ready to open : 

 nor fhould they be expofed to bad weather af- 

 ter they begin to put out their leaves; fo that 

 if they are placed near the windows of a Green- 

 houfe where they may have free air in mild 

 weather, and be fcreened from cold, they w^ill 

 produce much ftronger flowers. The glafTes 

 for this purpofe, are now wxll contrived, and 

 fo generally known, as to render their defcrip- 

 lion here unneceflary.
