 garden soil, placing them thick in the pot. 



Water moderately, and place the pots in a shed where 

 they will freeze. About the first of January bring the pots 

 into the kitchen, and place them on the shelf over the range, 

 or in any very warm place, giving plenty of water. 



The leaves and flower-stalks will rapidly develop, but 

 will be without color. When they are sufficiently long, 

 bring them into full sunlight, where they will get color in a 

 very short time. Some of the best flowers we have ever 

 seen were grown in this way. 



Surely the beauty and fragrance of this favorite flower 

 will repay any trouble. We should never weary of the 

 Lily of the Valley, could we gather it every day in the 

 year.
