Mclntyre Bros, handed me a bullet. 

 Some folks hand out lemons, but this 

 was a genuine bullet. The plant stands 

 on an old battlefield and numbers of bul- 

 lets are occasionally turned up when 

 plowing. 



Jos. Grudy, Dreer's representative, was 

 a caller, returning from a southern trip. 

 He reported business good. W. 



PLANTING BULBS DEEPLY. 



The deep planting of bulbs in outside 

 beds can be recommended as sound prac- 

 tice in the great majority of cases. When 

 planted deeply, the root system develops 

 enormously before the green shoot shows 

 its nose above the soil, and the latter has 

 plenty of support behind it should it en- 

 counter inclement weather. Again, a 

 deeply-planted bulb is longer in pushing 

 its growing point through the soil, and 

 this delay often means much in an un- 

 favorable season, one of mild weather 

 followed by a freeze. When dealing with 

 bulbs in pots, we take care to ensure root 

 production before top growth by cover- 

 ing the pots with ashes; by deep plant- 

 ing we do the same for our outdoor 

 btilbs.
