FAPEB WHITES AND HYACINTHS. 



Will you kindly inform us how to 

 make our plantings of Paper Whites and 

 hyacinths, both Dutch and Roman, so 

 as to have a succession of bloom for the 

 winter? M. & J. 



Paper White narcissi usually arrive 

 from the middle of August until the 

 early part of September. Eoman hya- 

 cinths (French grown) arrive about t^e 

 same time. Each of these should be 

 planted in flats containing four inches 

 of soil. A convenient sized flat is 4xl2x 

 24. This will hold fifty bulbs of either 

 the narcissi or hyacinths. The narcissi 

 after boxing can be stood in a cold- 

 frame and covered with board shutters 

 to prevent the soil drying out, or placed 

 on a cellar floor. The hyacinths should 

 have a dark place. If in the light, they 

 will be better covered with two or three 

 inches of fine cinders. The bulbs need 

 not all be placed in the soil at once. 

 L/oave some out for, say, six weeks, 

 keeping the bulbs as cool and dry as 

 possible. It is easy keeping up a suc- 

 cession of both bulbs. Once they are 

 well rooted they will stand forcing, but 

 the Paper Whites come stronger if grown 

 in a temperature of 50 degrees, while 

 the hyacinths can bo given 10 to 15 

 degrees more, moving them to cooler 

 quarters as they open. 



Paper Whites may be had early in^ 

 November and Roman hyacinths by 

 Thanksgiving. The Paper White flats 

 can be placed below the benches and 

 lifted up to the light as they open. By 

 keeping them in a cold cellar and bring- 

 ing in weekly batches, a long succes- 

 sion can be had. The same holds good 

 of Roman hyacinths. 



Dutch hyacinths will not bloom satis- 

 factorily before the middle or end of 

 January, and a succession may be had 

 until April. We like to cover the flats

with cinders and give them occasional 

 waterings before housing them. The 

 batches first housed are liable to come 

 short-stemmed, unless after housing 

 they are kept for a few days in a warm, 

 dark case, to draw them up somewhat. 

 Before starting them they should be well 

 rooted and have top growths two to two 

 and one-half inches long. Soak all 

 bulbs thoroughly after planting and it 

 will be necessary to give them addi- 

 tional waterings before forcing. Even 

 if the surface soil may seem damp, that 

 below will be comparatively dry. Watch 

 later issues of The Review, which will 

 contain frequent references to these 

 bulbs and their culture. C. W. 



PIEBSON'S NEIGHBOBS. 



The honorable president of the S. A. 

 F. moves in aristocratic circles, as wit- 

 ness the evidence of the clipping repro- 

 duced below, which links his name with 

 that of the kings of finance: 



' ' William Rockefeller, Frank A. Van- 

 derlip, James Speyer, V. Everit Macy 

 and several other New York million- 

 aires are angry with the village of 

 Ossining. A short time ago Frank R. 

 Pierson, the largest grower of American 

 Beauty roses in this country, gave the 

 village authorities permission to dump 

 its garbage in a cove which he owns at 

 Scarborough, where the said million- 

 aires live. 



"One day, when the wind was blow- 

 ing from the cove, there came a smell 

 which caused the financial noses to turn 

 up and moved some of them to remark 

 that Pierson had neglected his roses 

 and they were spoiling on his hands. 

 But Pierson hadn't. It was the garbage 

 they smelled. A protest has been made 

 and the denizens of Scarborough are 

 seriously considering suing the village 

 of Ossining." — New York World. 



Dows, la. — Work has been begun in 

 the erection of Shaffer & Larson's new 

 greenhouse, which will be a first-class 

 structure, 40x90 feet. Frank Larson, 

 the senior member of the firm, is man- 

 ager for a creamery at this place, and 

 I. H. Shaffer, the junior member, was 

 formerly in the nursery business at 

 Grundy Center, and for the last six 

 years has been a market gardener in 

 this city.
