early 'SOs, but the stock in them is as 

 fine as anything to be found in a mod- 

 ern range. Henry I, Taust is a master 

 in the art of lily growing; his stock 

 shows what can be done by cultural 

 skill. Of good height, clean, vigorous 

 and with the buds showing, this is no 

 small achievement for one of the ear- 

 liest Easters on record. Mr. Faust 

 grows Lilium multiflorum to perfection, 

 with scarce a sign of rogues to mar their 

 even similarity; lilies to bring pride 

 to the heart of any grower. 



Mr. Fanst 's method of starting bis lil- 



ies is interesting. The soil is prepared. 

 The pots, perhaps 10,000, are placed up- 

 right in solid phalanx, on a level piece 

 of ground. A man with a barrow and 

 shovel half fills them with soil. Then 

 the bulbs are sorted. A man drops them 

 in the pots, a good sized bulb to each 

 pot, or two or three smaller ones. Two 

 men follow him, planting the bulbs 

 firmly in place. The man with the bar- 

 row and shovel completes the job by 

 filling the pots with soil, leaving the 

 rain to settle the soil. This work is
