lOnonyli for tiic liistoricai. l''roni wliat 

 I can lioar. lilies seem to lie plentiful 

 for Kaster; also tlie\' are of |iretty ^oo>\ 

 ijiiality. Do not move a lily from a 

 warm house to one l."> or lin dcd-rei-s 

 cooler unless the huds are white and 

 are ready to liiirst d|)en. .\fter that 

 they will expand in almost any tein 

 |ieratiire. 



Of late we haxc liad iii;iii\' da\"s ot' 

 lirii;lit sunshine, wlTudi lias tended to 

 iijiset our call-Illations, especially on 

 Imllioiis stui'k. Shading to keep otV tlii' 

 diroct lays of the sun will ludp yroatly. 



.\s yot rliodddendrons show little 

 siy;iis of opeiiiiiji- their luuls, lint when 

 tliev finally do start to open the jdaiil 

 is sliortl\' full of hlooiii. The yi'eat ina 

 jority of azaleas will he early. .\ oood 

 way to retard tln'tii is to set tlieiii under 

 a lii;il» hcncli and cover with tissiie 

 papiM-. 



We are all ci'owded just now, and wc 

 must iii.aneuvcr. Think what is of most 

 value to you, and sonu' tliinjis not so 

 ini|iortant must yi\'e place to those that 

 are |i:irani()iint.
