 bearing immense spikes of pure white with a deli- 

 cate blush.

 New Years. Each bulb throws up several spikes of flowers, which are very beautiful and fragrant, and 

 when kept in a cool room "will keep perfectly for weeks. Three can be planted in a four or five-inch pot,

 bulbs. The new double ones are exceedingly fine. Do not fail to plant a good lot of them for winter.

 bells in large spikes. 10 cents each; 4 for 35 cents.
