BULBS FOR BEAUTY 



by Charles 



Mueller 



The complete story of bulbs from the 

 first spring crocus to the last lily in 

 autumn is here told with the clarity of 

 a Fifth Reader and the fascination of a 

 novel. If you would have your garden 

 bloom while snowdrifts linger; if you 

 would adorn it with the golden gaiety 

 of daffodils and the proud loveliness of 

 tulips; if you would give it the fra- 

 grance of hyacinth and tuberose and 

 gather from it bountiful bouquets of 

 dahlia and gladiolus — then read Bulbs 

 toT Beauty and follow directions care- 

 fully.
