LILIES FOR FORCING. 



If wanted by mail, add 5 cents each. 



The bulbs may be potted from August onward in a compost of equal parts 

 turfy loam, leaf mold, rotten cow manure, and sand. It is best to start them 

 in pots not exceeding twice their own diameter, in which they may remain until 

 started eight inches or more. They should be transferred then to larger pots 

 in which to bloom, exercising great care not to disturb the roots or break away 

 the soil from about them, and setting them considerably deeper in the larger 

 pots. This method prevents the soil from becoming sour, and enables the 

 roots forming at the base of the stem to become feeders, greatly increasing 

 the number and size of the blossoms. 



LILIUM CANDIDUM. {Ascension or Madonna Lily.) 



These are grown for us in France, and are the large variety, vrith pure white 

 flowers; excellent both for forcing and open garden.
