ULITJM. 



The Lily has been, with eminent propriety, styled the 

 " Queen of Flowers," and truly no flower conveys so 

 adequate an idea of queenly beauty, majestic grandeur, 

 and faultless purity, as the Lily. Their culture is sim- 

 ple, and with a little care, failure is impossible. Select 

 a deep, rich soil, enrich it well with thoroughly decom- 

 posed manure, and set the bulbs from three to six inches 

 deep, according to size. In the autumn the bed should 

 be protected by a liberal covering of leaves or litter, and 

 care should be taken that the bulbs have proper drainage, 

 no water being allowed to stand around the roots. The 

 bulbs can be transplanted either in spring or autumn, 

 but should be kept out of the ground the shortest possi - 

 ble time. Once firmly established, they should not be 

 disturbed oftener than once in five years. Many of the 

 varieties force well in green-house, but are more suita- 

 ble for parlor culture.
