 work, or even $25.00 to 50.00 a day, as some firms ad- 

 vertise, because we don't believe it can be done. Such 

 claims are absurd, and are not worthy the attention 

 of any person who has common sense.

BUDDING OF ROSES. 



I prefer the castilian rose as a founda- 

 tion, as it is well adapted to our climate 

 and is a strong grower. Our two springs, 

 March and August, have been found to 

 be the best times with us, as the bark of 

 the stalk separates easily from the pith. 

 In the bark of the growing castilian I cut 

 a lengthwise gash about one inch in 

 length, with a short cross cut at each end 

 and slip a dull knife point between the 

 bark and pith. If they separate easily, 

 the time is right for budding. 



At the base of ever\^ rose-leaf is a tiny 

 bud. When this bud is about as large as 

 half a grain of wheat, it is about the size 

 required. With your knife slice off from 

 the side of the choice stem the bud with 

 enough bark to hold it wqW — perhaps a 

 half inch above and below. Remove the 

 pith and slip the bud into the gash in the 

 castilian stalk; lay it smooth, allowing 

 the main bark to cover all the slip except 



the bud itself. Wind tight with soft cord 

 until growth commences, after which the 

 cord should be loosened.

THE CHINESE SACRED LILY. 



The Chinese Sacred lily will give more 

 pleasure to the amateur in the ordinary 

 window-garden than almost any other 

 bulb. The growth is almost phenomenal. 

 The rank, green foliage is beautiful in 

 mid-winter, and each bulb sends up half 

 a dozen spikes, crowned with the deli- 

 ciously fragrant flowers. 



When grown in water and pebbles and 

 placed in a pretty cut-glass bowl, this is 

 exceedingly ornamental. The Chinese 

 lily is much more satisfactor>^ in water 

 than when grown in soil and blooms in 

 three weeks after starting. I drain off 

 water about twice a week and fill up with
