watering to settle. The holes were then 

 filled with soil, and the bed given a top- 

 dressing of rotted manure, then a mulch 

 of pine straw about four inches thick. 

 The roses all lived. 



I planted seventy-five more in the same 

 way last April, but eight of them died 

 during the summer's heat, in spite of all 

 nursing. 



Many fine roses are utterly worthless in 

 the South unless budded or grafted on a 

 thrifty stock. The crimson rambler makes 

 an excellent stock. 



Florists are not always to blame for 

 roses not being true to name. There is a 

 great difference in soils, and such chemi- 

 cal ingredient as an abundance of iron 

 will often effect the colors of flowers. 

 Roses may also change in the sandy soils 

 of the South, which lack certain neces- 

 sary ingredients. 



For mulching, any straw or dry grass 

 will do as well as pine-straw, the idea 

 being to protect the roots from heat, and 

 to prevent the evaporation of moisture.

THE CHINESE SACRED LILY. 



I obtained the bulb late in October and 

 potted it the first of November in a candy 

 jar half filled with nice, white sand, pebbles 

 and water, just enough to come up to the 

 neck of the bulb. I set it in the cellar 

 until Thanksgiving day and then brought 

 it to the sitting-room, and found the jar 

 filled with pretty white roots and the top 

 covered with nice, green sprouts. I gave 

 it plenty of light and by Christmas day it 

 was a thing of beauty, having thirty-nine 

 full-blown lilies and any number of buds. 



If you could have seen the joy that lily 

 brought. First, it went to a mission 

 school, to make so many children happy; 

 then it spent several days with a sick bey 

 and helped to brighten his lonely hours; 

 from there it went to the home of a neigh- 

 bor who was suffering great pain, and oh! 

 the pleasure it gave him; and then we 

 enjoyed it greatly at our own home. "We 

 would not be without one again.
