HYACINTHS 
While one of the oldest garden favorites, it is, nevertheless, a most 
beautiful and interesting plant, that succeeds well either in the house 
or garden and can be grown in water, sand, moss or any light, well- 
drained soil, and is sure to give satisfaction for the amount of care and 
labor bestowed on its cultivation. It has no rivalry among winter- 
blooming bulbs in variety of color, beauty and fragrance and the 
flowers are suitable for all decorations. 
HYACINTHS IN GLASSES 
Grown in glasses Hyacinths are very interesting as well as orna- 
mental. Fill the glasses with water and place the bulb so that the 
water will just touch the base. Place same in a dark, cool place. 
As the water evaporates a little more should be added. 
A small piece of charcoal placed in the water will help greatly to 
keep it pure. After the roots have attained a good growth bring out to 
the light. 
NOTE:— Each and dozen prices include postage.
