The Imported Holland Fibre takes 
the place of soil. Simply put it in pots 
or vases, plant the bulbs barely cover- 
ing the crowns, and water. Put away 
in a dark, cool place for five or six weeks 
sind bring to light and moderate warmth 
about middle of November. Four weeks 
later should see you rewarded with a 
bouquet of fragrance and beauty. Other 
flowers that may be grown this way 
are fully described in 
Daffodils ! 
W HAT else so cheerful as the Daffodils that greet you in early Spring? 
Of snowy white, or mellow gold, they bloom profusely — almost any- 
where, even in poor soil. And once planted, they multiply and bloom more 
abundantly and charmingly year afteryear without care. Plant these Bulbs 
NOW — and generously, on your lawn (for they will be through blooming before 
you cut the grass), along your shrubbery border, or fringing the roadside, or 
even in the nearby woods — anywhere they will grow unmolested, and you will 
reap unbounded joy every Spring when they are in bloom.
