Bulb-Culture 
To get results in bulb-culture, you should enrich the 
soil, particularly where annuals have been grown the pre¬ 
vious summer or among the perennials where the soil is 
apt to be impoverished. Well-rotted manure is the best 
fertilizer, but it must be thoroughly decomposed and as 
friable, or easily handled, as soil. It should be mixed with 
the soil to a depth of from 9 to 12 inches. As a substitute, 
pure bonemeal, finely ground, can be used, and leaf-mold 
should be added if the ground is of a heavy texture. A hard- 
baked soil will not grow good bulbs. A light mulch of 
leaves or straw should be provided before heavy frosts.

THE MADONNA LILY 
(Lilium candidum) 
Loveliest Lily of all, and most satisfactory for the 
garden. Bulbs arrive from France in early September 
and should be planted at once to assure perfect blossoms 
for the coming year; hence early ordering is desirable. 
We offer only the thick-petaled type, imported di¬ 
rectly from northern France. Delightfully fragrant, 
snow-white flowers, varying from 5 to 20 on a rigid stem, 
appear about June 20 —delphinium-time—and are seen 
at their perfection it planted among the delphiniums. 
Good, ordinary, well-drained garden soil is sufficient. 
Plant the bulbs not more than 4 to 5 inches deep, but 
plant as early as possible. Strong growth must be made 
before winter to produce fine flowers. Doz. 100
