HOUSE OR ROOM GARDENING 
When our materials are used the following hints on culti¬ 
vation should be followed: Sprinkle fibre, which should be 
thoroughly moistened, over the bottom of the bowl to a 
depth of IVz inches, carefully place the bulbs upon the fibre, 
taking care that they do not touch each other, then fill 
up the bowl with fibre. Although it is desirable that the 
fibre should be all around the bulbs, it must not be 
packed too tightly, and must cover the top of the bulbs. 
Start the bulbs into growth by thoroughly saturating 
the fibre with water, drain off and keep moist; then place 
the bowl in an airy room or shelf in a subdued light. 
When the young growth pierces the fibre, the bulbs may 
be placed on a table near a window or some other light 
place to mature their growth and come into flower.
