HOW TO PLANT 
In light and sandy soil bulbs should be plant¬ 
ed a little deeper and a good supply of well rot¬ 
ted manure worked into the soil before the bulbs 
are planted will aid very materially in produc¬ 
ing beautiful blooms. 
FOR INDOOR CULTURE 
For indoor planting bulbs should be potted 
as soon as possible and then left out in the 
open, covered with a few inches of soil until 
.freezing weather, and tnen brought into the 
collar or other sheltered place where the tem¬ 
perature is not over 50 degrees, but, of course, 
not freezing. Keep in the dark until the roots 
are well established and then they may be 
brought to the light and will flower from time 
to time till Easter.
