NO DWELLER in the country should be without a generous bed of lilies-of-the-valley. In high and in lowly 
gardens these simple, fragrant flowers have ever been among the most welcomed of the year. In early times the dried- 
off, distilled blossoms were deemed a cure for many “griefs” of the flesh, and while our faith in their potency may 
be less firm today, surely it is true that when we come unexpectedly upon the slender stems of frosted, scented bells 
hiding among the bright green leaves we receive refreshment for the mind and the spirit. 
The lily-of-the-valley is essentially a shade-loving plant. Beds should be given a northern or northwestern ex¬ 
posure if possible, and the most desirable soil is a rich, sandy loam. In planting, the clumps should be set about 
three inches apart and about two inches below the surface. A dressing of well-rotted manure and leaf mold in the 
autumn after leaves have died down will insure more and finer flowers in the spring. The roots of this fair flower 
are poisonous. 
LILY-OF-THE-VALLEY CLUMPS. Their importation having been restricted, they are very scarce. 
Extra heavy clumps for immediate effect, $8.00 for 10; $35.00 for 50; $68.00 per 100.
