TIPS ON TULIP CULTURE 
It is better to plant deep than 
shallow. In heavy clay soils plant 
from 5 to 8 inches deep, in light, 
sandy soils 7 to 10 inches. Do not 
mix manure or other undecomposed 
Organic matter in the soil around 
or directly under the bulbs. Such 
material should be mixed into the 
subsoil to a depth of 20 inches or 
more. A layer of top soil 2 inches 
deep should separate the bottom of 
the bulb from the organic matter. 
In latitudes north of New York 
City apply mulching material only 
after hard frost has set in. Best 
planting date October Ist to No- 
vember 25th. Planting can be con- 
tinued safely through the entire 
month of December, weather per- 
mitting.
