SPECIAL NOTE on L. speciosum: Since L. speciosum does 
not arrive until late November or early December, we suggest 
that you dig the holes for these Lilies in advance, before the 
soil freezes. Fill the holes with salt hay. When the Lilies are 
delivered, you will not be confronted with the planting problem 
should the ground be frozen. 


RODENT CONTROL. Protect your new bulb plantings 
from moles, mice, and rats by treating them with arsenate 
of lead paste before planting. Mix arsenate of lead with 
water to the consistency of a pudding. Dip bulbs into this 
solution at time of planting. Lb. 60c, 4lbs. $1.60.
