the bulbs. Cover the bulbs with about 4 inches of soil; should be mulched in late fall. Select, Blooming-

HOW TO PLANT growth and best blooms. Plant your water 
WATER LILIES lilies in a box, wooden pail or tub, using 
one-fourth well rotted manure to three-fourth garden loam. Cover 
the roots carefully, the crown even with the surface, then tamp 
one inch layer of sand or gravel over the top to keep water clean. 
Start in shallow water, increasing the depth to 8 or 12 inches as 
plant becomes established. Each lily should have at least one 
cubic foot of soil. A pool six by six will nicely accommodate four 
lilies and the necessary floating and bog plants. 
FERRIS WATER LILIES AND PLANTS ARE ALL POSTPAID. Grown 
in northern ponds, they are ready to ship in late April or May.
