LILIES. Most lilies like good well drained garden soil, mixing about 14 peat 
with the soil is a good practice. In light soils plant slightly deeper than 
stated and in heavy soil a little shallower. They do better if they get 
some protection from the afternoon sun and get ample moisture. A winter 
mulch is also beneficial. The size given is the circumference of the bulb.

TUBEROUS BEGONIAS. Double Camelia Flowered. With its bright colors, 
richness of foliage and easy culture it has become a favorite in garden and 
also in homes. 
The begonia prefers partial to rather deep shade and not too warm a place, 
good drainage but kept moist. Use a generous amcunt of peat or leaf mold. 
They can be forced indoors in February, March or April to give earlier 
bloom outdoors; for indoor forcing place close together in boxes or pots ona 
light porous soil composed of mixture of at least 4% sharp sand and cover 
to a depth of one inch. The earth should be kept just moist as too much 
water will rot the bulbs. When the plants begin to appear they should be 
watered more often. At this stage they can be potted if desired. Wait until 
all danger of frost is past before planting out doors. 
The following colors are available: white, yellow, crimson, scarlet and 
pink. All are 2 inches across and up. 4€e ea; 3 at 35c ea. 
We will also have started plants at the nursery for crive in trade but these 
can not be shipped. These of course will sell for more. 
WINDBREAKS 
In our section of the midwest the windbreak is a very vital part of the 
farmstead. It adds greatly to the comfort of both the farmer and his livestock 
as well as making a substantial saving in fuel cost. It also makes the farm 
much more attractive in appearance. We suggest using some fast growing 
broad leaf trees for a quick windbreak like Chinese Elm, Mulberry, Willow, 
Ash or Russian Olive on either the front or back and a row or two of ever- 
greens for a better future shelter.
