This is positively the inst can fer slanting outdoor bulbs, except possibly in a few southerly districts 0f Olhfldl where there is not mugh frost before December. Good re. sults can be obtained, however, if we canset our tulips. daffodils, crocussel. hyacinths and so on planted before the ground m,“ hard. although for best results it lg well to have these in before this as 801119 I009 Srowth is possible then, we have a wider selection of var- ieties and there is no risk o: winter 599991!!! in and preventing our PIIYIUHB altogether. However, there is no compensation at this late date.- Usually at the end of the season prices are reduced in order to clear out the remaining stock, but of course we have not; the selection, most poplllar var- ieties having been sold cut. Plant in clumps o.‘ at least half a down bulbs oi one variety. With tulips, place the "' early flowering type about three inches deep in clay and four in lighter soil, with the later rnd, taller Dal-wins god Breeders Boing in a little deeper. Place about from five to eight inches apart in the clump. Daffo- dils and hyacinths should bs plant- ed about two inches deep and the crocusses only about half an inch. The latter will bloom a few days after the snow dislppears and be- cause of this they are often planted through the lawn where they are among the first things to gladden the eye after the long winter. The early tulips, dafifodllg and hyaelnths come on from two weeks to a month llter while the big, late tulips will bloom from May until well on in June ii the proper selection is made of early, medium and late varieties.

Of course for indoor bloom we can go on planting bulbs right on until ffanuary. This is a most satisfactory form of gardening as good results are guaranteed ii we get high quality bulbs and follow a few simple directions. Moreover, while flowers are welcome at any time they are never admired quite so much es when they are no longer possible outside. For indoor bloom, select thosg tulips sepcially recommended for forcing, which will mean varieties in the early types. If we want our hyacinths in a. hurry it will also be necessary to take those particularly specified in the bulb catalogue for early bloom. The paper-white Narcissus will come into flower first, averag- ing about nine _weeks from the time they are plnnted, and because of this bowls of them can be plant- ed in succession. to start blooming around Christmas and continuing at weekly or fortrflghtly intervals right through until spring. ‘tulips, hyaclnths and daffodils require from two and a half to four months. depending upon the variety, before blooming. These bulbs can be planted in fibre, or soil, while some of them such as the hyacinth, paper-white nrr- cissus and Chinese Lily will do well in pebbls or just plain water with a few pieces of charcoal. The water should be changed about every eight days to keep it sweet. In iancy bowls or galiy wrapped

Your motto “Pro Regs-lege- grege" so rich in meaning is the sure harbinger of your devoted ,service towards the country you have come to guide.

"Your Excellency comes to our shores at a time of the year when Nature, radiating her colorful beau- ty, proclaims that our Island is one of the most charming spots in North America.
