The Philadelphia Record calls attention to
the fact that Major L'Enfant is not entitled to
sole credit for the architectural plans followed
in the creation OF Washington. Associated with
I'Enfant was Major Andrew Ellicott, of Penn
syIvauia. formerly Surveyor General OF that
state. Both were employed by the commission
ers for the federal district but LEnfant quar-
relied with the commission and was discharged
In 1892. Ellicott remained until the new capltal
was made ready for occupancy and was respon-
sibIe for alterations in L Enfant's plans and ad-
ditions to them. He was therefore an important
factor in designing and creating the city Of
Washington.

~ seeming room or church Is decld-
edly different from the overpowerlng
fragrance exhaled by a field of bios
SONS thirty or forty acres in extent"
This industry is said to be much
more profitable than raising potatoes,
onions or fruits, as an acre of lilies
will bring three or four times the rev:
enue to be obtained from an acre Of
onions, although crop Of vegetables
can be raised at any time throughout
the year in this land Of perpetual
spring.
Certain rules prevail regarding the
growth that must be attained by a lily
bulb for the market, and It usually re-
quires three years to bring the bulbs
to the required size and perfection for
shipment. The bulbs are collected dur
ing June and July and carefully
packed in dry sand to insure their safe
arrival in condition to force into
flower when required.
The fields of blossoms attain their
perfection during the early part Of
April, continuing to cover the land
with white blooms for six weeks or
longer. The wharf from which
steamer starts for New York twice
a week is the scene of great activity.
Cold storage accommodations are pro-
vided for the bulbs. which are care
fully packed in boxes with layers Of
damp moss or ferns. IN addition to
tissue paper, which protects the bulbs
from cracks or breaks on the white
surface. All the work must be got
through with almost Incredible swift
ness as 1t Is done the day before the
steamer sails, in order to avoid keep
ing the flowers packed longer than
necessary. Sometimes a belated packer
will arrive short time before the hour
set for sailing and. being too late to
pack the blossoms. win stack them nj,
around the side Of the cold storage
room and trust to luck for their safe
arrival. Not lnfrequently the steamer
arrives at New York with $4,000
worth Of bulbs aboard.

Second Crop Irish Potatoes.

After digging the first crop, the
potatoes intended for seed for the
second crop should be stored in g
dry, cool place. They may be
spread out ON the barn floor and
covered with straw, hay or dry
sand. The second crop Of Irish
potatoes is usually planted during
the latter part of July or first half
of August. For two or three weeks
before planting the seed potatoes
are sometimes exposed to heat and
moisture which hastenes sprouting
and may aid in securing better
stand.
If the potatoes are sprouting at
planting time it may be well to cut
them, otherwise probably it is best
not to cut them.
AS the weather is usually hot and
sometimes dry at the season the
second crop is planted, they should
be planted rather deeply in a we'll
rich soil. Rolling after
planting is advised to compact the
soil which has been loosened by
preparation Raleigh
