BULBS FOR NEXT SPRING

If you would have rich beds OF tulip
or give the beds or the corners of your
lawns beautiful springlike yellow or
white glow of narcissus, daffodil and
jonquil, you must begin to think Of
the early spring appearance of your
garden in the fall, for the bulbs Of
these two flowers must be planted in
the fall before the ground is frozen
In fact, this work should be under
taken as soon as or before an early
frost has begun to make the annual
flowers in the beds look weakened. In
dealing with narcissus, which is the
family to which the daffodil and jon
quill belong, it might be well to think
Of trying to naturalize the narcissus
to grow and blossom on the lawn much
as do the wild flowers. How to plant
and handle the bulbs, as well as the
best method Of getting them to be-
come spring residents Of grassy cor
ners, are described in the following
directions issued by the bulb special
lists of the United States department
of agriculture:
These bulbs should be planted in
light, rich soil that has been dug to
a depth CT at least 10 inches. The
tulip bulbs should be set 5 inches
apart and 4 inches deep and the Ear-
cissus bulbs about 10 inches apart and
inches deep.
II they are to be grown in pots or
window boxes, light, rich soil should
be used. Place one or two inches Of
cinders or broken pots in the bottom
of the pots or boxes to insure good
drainage. After planting, place the
pots or boxes out Of doors and cover
them with about four inches Of ashes
or sand; or they may be placed in a
dark, cool room or cellar for few
weeks until the bulbs have formed a
quantity of roots. They may then be
brought into the light and heat for
Towering. Keep the soil we'll
noistened from time of planting, but
avoid oyermoistening, for if kept too
wet the bulbs will decay.
Cultivation.
II planted in beds, the surface of the
soil should be loosened after each rain
and the bed kept free from weeds,
In the late fall or early winter months
it is we'll to cover the beds with a
light mulch of straw or leaves to pre-
vent injury to the young roots from
the alternate freezing and thawing of
the soil. This mulch should be grad
ually removed III spring, as soon as
growth appears above ground The
bulbs are quite hardy and are not in
Iured by severe cold If the soil is
well drained.
Lifting and Dividing.
Tulip and narcissus plants are
perennial, and If given proper care
and grown under suitable soil and
climatic conditions will increase and
multiply from year to year. The bulbs
may remain in the ground two or
three years, or until the clumps begin
to crowd, After blossoming in the
spring, from six to eight weeks
should elapse to allow the foliage to
die partially down, when the bulbs
may be lifted with a spade or fork.

Notwithstanding much publicity
was given the statewide prohibition
act passed by the last Legislature, It
is evedent that many people in Arkan-

Going law is the only statute in force

Going law was not repealed by the
Newberry act, but made cumulative,
no petitions for the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors can be presented to coun-
ty courts from and after January l.,
