EARLY WORK IN BULB GARDEN
By JULIE ADAMS POWELL.

With the first warm days the bulb ous plants spring up, and many be- ginner has tried in vain to push them back until warm weather.
 As rule it is best to let nature be dictator. Hardy bulbs will endure lots of cold; and if they do sometimes get helplessly nipped of flower buds by undue haste, there is more frequently damage done to the roots by trying to curb the growth.
 Do not be in hurry to remove the leaves which should have been their winter coverlet. Loosen them up grad ually, taking care that the plants are not smothering. If the weather con- tinues fine, work the loose leaves a little more into the soil every day, thus gradually making the change.
 There is less drain upon the bulbs if the blossoms are picked as soon as they commence to wither.
 Look to it that the ditches and drains are in good order.
 Some cut the tops from hyacinths as soon as the leaves turn yellow, remove them, and plant annuals. This is a very neat way of getting rid of the bulbs-and most effectually, as rule But if you wish hyacinths another year, there is better way, unless you can afford to purchase new bulbs.
 Those discolored leaves are neces- sity to the plant while ripening the bulbs, and if they cannot be tolerated a permissible compromise is to trans plant the bulbs to some out-of-the-way corner of the yard, where they can ripen in peace. They may then be dried and packed away for autumn planting.
 It is better to replant the hardy bulbs at least once in two or three years, else they become too thickly matted. Besides the soil needs re- newal of fertilizer; an this can never be so well done as when the bed is empty.
 There Is often complaint that the old-fashioned white narcissus poeti- GUS blasts in the bud. This is usually 1Cl4Ca1Ca Oy AC6OILln6 t40 UuU0 WAlSu have become matted together.
 If you have a number of varieties of tulips and more time and patience than money to buy new varieties, there is often much pleasure in grow ing tulips from seed. Some of the soft shades of old-rose have been in our own garden evolved from the cross-fertilization of standard forms There is a pleasure, too, in watching the unfolding of the unknown. New varieties purchased Of seedsmen are always announced and their beauties described; but these seedlings are positively new, and some of them are strikingly beautiful.
 If in planting your tulips, carmine and scarlet are in painful contrast, mark the one for removal at the prop CT season. Some flowers show only harmony in varietal colors, but the tulip cannot be classed among these.

Good Specimen of a Healthy DahIia.
TO GROW DALLAS

Plant them, if there is no danger of frost, outdoors about. three feet apart each way, not In too rich ground; then when they commence to grow get good stick, broom-handle is good, and tie them up with either cotton cloth or rafia.
 It is best to raise them with single stem; take half the branches off, so the air and light will circulate well around the plants, as they take time to make large plants.
 Place some sticks over them and attack a piece of canvas sheet or blanket to protect them from the first frost The plants thus protected last four weeks longer, and it pays for the labor, because you get the finest flow CTS and lots of them. The tuber gets ripe better, too.
 When the dahlias are killed by frost, cut out the tops; do not dip them too early; wait until the hard frost comes. They can stand until November 15. They also get more nourishment from the ground. When you dig them be careful not to bruise them. Let them stay in the sun to dry, then put them in their winter quarters; cellar that is frost-proof is good place. Cover them with sand, but if your cellar has concrete floors or Is too cold, they will get mildew and die. Put some boards on the bottom.
 One should SOW some dahlia seed; they grow much stronger than either tubers or cuttings, and one is we'll repaid. The seeds sown in early spring will flower from the middle of July until frost; those that do not suit can be thrown away, and the best ones can be kept over for another season.
 If the season is a dry one some of the plants in the garden will have to be watered if you want flowers from them. This is especially true of the dahlia.
 Use enough water to penetrate all the soil in which their roots grow, and see that it is kept moist.
 Watering today and neglecting for a week to come isn't the proper thing. Save the suds from wash-day for this purpose. The soap in the water will benefit the plants.
 Be sure to supply substantial sup port for your dahlias. If this is not done you will be likely to find them broken some morning after sudden wind or a hard rain-storm.
 The stakes should be at least four feet tall-allow an extra foot and a half for insertion in the ground-and they should be at least an inch through and of good sound wood.
 Paint them dull green and they will not be unpleasantiy obtrusive. Tie the stalks to them with broad strips of cloth instead of strings. The latter will cut into the tender branches when they are whipped by the wind.

WATCH THE YOUNG TREES

Young trees should be watched and the open spaces in the ground about them, which have been made by the wind swaying the trees, should be well f1rmed down.
 This is important before the heavy winds of spring.

MAKE THE GARDEN NEAT

Too much stress cannot be laid upon neatness in the garden. If faded flowers and fallen leaves are allowed to accumulate, the charm that should characterize 1t is gone, and no amount of bloom can make up for the lack of care which is thus made manifest.
