ON RUMORS OF

Chicago, Ill, Feb. 29.-Assertions
that the new German note opened
a way to avert a break with the
United States helped to rally the
price of wheat. The market, how

followed by a general upturn to
2A cents above yesterdays finish

Planting Bulbs for Spring.

For the amateur, success with spring
Towering bulbs is more certain than with
any other class of plants. Their require
ments are few and easily supplied and
their culture is simple. Once planted
most of them will take care Of them
selves, needing little more to insure their
health and vigor and to produce their
graceful flowers than winter mulch of
leaves Many of them, too, will increase
from year to year if undisturbed and
so bear more flowers with the advent of
each new spring.
1t is well, too, for residents of rural
districts who live within marketing dis
tance of the larger towns and cities to
remember that the flowers of such bulbs
as the tulip and the narcissus have a
salea BILE value that is steadily increas-
ing every year. The first years crop
of flowers oftentimes sell for enough to
pay the original cost OF the bulbs, and
in addition, the cost of setting them
out
Those easiest grown are, fortunately,
those that bear the flowers that are most
in demand. These are the daffodls and
narcissi. Nothing could be simpler than
their cultivation. And they are to be
had. also, in such a bewlidering number
of varieties that a succession of bloom
can be maintained with them extending
from mid-April to mid May. Obviously,
it is well both the early and late bloom
ers, not only for commercial purposes,
but for garden decoration as well. And
since the list contains many sorts from
which to choose, and planting will be-
gin in September and end in October, |
catalogues must be got at once and |
studied and the order made up and for |
warded to the dealer. This applies to |
all the spring Towering bulbs that are
planted in the autumn. Nurserymen, as
, rule, have their catalogues ready for
early in the month-some
