Planting Bulbs in the Fall

in growth. The double early var
ieties come into flower about the
same time, and like the single type
are of a dwarf character. They are
followed by the single late varieties
and the tall Darwin types. The OAR
wins are by far the finest and show
lest of the entire family, growing tall
often reaching two feet in height
and with large well formed blooms,
which are invaluable for cutting pur-
poses. The beds of Darwins at the
court house, in Hill park and in the
grounds of G. B. Power called forth a
host of admirers this last season, and
there were many others.
"'The narcissus family is large
one-and perhaps the best known is
the easily grown paper white mar
cissus, which is, however, not hardy
in this section. But as a winter
plant for the house, doing equally
we'll in rocks and water or in soil,
treated as given for hyacinths for
house culture, its results are sure, if
good bulbs are procured. The Chi
nese Sacred Lily is another of this
class of Narcissi, doing equally we'll
in water or soil But it is in the
hardy narcissi (daffodils and jon
quils) that Montana should special
ize. These can be planted in clumps
in the shrubbery, or in open spaces
beneath trees, or in any likely spot,
and allowed to remain for years,
spreading and making masses of glo-
rious color almost as soon as the
snow has departed.
Narcissus Varieties
Among the best varieties are Sir
Watkin, often called the Chalice
flower, with butter yellow perianth
and rich golden crown; Emperor, one
of the largest in cultivation, entire
flower of a rich yellow; Empress,
with a large rich yellow trumpet,
and perianth of pure white; Golden
Spur, with deep yellow perianth and
golden yellow trumpet; Won Sion,
the we'll known double yellow daffo-
dill; Victoria Bicolor, a splendid
large flower for both indoor and out
door use, with yellow trumpet and
creamy white perianth. In what is
known as the Poetaz class of mar
eissi, also perfectly hardy, is Narcis-
sus Poeticus Ornatus, pure white
with red cup. This variety should
be one of those freely planted for
anywhere in Montana
'Crocus- perhaps one of the earli-
est bulbs to flower in the spring, are
invaluable for borders and edging,
and also for planting right in the
lawns, coming through and flower
ing before it is necessary to cut the
grass.
zone vital thing to remember in
bulbs of any kind is to SCI
cure them only from firms or people
that know bulbs, as there are anil
nually dumped on the American mar
kets at whatever price they will
bring, enormous quantities of second
class and inferior bulbs of many
kinds. The purchase of these can
only result in disappointment to the

For Better BeekeeperS

based on the fact that man cannot
change the nature of bees and the
better he understands them and their
responses to different stimuli the
better beekeeper he will become. If
he is acquainted with their habits
then it will be an easy matter for him
to devise apparatus and methods ap-
plicable to his needs. In those col
leges where beekeeping is taught,
apiaries are usually maintained
where the student is enabled to se-
cure actual practice in the manipu-
lation of bees in conjunction with his
class room instruction.
Lack Trained Men
"Of the As states, 20 are at pres
ent conducting courses on the sub
ject of Bookkeeping. In 10 colleges
there is but one course given; in
seven there are two; in three there
are four, and in two eight courses
are offered. Five other colleges are
carrying on extension work, cores
pondence courses, or short courses
for the benefit of agriculture. The
courses vary in Importance accord
ing to the amount of time allowed
for presentation. The tendency is
toward installing a greater number
of courses which will provide for
more thorough instruction in the sub
ject.
cat present the colleges are ham
pered in the carrying out of this plan
by the lack of well trained men. AS
students are constantly being grad
uated each year, this objection should

tistics given as to the number of
courses devoted to agriculture apply
to present conditions, they probably
would not hold true year from
now, due to the increased demand for
instruction in the subject of beekeep-
ing. AS it is the purpose of the col
leges to train their students as spe-
cialists, they will be qualified to act
as teachers, investigators, or to en-
gage in commercial beekeeping.
Research Stressed
"The teaching of beekeeping in
our colleges is very important. but
the necessity for and the value of
agricultural research in the expert
ment stations must not be overlook
ed. The research workers of today
are proving the truth or falsity of
old theories and adding new facts
to our present knowledge of beekeep-
ing. OF all the chronological pro-
jects in the experiment stations of
the country, those devoted to bee
keeping rank second in number, CON
stituting nearly one-half of the prob

What bulbs to plant in this eli
mate and how to produce good HOW
ers are told by George w. Ascough
of the State Nursery & Seed COM
pany in connection with Bulb Plant
ing week, which is being observed
in the capital city under the direc-
tion of the home economics Depart
ment of the Helena Womans cluD-
Ascoughs purpose is to instruct
those who have never planted bulbs
and to correct many mistaken Ideas
about bulb flowers. He says:
Fall bulbs=the very name carries
with it the tang of frost and thought
that our brilliant summer flowers
are about to take their departure
for another season; that it is time
to clean up for the winter and to
plant both for outdoor spring flow
ering and for the late winter months
for the house, these wonderful bulbs
that can and do give so much pleas
ure long before any other flowers
make their appearance.
"The list of bulbs is a long one
too long for any ordinary newspaper
article, but hyacinths, tulips, narcis-
sus (including dafodils and Jonqulls
as they are better known-and GRO
Gus, in their many varieties are the
most useful and the best adapted
to our climatic conditions.
"Hyacinths should not be planted
outdoors in Montana unless in a
sheltered spot and then well protect
ed by heavy mulch. The writer
has grown them successfully on the
north side of the house in this man
ner, in Helena. For the house, plant
them in pots, singly or, say, three
bulbs in a six-inch pot, place them in
the cellar where it is dark and cool.
until they have formed good ball
of roots, before bringing them to the
light and warmth. This root growth
is absolutely necessary to secure the
best results with any of the so-called
Dutch or French bulbs. Do not at
tempt to keep them too warm-a
slower growth will result in better
flowers. Hyacinths may also be
grown we'll in water, in the so-called
hyacinth glasses, care being taken to
let only the root ring at the bottom
of the bulb come into contact with
the water.
The Tulip Family
Tulips can be treated in the same
manner for early Towering in the
house, but will rot do well in water.
They require good soil to get their
best development. Outdoors they
are unequaled for the wonderful
early spring showing they make. The
beds in Helena at the court house,
in Hill park, this last spring, and
also in many of the beautiful private
grounds, notably those of Mr.. c. B.
Power, showed most conclusively that
these beautiful and inexpensive
spring flowers will do equally as
well in Montana as in any section
Of the United States. The single
early varieties are as their name in

into flower, and as a rule are dwarf

Bookkeeping in America is in a
state of transition, passing from the
small Indifferent beekeeper into the
hands of the trained specialist or
commercial beekeeper, according to
paper by DR.. j. H. Merrill, state
apiarist of Kansas, read at the sixth
International Congress of Agriculture,
at Marseilles, France, last month.
The subject of Doctor Merrills paper
was Education Along Beekeeping
Lines in the United States" He was
one of small group of Americans
honored by being requested to pre-
pare a paper for the congress.
with this awakening" the paper
continues, "has come an increased
demand for some method of procur-
ing and disseminating information
on Bookkeeping. In an effort to meet
this demand, the agricultural coli
leges throughout the country are es-
tablishing courses on agriculture and
the investigators in the various state
experiment stations are devoting con-
siderable time to research work in
Bookkeeping.
Taught in High Schools
Doctor Merrill's paper, in part,
follows:
"The subject of beekeeping is more
or less briefly taught in many OF the
high schools. But it is not possible
to do much more there than simply
to arouse the pupils interest in bee
keeping. The real teaching of api-
culture properly falls on the agri-
cultural colleges.
''In most of the colleges where
beekeeping is taught, an effort is
made to thoroughly instruct the stu
dents in a knowledge of bee beha-
vior rather than apparatus and prac-
tees. This method of procedure is

Montana and especially the north
ern part of the state, this year will
provide the big baked potatoes for
some of the finest hotels of the east
ern cities, according to Oshey De-
vine of the firm of Devine & Asset
slime, of Great Falls, which already
has sold 80 carloads of fancy grades
for this purpose.
The potatoes sold are little bet
ter than the U. S. grade No. and
are the big bakers weighing from
10 to Is ounces. The trade built up
by this firm for this grade is the
result of former sales, last year hav-
ing found market for about Is car
loads. The result of the satisfaction
given by the former sales has doubl-
ed the calls. This year the quality
offered is the best in the history
of the trade and Devine said he ex-
poets a substantial increase in sales
to follow next year.
Premium is Paid
The fancy grades are bringing the
Montana growers a substantial prof
it, netting the growers about 60
cents bushel, as compared with 40
cents a bushel received by Idaho
growers of U. S. No. 1.
A large part of the fancy potatoes
are coming from the colony of Idaho
growers who settled on the Chestnut
valley project near Cascade this
spring Devine said the farmers are
now being urged to grow as large an
acreage as they desire next season
and the firm will develop the market
for them
"The reason for the success of
these settlers lies not only in the fact
that they are using good seed but
also in the fact that they are real
potato men, said Devine. ''They
know how to grade potatoes and
there is no Judging with them / was

of settlers are going to play a big |
part in the development of this coun- |
try. They will be followed by others |
and the care in growing and prepare
tion for the market are going to !,

Graded in Field
'There is no great expense attach
ed to grading out these fancy grades
when the grader knows his business.
One man is sent into the field with
the pickers, taking only the fancy
stuff, while the other pickers take
what remain. Not only are we mar
keting the fancy product but we will
handle all of the other potatoes from
this settlement with the exception of
160 acres already contracted to a
Chicago firm. We are on a par with
Idaho growers on the Twin City mar
ket and we will get prices as the
market warrants.
"Most of the cars we already have
sold will be moving during this week,
although the car situation is not so
good. We expect additional sales
as the hotel demand grows. Hotel
men are looking for cheaper potatoes
which they will no doubt get later, {
