in boxes with damp moss AS soon
as the boxes are unpacked, in Boston

Mrs. Fowler ships more lilies to Bos-

reason the florists there seem best to
understand handling them profitably.
There are only'a few precautions to
be taken in keeping water lilies. so

strong wind or the breeze from an
electric fan can blow directly on the

House Ways and Means Chairman Ap-
prise President Of House Action
Rejecting Sales Tax to
Finance Bonus.

Washington Postponement OF
House action on the soldier bonus bill
for while longer was suggested by
Representative Mondell, Wyoming,
the Republican leader, after he and
Chairman Fordney, of the Ways and
Means committee, had conferred with
President Harding at the White
House.
Emphasizing that the suggestion
was his own, Mr.. Mondell said it was
well known that the House intended
to pass bonus measure at this ses-
sion and that little delay might
serve ito clear the skies" He ex-
planned that within-a short time there
probably would be more definite in
formation as to expected savings in
expenditures for the next fiscal year;
returns from the foreign debt and
whether business conditions could be
expected to improve to the extent OF
insuring additional federal revenues.
Confer With President.
Mr.. Mondell and Mr.. Fordney were
understood to have appraised the Presi-
dent formally of the action Of the spe-
cial House subcommittee in rejecting
the executives proposal that the
bonus be financed by sales tax and
approving instead bill without any
definite means of raising the revenue.
They would not indicate what views
the executive had expressed, but Rep
resentative Longworth of Ohio, a
member of the committee dealing
with the bonus question, said after a
visit to the White House that Mr..
Harding still was Of the opinion that
the legislation either should be
financed by a sales tax or postponed.
