 General, the noun, and the adjective general, the antonym of particular, go back to the Latin generalis, meaning belonging to race or kind, and itself tracing to genus genera, from gigners, to beget. Generals in Caesars and Pompey's day had nothing to do with the army the Roman general was an imperator. The title general prima- rily means an officer holding a gen. eral command.

THE TIGER LILY

Characterized in Bailey's Encyclo-
media of Horticulture as zone of the
hardest. most permanent and most
easily grown of all lilies and further
more one of the most beautiful, there
is no doubt that this lily deserves
greater attention from home garden
ers. Perhaps, like many other
worthy plants, it's comparative abund-
ance and ease of growing has made
the tiger lily less desired than inferior
but rarer forms. AS matter OF fact
there are many of the new and more
expensive lilies which are by no
means as beautiful. No lily is more
easily grown and once established
more likely to remain year after year
irrespective of care. In fact, in GER
tain parts of New England and New
York and probably elsewhere in this
country, this lily has become natural
lied and exists as an escape from the
garden.
Propagation is effected by means of
numerous bulblets produced in the
axis of the leaves or by division OF
the parent bulb. DR.. A. B. Stout OF
the New York Botanical Gardens
found that tiger lily flowers, despite
the fact that they have perfect plstlls
and pollen, never produce seed. How
ever, when cross pollinated with Ger
tain other lilies, seed was obtained,

TIMELY SUGGESTIONS

The purple heliotrope beds in front
of the east wing Of the Department
of Agriculture are just about as near
perfection as could possibly be. Com
bning beauty and a delightful frag-
rance it is no wonder that the hello
trope is such a cherished flower
From earliest Spring to late Fall
there Is always some interesting
flower or plant to be seen in the
perennial beds in front of the main
Agricultural Building. Just now the
abelia shrub is reaching full beauty.
Literally covered with dainty flowers,
this plant makes a charming and at
tractive object, well worthy of more
extended planting.
The climbing roses should be pruned
now if this important task has not
already been accomplished. Most OF
the climbers are now sending forth
strong. new shoots from the base or
from old stems. These should be
carefully protected during the pruning
operations, cutting out old wood
which lowered the past Spring.
Much labor may be saved in celery
growing if the plants are set in the
bottom of shallow trench rather
than at ground level. This method
of planting facilitates watering the
newly set plants and later, as the
plants reach full size, it is much
easier to bank with soil. The bottom
of the trench should be prepared by
spading in manure or good COM
mercial fertilizer for celery lives up
to it's frequent characterization as "a
gross feeder" This is an opportune
time for setting out celery plants.

Gardening in Washington

AND ITS ENVIRONS

favorable for the resumption Of
growth For the home gardener the
white potato is perhaps the most
striking example of a plant requiring
a rest period. Potatoes dug at this
season from the early paintings cannot
be induced to resume growth for sew
eral weeks. For this reason late po-
tatoes are grown from seed stock held
over from the preceding year.
For the gardener with only ordinary
storage facilities, it is almost impos-
sible to hold potatoes until next sea-
son without considerable sprouting
and shrinkage from rots. Realizing
that if it were possible to overcome
the rest period, it would be quite a
blessing to potato growers, investi-
gators have been trying in the past
few years to discover some treatment
that would effect this purpose and
have met with partial success. I'M
mersion Of the tubers in solutions of
certain chemicals has been found to
shorten the rest period considerably,
and although the processes of treat
ment have not been worked out in
practical way. it appears to be only
question of time when the potato
grower will be in position to benefit
directly from these studies.

MONTREAL MUSKMELONS|

Although the great commercial
muskmelon-producin sections are TO-
Gated in regions of long Summers, II
is interesting to note that some or
the finest muskmelonS are produced
near the northern limits OF range Tor
this plant. Near Montreal, Canada,
there is a small area in which musk
melon production has reached a hlgn
degree of perfection. According to
Dr0 William Stuart, who made care
ful study of the industry some years
ago, melons weighing 20 pounds each
are not at all uncommon and because
of their size and quality command
high prices on the markets. The aver
age weight ranges from to 10 pounds.
Quite obviously the outdoor growing
season is not long enough to mature
these melons. Hence seed is SoWn in
late February in green houses or IN
carefully constructed hot beds well
supplied with fresh heating horse
manure and protected with high walls
from the chilling winds. The young
nlants are transplanted into pots so
that root growth may not be checked.
In late May the plants are moved to
frames in the open field. Though con-
structed with less care, the field
frames are nevertheless provided with
horse manure for warmth and glass
for protection. Only a few melons
are allowed to develop per vine and
each melon is carefully turned from
time to time to secure uniform net
ting and color. AS the days grow
warmer the glass is gradually raised
to allow more ventilation until finally
in July the glass is removed altogether.
Ripening begins in late July and con-
tinues through August. The amount
of hand labor involved must be neces-
sarily very large and expensive but is
rewarded in unusually fine melons and
premium prices.

from the results Of freezing injuries
which kill back much of the younger
wood.
The behavior of the English walnut
is so doubtful that c. A. Reed, in
charge of nut Investigations for the
Department Of Agriculture, does not
recommend their culture in this vi
cinity, but suggests in their stead
trial of some of the improved black
walnuts, especially those kinds with
thin shells. 1t is strange that the
English walnut does well in certain
localities much further North, there
being a fine orchard near Lockport,
y. Y. 1t may be that this walnut does
not ripen it's wood sufficiently in this
vicinity to withstand severe Winter
freezes. or it may be that the proxim
ity of the Loctport trees to Lake On
tario may in some way protect them
from the Winter cold.

showing the tiger lily to be self
sterile but not cross sterile. The bulb
lets produced in the leaf axis are
equivalent to seeds, growing readily
and, in fact, coming up so thickly
about the parent plant as to require
removal.
The tiger lily is now coming into
full bloom, apparently relishing the
Midsummer heat which is unfavor
able to so many other flowers.
