BULBS AND BULB PRICES

Most of our bulbs have now ar rived and we have a large supply of bulbs for forcing and fall plant ing. All are of the best grades and highest quality obtainable. Buying direct from growers enables us to make our prices somewhat less than those asked by dealers in the. States as the comparison below shows.
 In the comparison we have Tul- ips, for all reliable dealers handle the same grade, hence prices are strictly comparable. This compari- son is made with Philadelphia seed firm, doing, perhaps, the larg est mail order business of it's kind in the country and also of a seed house doing large wholesale and retail business and importing thou sands of cases of bulbs every sea- son, with stores in New York and Chicago. One in each of several classes of Tulips with prices are for a dozen as follows:

The congressional delegation will be

Annual Event viii Mark
Tenth Anniversary Of
Society.

The annual dinner of the Society of
Natives Of the District Of Columbia,
commemorative of its tenth anniversary,
will be held the evening of April IS at
the Raleigh Hotel.
Three distinctive features are pro-
vided in the anniversary program, &C.
cording to Fred A. Emery, president Of
the society. It will commemorate the
laying of the corner stone of the Fed
eral District, down at Jones Point, be-
of a special tribute to Theodore w.
NoyeS, one of its members, and will pro-
vide a vehicle for portrayal of the
present and future Government build
ing program in the National Capital.
The principal speaker will be the
author of the Federal building program.
Representative Elliott of Indiana, chair
man of the House committee on public
buildings and public grounds. Mr.. Ell
lott will discuss what the program
means to the Washington of today and
the Washington of the future.
Each year the organization COM
memoratcs the historic incident of the
laying of of the metes and bounds Of
the original area of the District of Co
lumbia. 1t was in April, 1871, that the
corner stone of the District was laid at
Jones Point, whose quaint light house
location is today one of the landmarks
in Potomac River travel. President
Washington's proclamation by defining
the boundary lines of the new home of
the Federal Government included Jones
Point as the southern edge of the Fed
eral City. Washington's interest in the
new city has been the theme of many
addresses before patriotic organize
tions, and it has been recalled in con-
nection with the observances that
Madison and Jefferson and Monroe
took enthusiastic interest in the be-
ginningS of the Capital, serving with
Washington on the committee for Sc
lection of the site of the Federal City
The interest Of Jefferson and Monroe
was recalled in letter which Fred A.
Emery, as head of the society, has re-
ceived from Mrs. Rose Gouverneur
Hoes, a great-granddaughte of Presi-
| dent Monroe.
The chairman Of the dinner COM
mittee Is Mr.. Emery, chairman of
tickets, Miss May E. Hungerford, the
Avondale, 1884 p street; chairman of
decorations and arrangement of tables,
Irwin L. Rose. The full committee on
the dinner will be announced later.

TRAFFIC FORFEITS
ORDERED STOPPED
Motorists Seem Ignorant of Law
Requiring Appearance, Says
Judge Mcmahon.

Motorists are not allowed to forfeit
collateral and thereby avoid coming to
Traffic Court after being arrested for
speeding. Judge John P. Mcmahon
warned yesterday, in saying that at
tachments are issued for all failing to
keep appointments at court to answer
speeding charges.
Automobile drivers seem to be
ignorant of this fact, Mcmahon said
and several attachments have to be sent
out from court every day. The judge
pointed out that it may be quite in
convenient and embarrassing for the
motorist who has to be served with an
attachment. Police have no set time
for calling. They might get a person
out of bed or might force him to give
up an important engagement by serving
the order to bring him to court.
Other common trafflc charges where
the mere forfeiture of collateral is not
sufficient are, reckless driving, driving
while drunk and leaving after colliding
Mcmahon said that when a person
does not appear in court after posting
money in these cases the collateral is
automatically forfeited and he also
faces fine or imprisonment on the
charge.

DORIAN CALLS WAR.
ON ALCOHOL FLOW
Agents Are Ordered to Tighten
Lines to Stem
Diversion.

ny the Associated Press.
Prohibition enforcement officers
throughout the Nation yesterday were
ordered by Prohibition Commissioner
Doran to put forth greater efforts to
prevent diversion of industrial alcohol
to bootleg channels.
In instructions sent to officials of
the prohibition service, the commits
Sioner said that nothing was more i'm
portant from the standpoint of efTec-
tive enforcement and protection Of
public health than to deal effectively
with criminal operations based on
manipulation OF various alcohol prod
ucts.
az would like each administrator, )"
he said, particularly of those districts
where alcohol control is a problem, to
make a thorough survey of his inspec-
ten force activities with view to en-
ploying the greatest number possible on
these diversion problems. Any unusual
or new operation that comes to your
attention should be reported promptly,
as OUR ability to deal effectively with
changing conditions rests to a great
extent on the promptness and accuracy
with which we are able to note these
symptoms of changes"
The commissioner said that in no
field was there call for a display of
greater Intelligence and poise than in
the permissive field where commerce
and industry must receive considera-
ton.
Doran said that "only certain
amount of routine inspection with re-
spect 20 doctors and druggists is neces-
Sary."
Substantial quantities of synthetic
methanol Is coming into the market,
the commissioner said, and there is
some danger involved in the increased
use of this material for solvent pur-
poses.
He asserted that the usage of mixed
methanol and denatured alcohol, under
the general designation of denatured
alcohol products, was attended with
danger, as criminal operators might put
on the market illicit beverages of large
methanol content with attendant dis
astrouS results to drinkers"

ordinary young man who loved to tinker
with automobiles or take every clock In
