BULBS SHOULD GO
SLOWLY INTO SUN
Usual Length Of Time to Blossom
Of Plant Is About Three
Weeks, Says Expert.
BY ELLEN EDDY SHAW.

When bulbs are brought from the
darkness into the light they should go
slowly into direct sunlight. AS soon as
buds appear on the bulbs put them
into the direct sunlight. Usually the
length of time from the taking out of
the dark and cold to poisoning Is
about three weeks. The length of
time Of any blossom depends largely
on the bulb itself. Oftentimes our hya-
cinths will last quite a long time, while
crocuses last only short time. Some
times a bulb will send up second
flower stalk.
Regardless of this, what are We to
do with these bulbs which have been
so forced? For all pot culture Of bulbs
comes under the head Of forcing-that
a great deal Of life and vigor Is taken
from them. Bulbs which are planted
In the outdoor garden are not forced.
They lie quietly throughout the Win
ter season down in the ground waiting
for their time to come, and gradually
sending out their roots and getting
ready for the Spring opening, which Is
very normal So when these bulbs are
placed in flower pots they are urged
away from their natural bent.
inexpensive bulbs like paper white
narcissus when forced in stones and
water had better be thrown away after
bloom. Their life Is practically over
But bulbs like tulips and hyacinths,
some of them expensive and fine vari-
cites, should not be cast aside when
the poisoning period is over. Allow
the bulb to go on drying and fading
for a week and more. Water 1t only
occasionally. Keep it this way until
the whole family rises up In arms and
insists that these bulbs be gotten rid
Of Then keep them little longer
When the patience of the entire
family is exhausted unpot the bulb,
cut all foliage and flower stalk off to
within an inch Of the bulb itself. Shake
of the soil from the roots and place
the bulbs on a paper in the sunshine,
allowing them to dry out.
When they are completely dried OF,
shake off the rest of the soil remaining
on the roots and pack the bulbs away
either in bags or tin boxes, putting
them in cool place until next Fall.
They should then go into the outdoor
garden

is $3,O92, 500
Dodge Survey Shows Total for

$3.50, 141, 200.

Reviewing construction activities in

classes of construction in these 81
States. OF this amount December ac-
counted for 26 per cent Of the total for
the quarter. Contract awards in the final
quarter Of 1880 aggregated $3.50, IT'S, 800.
Residential building, during the last
quarter of the year, showed contracts
totaling $141 1894, 900. This was some
what less than 81 per cent Of the total
of all construction awards, whereas In
the final quarter Of 1880 residential
contracts amounted to s256,363, 800, or
almost 81 per cent Of the total of all
construction awards.
Non-residential building represented
a somewhat higher percentage of the
whole during the final quarter Of the
year just ended than during 1880,
1901, 1853, 500 for this class, representing
80 per cent of all construction under
taken, while in the like period of 1880

FORTUNES FOUNDED
ION BUSINESS LANDS
Real Estate Holdings Remain
Intact for Generations,
Board Report Says.

Almost all noted private fortunes that
have remained intact for four or five
generations were built on investment in
business real estate, the National As
ISOLATION of Real Estate Boards reports
in its 1920 of series Of stories for the
public. --
The most famous of these fortunes
were started with modest investments
that were increased until they totaled
millions.
The association quotes on this subject
M. W. lilies Of Davenport, Iowa, who
collected the following examples:
Nicholas Longworth was born in
Newark, N. j., and migrated to Gin
cinnati, where he studied law. Long
worth's first client was accused Of horse
stealing The man was acquitted, but
had no money, so Longworth accepted
two copper stills as his fee. These stills
we're traded by Longworth to Goel Will
liams for SO acres of then unpromising
land In Cincinnati. Long before his
death this land was valued at $4,000
600. From time to time, Longworth
purchased more land with the money he
made in law. In 1858 his estate, in
