THROUGH the use Of cold storage methods
discovered in experiments by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, it is now possible that
Christmastime in the future may see decid-
edly different floral display that has been pos
sible in the past. Iris and coral lilies may now
be forced into bloom in green houses for decora-
tive purposes In Midwinter and the period OF
growth Of the daffodil shortened to about 80
days.
Largely responsible in this early forcing Is
the method of cold treating bulbs in the Sum-
mer after digging. This shortens the rest period
they must have before beginning growth and
allows them to bloom earlier. The expert
mental work on cold treatment of these bulbs
has been done by DR.. David 0rifiths and r. G.
Wright. Of the Bureau Of Plant Industry.
The process is simple. The specialists found
that bulbous iris. for instance, II dug about
July 10 and then stored at temperature Of
so degrees Farenheit for a month before pot
ting the latter part Of September, come into
bloom in the green house in early December, al
though the bulbs which do not have this storage
treatment usually do not bloom until January.
This Iengthens the iris marketing season by
starting 1t q month or more earlier than usual.
The florists have rapidly taken over this
method Of forcing iris and last year, In North
Carolina growers in the vicinity Of Wilmington
put between 400 and 500 bushels Of bulbs into

big home market awaits dahodil growers, the
department bulb men believe. This Is because
they have found that daffodil bulbs can be held
dormant by the cold treatment until late In
the season and can then be grown in vases
Of water and win begin to bloom in about SO
days. Formerly, 1t was believed necessary to
pot the dafodil bulbs in September The chief
market period for narcissus paperwhites ends
about the first of the year. More paperwhites
are forced in homes than by commercial florists
and the department believes that the daffodils
can be grown on a similar scale, as they could
be placed on the market for blooming after the
first Of the year, following the blooming sea-
son Of the paperwhites.
An experiment last year in giving bulbs OF
coral lilies similar storage treatment indicates
that this bright red lily can be forced for Christ
mas bloom, Or. Grifiths says. Bulbs were shipped
from Bellingham, Wash, where the department
has an experiment station, to Arlington. Va.
At Arlington they were placed In cool storage
late in August and were potted October %.
BY December II the lilies had begun to bloom.
This stock came from region where bulbs
mature late, and the department believes that
it viii be possible for florists to mature these
lilies easily In time for the Christmas trade.
The experiments show that the cold-treated
bulbs may be lowered in about 60 days from
potting.

cabin, where he had left it. He floated

gave him final instructions, and set out
down the Iskitimwah.
It was little before midnight when
