Wind and cold are deadly enemies
of lilies when growing and, of course,
freezing of the bulbs must be pre-
vented by laying heavy blanket
of leaves, hay or straw, over them
during the winter months.
The bests time to plant lily bulbs
is soon after the flowers fade or
seeds ripen. The rules for the
planting of the bulbs of your special
lily should be carefully followed.
1t Is the nature of the plant to
throw out annual f1brous roots from
the underground stem above the
bulb. These are called stem roots
and they are developed in addition
to the large permanent ones at its
base. Lilies are propagated by divi-
sion Of the offsets, by bulbils, by
seeds and by scales. The best and
easiest way is by the division of the
offsets which form at the base of
the parent bulb on the underground
stem above the bulb, or on the end
of a rhizome.

Increase Of II PET.
In Building Loans
Over 1888 Shown
Previous Februuries
Since Depression
Also Topped

Continuing the years margin of
gain over 1898, savings, building and
loan associations in February loaned
II per cent more dollars to Amer
ican families than they did IL
months before. The United States
Building and Loan League indi-
Gates that its $58,3O8,O 900 of loans not
only represented seasonal rise of
per cent over January but also
topped all previous Februaries since
the depression began.
Morton Bodflsh. Chicago, execu-
tive vice president of the league,
comments that larger volume of
the total was placed to help people
acquire new homes. both by build
ing and purchase, than has char
acterized other Februaries. The di-
vision this year was $35, ,145 900 to
buyers and builders and $23, 1853 900
to remodelers and modernizers and
to all other borrowers on property
already owned.
Savings and loan associations
have been supplying an average of
$l2,O0OO00 a month for the ref
nancing of existing mortgages ever
since September, and from $780,
600 to $5,OOO,OOO for modernization
and repairs each of the past five or
six months" said the league official
Changes in the total volume of
loans by associations from month to
month are mainly due to the ex-
pansion of credit for home purchase
and building, and February made its
good showing especially because of
$1,500,000 increase over January in
purchase loans. Construction loans
were about the same level for the
two months, whereas year ago
there was a 100000 decrease from
January to February"
States in which more than 81 ,000,-
600 was loaned by the thrift and
home financing institutions for
home purchase include Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
California, while those in which
more than $1,OOOOOO was advanced
for new construction include New
York. Ohio and California.
The most spectacular gain from
January to February in total volume
Of loans was in the Indiana Michigan
district. and the Minnesota-1owa-
Missouri-Dakota district. which, to-
gether, accounted for II per cent
Of the entire country'S gain in Feb
ruary loans over January.
All of these geographical figures
are looked upon as an indication
that the Central West is getting
more of it's share of better real
estate conditions than it had been
experiencing up until this year.

The lilies are famous for their

Gardeners are just beginning to
realize what an asset they are.
Their culture is not difficult, but
because We have been so used to
seeing these flowers on sale by

Judgment and care, of course, must
be exercised in raising lilies. This

play with the raising of any other
flower. Nearly all the species may
be used for planting with other

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-The roar
ing war-boom stock market of Tues
day turned somewhat lamblike today
as traders cashed profits on the most
spectacular upsurge in the history
of the exchange.
Heavy selling in the forenoon put
the ticker tape behind as much as 4
minutes during virtually all of this
period. Blocks of 1000 to 10000
shares changed hands. and losses
ran to 4 points for leaders.
There was a recovery after mid
day and extreme declines were re.
duced, Cancelled or replaced with ad-
vances of to 3 in many cases. The
pace slowed appreciably on the shift
and prices again gave ground in the
final hour, number touching lows

Part of the days reactionary ten

dental neutrality proclamation

though, believed this law would be

Some commentators expressed the
view that the exceptional upswing
OF stock prices in the past few days
merely enabled the market to catch
up with domestic business and a

had of the length to which Euro
pean hostilities would be carried.
