No one though of war then, though, and since the Nipponese lilies were dirt cheap, no great American lily cul- ture grew up. But system of growing first class U. s. bulbs was developed under the direction of horticulturist Samuel Emsweller.
 STUDYING PLANTS
 AT MARYLAND STATION
 Today at the Beltsville, :. Md, Horticulture Station, thousands of lilies are under study and develop ment. Tiny seedlings by the tray full are being used for breeding ex- |periments. Some very fancy genetic juggling is being done with new chemicals, producing thick-petaled flowers, excellent for packing and shipping.

Florists report that possibly only 10 per cent of the usual number of plants is available either from Pa cific Northwest, Louisiana and Flor ida bulb fields, or last years hold overs, or increased shipments of delicate Bermuda lilies. However, size and quality are generally below par, and prices will be about double.
 When Easter, 1943,- rolls around, American floriculturists hope to have enough homegrown bulbs to make the big $2O,0Oo,OO0 U. s. Eas- tef lily business an all-American af- fair, and to supply the Canadians and Britishers besides.

 In fact, one of Dr. Stuart's main problems is figuring out how best to harvest and store and force bulbs so that florists can be as- Sured of steady supply of waxen blooms whenever they need them be 1t November or June. Japanese bulbs used to be a headache he says. They always arrived in a bunch about November, leaving the florists barely enough time to force them for the Easter market.
 Cooperating with the Bureau of Plant Industry to build up healthy lily stocks is the Farm Security Administration.
