Bishops garden of the National
Cathedral it attracts great atten-
ton each fall, though usually mis-
taken for crocus.
Not the least of the plants
charms are the brilliant bottle-
green strap-like leaves eight
inches long which are produced
with or Immediately follow the
flowers. The leaves persist all
winter and wither in the spring.
The flowers are borne singly but
established bulbs throw up several
blooms in succession. Fortunate
ly, they withstand early frosts,
beating rain, and wind that would
ruin less hardy flowers. Since the
plant rests during the summer,
along with many other garden
immigrants from the Near East,
some care should be taken to
avoid spading, watering, or other
wise disturbing the bulbs then.
Although it will flower through
thick carpet of ivy. it is happiest
where nothing interferes with the
full blaze of the sun on it. 1t best
grows among cobblestones lining
a paved walk. There the full heat
Of summer is absorbed by the
rock, to the bulbs betterment.
Also. the stone provides a foil for
the flowers. which might have
been overlooked in a perennial
border.
Though not widely grown in
America, 1t is no newcomer here.
1t was introduced into Virginia
300 years ago. Many a quiet gar
den there has fine clumps of it,
known by its old name of autumn
daffodil.
Generally, 1t should be planted
four inches deep. See that enough
sand or gravel is present to pre-
vent water from accumulating
about the bulb. Also remember to
get the bulbs In the ground as
soon as possible. preferably by the
end Of August. They increase with
gratifying regularity like most
amaryllis. and like them, never
become a nuisance. The variety
usually offered by dealers is Stern
bergia lutea. The variety lutea
major in my garden turned out
to be the same thing.

with a high shutter speed and a
wide lens aperture or with a
slower speed and smaller lens
opening?
A. This will depend upon cir
cumstances. If you are about to
make a picture of a landscape
scene where a great depth of
field will be desirable and no mo-
ton will have to be stopped,
select the smallest opening that
is practical under the lighting
conditions and then set the time
of exposure accordingly. How
ever. if you are shooting a NOV
ing object, select shutter speed
fast enough to stop the motion
and then use whatever aperture
that goes with this speed.
@. I am afraid to use flash bulbs
for fear they may explode. 3 Is
there any way I can protect my
self and subject from such an ex-
plosion?
A. 1t is a rare occasion indeed
when present-day flash bulbs ex-
plode. However, since this does
happen once in a great while
some manufacturers coat thei1
bulbs with a transparent adhesive
so that the glass will not fly even
If the bulb explodes. Further
protection may be had by cover
ing the bulb with your handker-
chief. Or you can buy a shield
