while they <br> increase in number size and value year by year after ihey <br> become well established They should be set where they are <br> desired to remain as they do not take kindly to removal liking <br> to spread and luxuriate year after year in the same spot as <br> family treasure and a long-loved ornament of home <br> In stately splendor and exquisite coloring no flower can sur- <br> pass the Auratum and Melpomene varieties; none are fuller of <br> glowing life and color than the little Siberian Lily L tenuifol- <br> ium ; none display more barbaric magnificence than the single <br> and double Tiger Lilies What blossom can be more sugges- <br> tive of purity than the Madonna Lily L candidum <br> Plant the bulbs eight or nine inches deep Many fail in this <br> particular setting the bulbs so near the surface that the frosts <br> of winter almost throw them out of the soil The Lily throws <br> out roots from the stalk above the bulb and these serve the <br> double purpose of supplying nutriment to the plant and of brac- <br> ing and sustaining in position the heavy weight of the blossoms <br> The soil for Lilies should be made rich with old well-decayed <br> manure thoroughly incoqiorated with the soil ; but fresh dress- <br> ing must never be used nor must any come in contact with the <br> bulbs They should be set on and surrounded by a layer of <br> pure sand When the ground freezes in the fall apply a cover- <br> ing of stable litter or leaves which may be forked in in the <br> spring thus supplying enrichment to the soil <br> Lilium speciosum Melpomene crimson spotted with deep blood red each <br> petal distinctly bordered with white Same habit of growth as rubrum <br> Stems dark and color of flower much deeper Each 25 cents ;
