of October If blossoms are wanted for
the holiday season. The soli for pot
ting should b* a light, friable one,
which will allow water to pass freely
through It, and the bulbs should be set
so that the tip* will be but slightly
covered. It le a good plan, after 1 al
most tilling the pots, to put In about
an inch of clear sand so th* young
roots may readily force themselves
through IL Give a thorough watering
after potting, then eet the pots In a
cool dark place to allow them to make
root growth, which will require about
six weeks' time. When growth of leaf
and bloom haa started tbe pots should
be placed In a sunny window with
plenty of light and watered as the aoll
requires. The plants should be kept In
a temperature of 60 to 66 degree* dur
ing the day and about 60 at night.
The freesta le a very adaptable plant
and one that can be grown In a cou
ple of ways, according to experienced
florist!. Some say that the paper
white can be grown In water and peb
bles as eaally as the Chinese Illy. Un
less they are forced It takes them about
four months and a little over to reach
blooming alse and for that reason
should be planted not later than
the last of this month If blooms are
wanted for the Christmas holidays.
The bulbs must be kept In good con
dition, and In order to do this should
never be allowed to dry out, as they
easily lose vitality. Everyone wants
fine, large flowers, of course, and to
have them a rich aoll la necessary.
Soli made of old, thoroughly decayed
leaves end manure, with a very little
wood ashes. Is excellent when placed
In deept well-drained pots. The bulbs
should be placed In the pots about 2
Inchea apart and covered fully an Inch
and watered sparingly until the shoota
appear. It la not necessary to put
them away. In the dark for the root*
to form. They can be kept In any
cool, shady place In the yard or houie.
After the shoots come through gradu
ally bring the pots to the full sunshine,
where they will become strong plants,
standing up erect They should be
kept well watered and grown In full
sunlight, as they are much more fra
grant when grown In a sunny location.
Care should be taken not to wet the
blossom* when watering, ae that will
lessen their fragrance. In purchasing
bulbs refuse the small, Inferior ones, as
they are sure to cause disappointments
In the matter of blossoms.

IS A “JACK THE HUGGER"
WORKING THE SQUEEZE
IN PEACHTREE STREET?
Ha* ‘‘Jack the Hugger" made his ap
pearance In Atlanta?
That some mysterious man has been
frightening the women In Peachtree
street, fashionable Peachtree, waa the
report received at the police station on
Wednesday morning.
"There la»* man In Peachtree street,
between Third and Fourth streets, who
will grab any woman who walks along
the sidewalk alone after dark."
That was the telephone message re
ceived at the station. Call Officer H.
H. Cooper received the message and
was making further tnqulrlea when the
connection was broken and he was un
able to learn the name of the person
making the report. It was the voice of
a woman and an excited woman, ac
cording to the officer.
That an unknown man has
molested some woman la evident,
but Inquiries on the block men
tioned failed to show that any of
the residents of that Immediate local
ity have been disturbed. It is consid
ered hardly probable that any ruffian
would choose this fashionable block to
molest passersby. The residences here
are among the handsomest In Atlanta.

FLOWER - NOTES.
The home florist should not let the
pleasuro.usually derived from the out
door garden during these long hot days
and evenlnga cause her to overlook the
fact that flower* In th* house and for
gifts are particularly pleasurable dur
ing the Christmas and New Year holi
days, and It I* time to be making ar
rangements to that eAd. While It Is a
little too early to plant bulbs for the
holiday blossoms It is not too early to
be giving consideration to the- sub
ject ot wtmt to plant and to be plac
ing orders If bulbs must be bought.
Among the bulbs useful for such a
purpose none are more popular, and
deservedly sc, than freealas, narcissus
and hyacinths. The Roman variety of
the latter, while perhaps not so hand
some as others. Is the best and easiest
grown. The variety of the narclssua
known as the paper white Is the more
preferable one for fall blossoms, all
things considered. It la easily grown,
delightfully fragrant and comes Into
bloom about the same time as the hya
cinths. The freesla I* also quite a
popular plant for this purpose, made so
by Its delicate beauty, fragrance and
comparatively easy culture. As previ
ously remarked. It Is not too early to
be making arrangements for the plant
ing of these bulbs, hence some remarks
upon soil, method of planting, etc., are
not out of place. About seven weeks'
time will be required to bring the
bulbs Into bloom, hence the planting
•should not be done later than the first

CORN CROP DAMAGED
BY RECENT RAINS
Special to The Georgian. t
Augusta, Ga., July 26.—Judge Eve
stated yesterday that the recent rains
had played havoc with the corn fields
of the county that are In the river

the high waters.
The lose of the corn In the swamps
will be a great loss to the county, as
there Is usually enough raised 1n the
county plantations to suplpy the stock
ot the county from year to year.
After the freahet several weeks ago
the corn was replanted and waa get
ting along-nicely until the recent rains,
and It Is believed that It will be almost

Thomas M. Clarke. Inquiries wen
made at each home, but ncr member ot
these families ha* been disturbed

about walking In the vicinity of her
home, but the report received at th#
police station will have a tendency to
Insure care In the future. The police
department will make an Investigation
of the report, but until the name of
the unknown woman who telephoned
the station Is learned the officers will
have lltle data to work from.
