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 d Personal Mention Hon.
