John Young, Sec'y' BAUM'S BBIDE WINDOW. Next best to a living figure in a show window seems to be a dry goods store bride; it never seems to grow old. The one illustrated in this issue is repro- duced from a photograph of the win-, dow with which C. L. Baum, of Knox- ville, Tenn., took the prize, October 6, offered by the local board of com- merce for the most artistic arrange- ment of home products. The window represented a bride carrying a shower bouquet of orchids and valley, accom- panied by a flower girl carrying a basket of Ophelia rosea. This window attracted piore attention than any seen in Knoxville for some time. Fifty- three firms, in all lines of business, competed for the prize. PLANTINa SPANISH IRIS. Will you please tell me how to plant Spanish irist I have put seven bulbs in each 4-inch pot, with the top of the bulbs slightly out of the' soil. When should I bring them inside for forcing! I have the British Queen, Louise and Cajanus. W. A.—Wis. The 4-inch pots are much too small for flowering Spanish iris. If you use 6-inch pots or deep pans, placing ten bulbs in each, you will have much bet- ter results. Or, if you want them for cutting, the best plan is to plant them in flats five inches deep; a flat 12x24 inches will hold seventy-five to eighty bulbs and bloom
