Bythe cross cut method some hyacinthswill produce good flowering bulbs in fouryears; other varieties will take six oreven seven years. By the scooping outsystem a year longer is needed, but thenumber of bulbs thus raised is muchgreater. Some hyacinths can only bepropagated satisfactorily by one of these in the same line, but are willing to sub-mit our case to this jury without furtherwitnesses. IS A CHANGE OF SEEIl NECESSARY? is the next question for consideration;and it is one frequently asked. We an-swer, all depends upon is a prevailing idea that a
