Tulips were being placed in Eans. A little later 8,000 giganteum ulbs will be potted and several thou- sand rambler roses are yet to be taken in hand. A new propagating house, 10x100, with two side benches, will be completed this month, and early next month begonia propagation in it will commence in earnest. The houses here are not at all modern, but it would not be easy to find an establishment with a finer grade of pot plants than are grown by WoUrath & Sons, in Waltham. W. N.

Paper Whites, after potting or after being placed in flats, can be safely stood out- doors or in a coldframe a
