SPRING FLOWERING BULBS.
All bulbs such as Hyacinths, Tulips, Nar-
cissus, Crocus, etc., should be planted in
the fall, not in the spring; this for the
benefit of beginners who often confuse the
terms "Spring Flowering" with "Spring
Planting" and order too late.

panies at a reduction of twenty per cent,

BULBOUS PLANTS. #
A REW HINTS ON
THEIR CULTURE.
Bulbs as Winter Bloomers — There is no class of
plants that gives more satisfaction for the window-garden,
or that can be grown with so little care or expense.
Treatment of Bulbs in Pots — For early flowers most
bulbs should be potted in September, and for a succession
of flowers, at intervals up to December. A very good soil
for the growth of bulbs is composed of one-half decom-
posed turfy loam, and the remainder equal parts of well
rotted manure and leaf mould well mixed together. The
size of pots used depends on size of bulbs and effects de-
sired. For a single Hyacinth, a five-inch pot should be
used; for Tulips, a four-inch pot would be large enough.
A very pretty effect is produced by putting three or more
Hyacinths or six or more Tulips of different colors in a
seven or eight-inch pot. Narcissus require about the same
size pot as Hyaeinth.
In potting, fill the pots to the rim with soil, press the
bulbs into it until they are covered, then press down the
soil around the sidles of the pot, give a good watering which
will further settle the soil. The pots should now be placed
in a cool, dark situation, so as to encourage a strong
growth of roots before the bulbs start at the top. A very
good place is a cool cellar where the pots should be cov-
ered with five or six inches of sand, or a trench may be
dug in the open ground, and the pots placed in it and cov-
ered with six or eight inches of soil; then cover over that
with sufficient leaves or coarse manure to keep out frost,
so they may be removed when wanted. In six or eight
weeks they will have made sufficient root to admit of their
being brought to the light; as they begin to grow, water
freely, so that the soil may be moistened to the bottom of
the pots. By bringing in a few at intervals of eight or
ten days, a succession of flowers may be had for months.
Hyacinths in Glasses— Grown in this way Hyacinths
are fine ornaments for the sitting-room or parlor, and can
be grown with very little trouble. Fill the glasses with
water so that the base of the bulbs will just touch it; set
them away in a cool dark cellar or closet until the roots
have reached the bottom of the glasses, when they may be
brought to the light. When brought into the house they
should be kept near the light and at a temperature of be-
tween 50 and 60 degrees.
Out-Door Planting— May be done any time from the
last of September to the first of January, where the ground
remains unfrozen, but, if possible, should be done in Octo-
ber or early November.
Depths and Distances for Planting— The rows
should be six to twelve inches apart and the bulbs four to
eight, according to size of bulb. (See diagram.)

THE STORKS & HARKISON CO.
Soil— Any good, thoroughly drained soil will grow bulbs
well. If it should be a heavy clay it would be best to
add sand and well rotted manure to make it loose. The
surface of beds should be slightly raised at center so that
water will run off quickly, as bulbs are liable to rot if
water remains on them any length of time.
Winter Protection— Before winter sets in cover the
beds with four to six inches of leaves, if they can be had;
if not, coarse manure will do nearly as well; if leaves are
used, throw over a little brush or earth, to prevent blow-
ing off. In the south, where the ground does not freeze
more than a slight crust, they will require no protection.
Care of Tnlips and Hyacinths After Flowering
About a month after they are through flowering, or
when the tops appear yellow or decayed, they should be
taken up and the tops cut off within an inch of the
bulbs, but leave the roots on, spread them in a dry, airy
room for ten or twelve days to dry, after which wrap them
in paper, or pack them in perfectly dry sand, and store
in a dry, cool place until wanted for planting. If the beds
in which they have bloomed are wanted for bedding plants,
they may be taken up as soon as they are through flower-
ing and heeled in the ground in some out-of-the-way place
with the tops on until they ripen, then treat them the
same as if they had ripened in the bed.

Early Roman Hyacinths.
Grown extensively for cut-flowers, because of their
earliness and freedom of bloom. For growing in pots in
the house they are grand and give better returns for the
money than almost any other bulbous plant. Bulbs are
considerably smaller than ordinary hyacinths, but each
bulb should give two or three spikes of bright colored
flowers.
Early Roman White — 5 cents each; 50 cents per doz. ;
$4.00 per 100; by express, $3.00 per 100.
Blue Roman — Similar to the white variety in style of
flower, differing only in color, 5 cents each; 40 cents
per doz.
Rose Roman— Rich, deep rose. 5 cents each; 40 cents
per doz.
Feathered Hyacinths,

TULIPS
One of the most popular of all the Holland bulbs and one
that is certain to give a gorgeous display in early spring.
For outside flowering the Tulip should be planted during
October or November. Plant three to four inches deep in
rows six inches apart. Allow the ground to freeze before
putting on their winter covering, which should be the same
as that recommended for Hyacinths. They may remain in
the beds for two or three years, when they should be taken
up and separated.
For pot culture give same treatment as Hyacinths.
Single Early Tulips.
An interesting species, blooming in feathery plumes on
long stalks. Perfectly hardy, particularly adapted for out-
door planting. Each, 3c; dozen, 25c.
Grape Hyacinths,
A beautiful class of hardy bulbs, producing flower spikes
about six inches high, with small round bells so arranged
as to resemble a bunch of grapes. They are perfectly hardy
and increase very rapidly, making excellent plants for per-
manent edgings or for groupings on the lawn, where they
may remain many years without being disturbed.

Chinese Narcissus or Sacred Lily.
This is a variety of Polyanthus Narcissus, grown by the
Chinese, to bloom at the advent of their New Year, in
February. By methods of culture, original with them, they
succeed in growing large solid bulbs, that produce in lavish
profusion delightfully fragrant satiny white flowers with
deep golden yellow cups. They grow well, potted in light
rich soil in the ordinary manner, but make most interest-
ing and beautiful objects when flowered in shallow orna-
mental bowls or vases containing water. Put an inch or two
of sand or fine gravel in the bottom, on which place the
bulb; place -enough pebbles around the bulb to keep it in an
upright position, then fill with water so that about one inch
of bottom of bulb is covered. Set in a dark room for a
few days until the roots start freely, then bring to the light
and keep in any ordinary living room. A dozen bulbs
handled in this way, started at intervals, will give a suc-
cession of bloom throughout the winter.

Lawn Grass Seed*
In fitting the ground for a lawn, care should be taken to have the work properly done throughout, as in that
condition it will last for years; but if slighted in the beginning it will be a constant source of annoyance and ex-
pense. The soil should be thoroughly harrowed, then raked to reduce to as fine a condition as possible, as well as
to level it, as nothing detracts so much from the appearance of a lawn as an uneven surface. As a fertilizer we
would recommend pure bone meal as being lasting in its effects, and free from weed seeds. Apply at the rate of
600 to 1,000 lbs. to acre. After the seed has been sown it should be raked lightly so as to cover it about one-fourth
inch deep. Sow the seed in the fall before autumn rains have ceased, the earlier the better, if the soil is in good
condition. No one kind of grass will make a lawn that will keep beautifully green all through the season, but a
mixture of several kinds is essential, as some varieties are more luxuriant in the spring, others in summer, and again
others in autumn, and a proper combination of these various sorts is required to create and maintain a perfect
carp'et-like lawn. Our Velvet Sod Mixture is most admirably adapted to this purpose, and as near perfection as
possible to attain. One pound will seed about five hundred square feet; 80 pounds, or four bushels, are required
for an acre. Old lawns will be greatly benefited if they are carefully raked and sprinkled with our "Velvet Sod Mix-
ture, which will renew the thin places and spots that have been killed by the winter or other causes, then give it a
thorough rolling with a heavy roller.
Prices quoted by the lb. and 3 lbs. are postage paid by us ; if ordered by express, deduct 8c. per lb.
Large quantities are by express or freight, purchaser paying charges.

LAWN GRASS.
Velvet Sod Mixture — A mixture of fine dwarf, close
growing grasses, that will produce a neat velvety lawn

acre. Lb. 40c; 3 lbs. $1.00, postage paid. By express,

Special Lawn Mixture — For an ordinary yard, when
a cheaper mixture is desired, we can recommend this

bare spots where the grass has been trodden off. Lb.

balls that arc so constructed as to send out leaves from
all over their surface. They grow rapidly and are ex-
cellent ornaments for dwelling or conservatory. When
first received dip into water for 10 to 15 minutes every two
days until growth starts, meanwhile suspend by a wire in
any desired location. After foliage starts, sprinkle as re-
quired to insure growth. Ready for delivery about Dec.
1st. $1.00 each; 75c each by express.

15, our choice, for $1.00.
GENISTA RACEMOSA.

PALMS.
Our stock of Palms was never as complete and in such
perfect condition as it is this season. We are offering
only the varieties best adapted for ordinary culture in
the house, and aim to supply perfect specimens.
iP5
Latania Borbonica— Undoubtedly the most popular of
all palms. Leaves broad and fan-shaped, in well de-
veloped old plants, but in the smaller size this char-
acter leaf is not seen. We have complaint frequently
from customers declaring their palm is not what they
ordered because the leaf is not fan-shaped and cut as
in the description. This characteristic comes into evi-
dence in a short time if plant is repotted frequently and
kept in growing condition. Small plants by mail, 15c.

JAPAN OR ORIENTAL PLUMS.
Trees are ornamental, with rich, light green foliage and
attractive bloom; wonderfully productive, and come into
bearing at the age of two or three years. Flesh firm and
meaty; will keep for a long time in excellent condition.
Varieties marked (H) are or are supposed to be hybrids.
All the sorts we offer are the productions of Luther Bur-
bank of California who has produced thousands of cross-
bred seedlings, the ones offered being the best of all his pro-
ductions. While none of them have been thoroughly tested
in the .east they have all fruited in different sections and
all are of great promise; we believe they should be tried
wherever plums can be grown. Descriptions given are
largely Mr. Burbank's.
Apple (H)— One of a lot of over 25,000 seedlings that pro-
duced an enormous crop when two years old; none of
the others have produced a fruit equal in all respects
to this one. Named because of its close resemblance
to an apple in general appearance, form, color and rare
keeping qualities. Fruit averages about 2V2 inches in
diameter, striped and mottled until nearly ripe when
it turns to a deep reddish purple. The superlatively
rich, high flavored, sweet or sub-acid flesh is rather
firm, pale red; marbled pink, nearly freestone. Ripens
soon after Burbank; sometimes keeps over a month in
good condition. Tree is a fine strong grower, with pe-
culiar light brown bark. 35c; 3 for $1.00.
America (H)— This giant Plum is a Robinson-Botan
cross, combining the quality and size of the Japanese
with the hardiness of our native. In growth and gen-
eral appearance the tree is like a native. Fruit is larger
than the average Japan and four to sixteen times as
large as the popular native sorts. It is not surpassed
in beauty by any plum; color glossy coral red, flesh
light yellow, moderately firm, of excellent quality,
ripens two to three weeks before Robinson or Burbank,
is a splendid keeper. Should prove hardy all over the
U. S. and succeed wherever plums can be grown. 35c;
3 for $1.00.
Abundance — (Botan.) One of the oldest and best known
Japanese varieties; hardy and productive. Fruit large,
lemon yellow, with heavy bloom; good quality. Aug.
Burbank — The best and most profitable among growers
for market; ripens ten to fourteen days after Abund-
ance. Tree hardy, sprawling vigorous grower, un-
equalled in productiveness; bears young. Fruit large,
excellent quality; cherry red with lilac bloom. Aug.
Berekman's — (True Sweet Botan.) Medium size, deep
blood red if ripened in sun; very sweet, moderately
juicy, excellent quality. Ripens with Abundance or a
little before. Aug.
Bartlett (H)— Strong upright growing tree with very
glossy dark green foliage; very productive and usually
fruits abundantly the second season. Fruit medium
size, perfect freestone, dark crimson with flakes and
dots of yellow, white bloom; flesh yellow, juicy; qual-
ity, flavor and fragrance closely resembles the ever
popular Bartlett pear, but even more delicious; ripens
just before Burbank. Probably too soft for long ship-
ments, but all that can be desired for home use and
nearby market. 50c.
Climax (H) — Mr. Burbank says: "Fruit heart-shaped, as
large as Wickson and more highly colored, so fragrant
that a whole home is perfumed with a single fruit; de-
licious as could be desired or imagined, and above all
ripens before any other good plum and nearly a month
before Wickson. Tree extremely vigorous, rather up-
right grower with strong branches and very large
leaves. Productive as Burbank, four or five times as
large, two or three weeks earlier and much more highly
colored." Mr. Burbank has strong commendations for
Climax from such authorities as Prof. Van Deman and
Prof. Waugh, and in all sections where it proves re-
liable it will be an advance in many respects upon any
plum now known. 60c.
Chalco (H)— A Simoni-Burbank cross, the forerunner of
a new hardy race of Plums. Tree a tremendous grower
and unsurpassed in productiveness, hardy; it must sup-
plant P. Simoni and will prove profitable in most sec-
tions where that variety is a failure. Fruit ripens just
before Burbank; is large, flat, deep reddish purple:
flesh yellow, very sweet, rather firm, exceedingly fra-
grant, seed small. Like the Apricot Plum the fruit is
almost stemless and completely surrounds the older
branches. A superior shipping sort, ripening well when
picked green and keeps nearly a month. 35c; 3 for $1.00.
Chahot — Medium to large; cherry red, flesh yellow, sweet,
of excellent quality; very prolific; one of the best of
Japan Plums. Early Sept.
Earliest of All — (Yosobe.) A week earlier than Willard.
A small handsome deep purple red plum; poor quality,
immensely productive, hardy and annual bearer. July.
Hale — Fruit medium to large, yellow mottled and speckled
red; flesh soft and juicy, yellow, cling, of good quality.
Tree a moderately spreading vigorous grower. Follows
Burbank in ripening. Last Aug.
Ogon — Medium size, clear lemon yellow, with light bloom;
flesh thick, meaty, dry, firm, freestone, long keeper,
second quality; excellent for canning; moderately pro-
ductive. Aug.
October Purple — A strong, vigorous grower, said to be
one of the hardiest of the Japan varieties. Productive,
of good quality, a large, round late purple plum, es-
pecially recommended for late market. 35c ; 3 for 1.00.
Simoni — (Apricot Plum.) Fruit bright red, flat; flesh
apricot yellow, firm, of little value only as a novelty.
Sept.
Satsuma— (Blood.) Large, globular, with sharp point.
Color, purple and red with blue bloom, flesh firm, juicy,
dark re*d or blood color, fine quality; pit very small.
Hardy and vigorous grower. Aug.

THE STORKS & ELAJRiilSCXN CO.'S CATALOGUE
RED JUNE.
Red June — Recommended by such high authority as Prof.
Bailey as "by all odds the best Japanese Plum, ripen-
ing before Abundance." One of the vigorous, upright
growers; productive; fair size, vermilion red with
handsome bloom; pleasant quality. Ripens after Wil-
lard, a week before Abundance. Aug.
Sultan (H)— Prof. Van Deman says: "Sultan is my
choice of all the new Plums which I have tested. It is
a cross between Wickson and Satsuma; large, being
over two inches in diameter and nearly round in shape.
The surface is smooth, dark wine-red or garnet and
very handsome. The flesh is garnet color, too, and
rich-looking. In flavor it is excellent, being tart
enough, yet not sour, but a delicious sub-acid. No
Plum that I have eaten is better, and when cooked it
could scarcely be equaled. It has all the high flavor
of Satsuma when cooked, and Satsuma has heretofore
been rated far above all other Plums for cooking. The
season of Sultan is at least a month earlier. The tree
is very fruitful. I look for this Plum to take a high
place in public favor." The tree grows very rapidly,
but is compact; has wood and leaves as much like
the Napoleon cherry as like a Plum. Exceedingly pro-
ductive, ripening a week before Burbank; falls like
apples as soon as ripe; a great keeper. A basket of
these Plums would attract instant attention anywhere
by their unusual size and remarkable beauty of form
and color. 60c.
Sliiro (H) — A combination of Robinson, Myrobolan and
Wickson. A strong grower, having the appearance of
a gigantic Myrobolan in leaf and growth, wood hard
and wiry, ripening early in fall; should prove of great
value where it is too cold for most of the best sorts.
Fruit is produced in profusion, medium to large, clear
light yellow with thin white bloom, so transparent the
pit can be seen through the flesh, which is firm, juicy,
rich, pleasant sub-acid; ripens two weeks before Bur-
bank and nearly as productive. 60c.
Wlcltaon— Fruit remarkably handsome, very large, long,
heart-shaped, color deep maroon red covered with white
bloom; flesh firm and meaty, yellow, rich and aromatic;
cling; pit small. Tree an uprign. vigorous grower.

Willard— Medium size, attractive red color, very early,

Alexander— Medium, greenish white, nearly covered with
rich red; melting, juicy, sweet. July.
Admiral Dewey — Introduced by J. D. Husted, the well
known originator, amongst other varieties, of Husted's
Early, Early Michigan and Triumph Peaches. He has
devoted many years to scientific crossing and breeding
for improved varieties. Every new kind introduced by
him has stood the test of practical trial, and main-
tained all the merits claimed for them. His latest in-
troduction, "Admiral Dewey," marks as great an ad-
vance in early Peaches as did the Triumph, and while
that variety is proving even better than ever claimed
for it, Admiral Dewey possesses many important points
of superiority. It is a perfect freestone; ripens with
the Triumph; flesh is yellow, of uniform color and tex-
ture to the pit. Has better form and brighter color on
the surface; is equally hardy and productive. The tree
Is a strong symmetrical grower, and as near perfection
as we can obtain in a single variety. Specimens sent us
from Georgia were received in perfect condition, and
were all that Mr. Husted claim3 for them. We believe
there is no doubt about its being the very best early
yellow freestone in cultivation. 25c; 5 for $1.00.

GRAPES.
There is scarcely a yard so small, either in country or
city, that room for one to a dozen or more grapevines
cannot be found. They do admirably trained up to the
side of any building, or along the garden fences, occupy-
ing but little room and furnishing an abundance of the
healthiest of fruit, Make the soil mellow, and plant the
vines somewhat deeper than they stcod in the nursery.
Plant about eight feet apart, by the fence or building. For
vineyard, make rows eight feet apart, six to ten feet in
rows.
See price list for larger quantities by freight or express
A heavy stock of splendidly rooted, first-class vines on

Illinois. Was awarded Wilder Silver Medal by the
American Pomolcgical Society, has taken first premium
at Oho, Illinois, Indiana and Missouri State Fairs. The

blue-black in color, ripens uniformly and has generally
the appearance cf the Worden. The berries are of
mammoth size, being three inches in circumference and

maturity is from the middle to the last of August, ac-
cording to the season, ripening with Moore's Early, but,
unlike that variety, it has kept sound and perfect, both
on and off the vine, for weeks after Moore's Early was
decayed and gone. In dessert quality it is unrivalled
by any of our present list of first early market grapes.

STRAWBERRIES.
The blossoms of these marked with (P) are destitute of
stamens, and are termed pistillate, and unless a row of
perfect flowering variety is planted at intervals not ex-
ceeding about a rod, they will produce Imperfect fruit and
but little of it.
Our land is especially suited to the development of straw-
berry plants, giving us extra fine crowns and roots, our
plants weighing two or three times as much as many sent
out. Our stocks are pure, each kind kept by itself and
cultivated entirely for the production of plants. They are
carefully graded, handled and packed, certain to give the
best of satisfaction.
Dip the plants in water as soon as received,
and bury the roots in moist, shady ground till you are
ready to set them out; neglect for an hour or so is
often fatal.

NICK OHMER.
Nick Ohmer — The plant is very large and stocky, send-
ing out plenty of very strong runners. It is probably
not surpassed in healthy, vigorous growth and great
productiveness by any variety. It has a perfect blos-
som. The fruit is of the very largest size, a giant
among strawberries. It is never misshapen. Its only
departure from the regular roundish conical form is
when, under high culture, it is somewhat triangular.
It is dark, glossy red, firm and of excellent flavor.
Pride of Cumberland — One of the best posted straw-
berry specialists says: "For a long-keeping, shipping
berry of fine size and great beauty Pride of Cumber-
land heads the list." Plant is healthy and vigorous,
berries large size, conical, rich glossy red, good quality,
firm and unexcelled for long distance shipments.
Thrives on almost all soils; like all the large berries
delights in a deep rich one. 40c for 10; $1.50 for 100.
Parker Earle — A late variety, medium to large, rich
crimson, regular conical shape, with neck very firm;
excellent shipper. Makes an enormous plant; should
be grown in hills. Throws up a large number of fruit
stalks, every one loaded, often several hundred berries
to the single plant; requires a rich soil with plenty of
moisture to ripen its crop.
Rough Rider— Originated in New York in 1893. The
introducer claims the following points of superiority:
Perfect blossom, very productive, extremely vigorous,
very large and attractive, the firmest, the very latest,
the best keeper, the finest flavor, sells at highest
prices. Berries very large, irregular in shape, dark
colored as Gandy. Promises to take its place as the
very best late market variety. $1.00 for 10; $5.00 for 100.
Sharpless— One of the old favorites. Large, productive,
flesh firm, sweet, with a delicate aroma; of fine quality,
color clear light red, with a smooth, shining surface.
Sample (P) — One of the very best berries and seems to
succeed nearly everywhere. Plants strong, large and
healthy, producing in profusion large dark colored ber-
ries of uniform size and color, firm enough to ship well.
Believe this like Bubach will become one of the stand-
ard sorts for both home and market.
Seaford (P)— In Seaford we believe we have a berry
fully equal to Bubach in size; far more productive,
firm enough to meet all requirements, color deep,
glossy red and quality fit for a king. The plant is
as large as Bubach, and a much more vigorous grower,
blossom imperfect, while it ripens its crop much faster
and several days earlier, and therefore commands big-
ger prices.
Warfield (P)— Its great beauty, firmness, earliness, good
flavor, productiveness and vigor make it exceedingly
popular. Ripens with Crescent, and is superceding that
variety for a reliable market sort.
Wm. Belt — A well-tested variety that is giving remark-
able satisfaction as a large, handsome, productive berry
for market or home use. Vigorous, thrifty, heavy plant,
producing large crops under good common matted row
culture. Berries extra large, conical, quite uniform in
shape, brilliant glossy red, ripens all over without green
tips, good quality, carries well to market and brings
highest price. For several seasons one of the best va-
rieties on our grounds.
Price, except noted, 20c per 10, $1.00 per 100.
Not less than 25 of a sort at hundred rates.

soon as they have done bearing, cut out the old wood to
give more vigor to the young canes.

Cumberland— In size, the fruit is simply enormous, far
surpassing any other sort. The berries run seven-
eighths and fifteen-sixteenths of an inch in diameter,
and are of such handsome appearance that their fruit
