florists call good potting soil and is best purchased from a florist, since very little is needed. Place the bulb so that its point is half an inch below the surface. * It is necessary to allow the bulb to make roots and for this purpose the pot must be placed in a dark and cool place, where it cannot freeze or dry out too much. A cold frame, where it ‘can be covered with leaves, or a pit protected by a curb from surface drainage, where several pots “may be stored, covered with leaves, ashes or sand, will do.
and no further watering should be necessary. If stored in an indoor cellar or closet the soil should be prevented from drying out excessively.- Root action will follow and when top growth begins the pot may be brought indoors or kept in the storage place and so retarded until wanted.

Keep in the Light
AFTER BEING brought indoors the pot must be given all the light possible and kept in a temperature which averages 60 degrees until stems, leaves and flower buds are formed. This means keeping them out of overheated rooms, preferably on a sunporch, where windows may be opened for ventilation and cbolness. Night temperatures should be lower than day. After buds are formed a temperature of 70 degrees will bring out the flowers, and if’ haste is needed a higher temperature will produce it. Too high temperature will produce spindly growth and may prevent flowering. Air is as important as light. Success in forcing bulbs
