Neither greenhouse nor garden is

beautiful flowers in pots -or bowls, antl.
there is little risk of failure, provided
that a few simple rules are observed.
To get the best out of our winter -
flowering bulbs
interflowering"bulbs it.is well to matte an
early ,start and so obtain abundant
root formation before ,attempting to
force them into bloom. It cannot; in-
deed; be too 'strongly impressed upon
the grower that to pot them up and
then place the pots in a warm room is
simply courting failure. The pots must
be stored where it is dark and cool,'
thus following the bulbs' natural habit
of growth as when planting them deep-
ly in the open ground.
The hyacinth is the favorite and
most dependable .of our winter -flower-
ing bulbous plants when grown in the
house. The most suitable compost for
potting is made by,using two-thirds of
good turfy loom, very old dry manure
that can be rubbed through a fine sieve
and a little sand. To this may be add-
ed charcoai broken up, quite small. In-
stead of manure, leaf mold may be
substituted, or good garden soil ,may
be t:.ied
instead.
The soil should be used in a some-
what dry state to make the work .of
potting pleasant, and herein lies the
advantage of preparing the compost
some time before it isrequired. If old
pots are to be used, they should, be
,washed, scrubbed quite. clean and al-
lowed to dry before potting begins.
The size most suitable for a single
hyacinth bulb is a pot five inches in

growth is well advanced and the bulbs
are brought to the light, water will be
given more abundantly.

Why is Lightning Forked?
Science recognizes, several kinds of
lightning, > although authorities differ
as to whether some types are not iden-
tical and merely appear different be-
cause of the peculiarities of human
vision,
Forked Iightning is the most common
type. The irregular path of the dis-
charge is believed to be due to the
pressure of solid particles and electri-
cal `'charges that make. a jagged course
along the path of least resistance.
Sheet , lightning, which illuminates
large areas of the sky; is,, believed ,to
be merely the reflection of forked light-
ning from` a distance. -
The majority of victims of lightning
are not billed instantly. They are'
merely stunned, and.Cao lie revived
by the application -'of artificial respira-
tion and the other first=aid measures
commonly employed in cases••of drown-
ing and asphyxiation.
-Most of the exceptionally tall struc-
tures of the world have been 'struck
by lightning more than once, but. have
escaped damage because the lightning
has been:' carried harmlessly t to- the
ground by- lightning -rods. The Eiffel
Tower in Paris has been struck many
times without damage, despite the be-`
• lief that lightning never strikes twice
n in, the same place. •
A single flash of lightning concen-
trates "many times more 'energy: than
could be produced a one ins ant by
all the power plants in, the world.
