Show Plant Bulbs Now For a Touch Of Spring in the Winter by R&nda Black Fall is the perfect time to begin planting if you want flowers indoors this winter. Growing bulbs indoors is the answer to having spring the whole year round. And what could be more enjoyable than having flowers in bloom when its cold and snowy outside. The fastest way to force bulbs is to simulate a short winter. This can be done by placing the planted bulbs in the refrigerator or in a cool closet. This is when they begin to grow roots and start to sprout in preparation for spring. Plant the bulbs in any commercial potting soil. Put several in the same pot, and space them so they are about apart and Vi from the pot edge. Plant so that the pointed part of the bulb can barely be seen above the soil. Directions for growing four different bulbs follow: Hyacinth Bulbs Hyacinths are my favorite and in my opinion they are also the easiest. These can be started three to an pot or one in a special bulb vase. Put the pot in the refrigerator for six to seven weeks. Then place in partial sun for a week and full sun after that for blooming.

He is a popular speaker and lecturer throughout the west. Dr. Petersons lecture, The Enigma of an Inward Draining will focus on the Basin geographical insularity of the Sanpete and Sevier valleys. Hidden in alcoves of the Great Basin, the society which was developed in the two valleys in the 19th century by Mormon settlers reflected more of the ideal way of life desired by the Mormon church than that found in the territorys capitol city. Although Salt Lake and City was the political religious center for Gods Kingdom, it was continually in contact with the worldly in- - fluences Mormons were trying to avoid. The protection provided by the location of Sanpete and Sevier valleys kept Mormon settlers in the two valleys from worldly influences until early in the 20th century. Dr. Peterson will discuss the impact that geographical insularity has had in shaping the society fround in the two valleys.
