It ii Tan, Ltto TiUpg Most of the tulip bulbi shipped here from Holland this fall are of the tall, late flowering classes which prior to the invasion were ths most popular type in this country. American grown bulbs, also, are chiefly of the same type.

The public is inclined to lump all varieties of this type together and call them "Darwin tulips," but catalogues divide them into Darwin, Cottage and Breeder classes. This division is based upon ancestry, and there is less reason for it each year, because the three classes are being cross bred to such an extent that, especially in the newer varieties, the characteristic differences which originally marked them tend to disappear. There is no reason to limit planting in a bed or border to varieties of any class, since they harmonize perfectly, and bloom about the same time. You may select from all three the colors that you wish, and group them together with assurance of a good effect, if your colors are well chosen. The tulips will do their part, each bulb (if of flowering size) producing a flower on schedule exactly in the soot you planned: for there is ao flower more dependable in the working out of color effects.

The oldest of these classes is the Breeder, so called because the old Lutherans' Religious Activities Pastor Carl J. Goette' reports an attendance of at Sunday School sessions yesterday In Bt John's Lutheran Church. Perfect attendance olasses were those of Fred Bunkhart, Max Huber, Art our Ai brecht Mrs. Jessie Dendo, Mrs. Crystal Elohmann and Mrs.

Margaret Nelson. The Monthly Sunday School Messenger was oHstrlbuted. It revealed that Mrs. Jessie Dawdo's class had ths largest numiber of perfect attendance marks during September; Arthur Albrect's class contributed most to the Sunday School and Max Huber's class contributed most to missions.

Dutch breeders grew ttitm to pre duce striped varieties, which were highly esteemed centuries ago. The solid colors of some sowers in eacn planting would "break" into gay, stripes and blotches, and these wera the desired kinds. It is now known that they ware afflicted with mosafa disease carried by aphids, and la American planting's they are rogued out, to prevent the spread of the disease. Cottage tulips originally wera smaller than either Breeders or Darwins, and had egg shaped blossoms with pointed petals; but in recent years they have been crossed with the other classes, and among the hybrids are the largest varieties yet produced, and many with large cup shaped blossoms of lovely color blends. Darwin tulips were introduced late in the last century, and are supposed to have been developed from Breeder parents.

They arc characterized by soft colors, with an overblown ef white, and a remarkable color range. The blossoms are cup shaped, on very tsU, strong stems. selection of the best varieties in each color would include all these classes, and when planted, or arranged in bouquets, together they are always harmonious.
