The pig and the porcupine are descended from the same encestor, the “Porcupinus Max- fma,” which means, “Great Spine Covered~ Pig.” In the ¢ olden days all pigs were cov- ered with spines or quills.’ One day Bungdup, the Cau- casian chief, was cleaning out his long-stemmed clay pipe. For the joys of smoking were known to the ancients, for gotten in the middle ages, then re-discovered about 400 Years RgO. Bungdup selected a long quill from the back of the :nearesl plg. He inserted it in the stem and started to clean the pipe. i The quill stuck. Bungdup could have easily pulled it out, but, theough some unexplained freak, he placed his mouth (o the bowl of the pipe and emitted a blast from his pow- erful lungs. The quill flew straight for Bungdup's oldest wife, who was bending over to stir a dish of porridge. She presented a tar- Eet no self-respecting quill could resist.

The Caucasians began to de- nude their pigs of their quills. As fast as new ones grew out, they were plucked. Some of the pigs escaped to the woods and became the ancestors of the porcupine. After several generations of plucking, nature began to pro tect piggy from his tortures by refusing to grow more quilis and by substituting bristles And when piggy no longer had to devote part of his food to the nourishment of long quills, it was remarkable to notice how fat and tender he becamc.

The lily family multiplies itselt fairly rapidly from bulbs, he rays. More rapid progress can be made with seeds, but the plants will not run true to form. First Ismane Lily Grower. Mr. Plerce was the original Wash- ington grower of the ismane lily or Peruvian daffodil, a native South| American flower, which rapidly is making a place for itselt in American gardens. It bears a white flower with sreen stripes and with a very delicate perfume. It is not a true lily, but is a closer relative to the daffodil. Pierce is obtaining a considerable collection of the half-lilies which flourished in old-fashioned gardens, but which since have been greatly depleted. He hopes to do something to restore them to popularity. These include such flowers as the lily of the valley, the fairy lily and the day lily. The best results for Washington gardeners, Plerce believes, probably can be obtained from such varieties as the white Madonna lily and the Easter lily, which not only yield large blossoms of fine quality, but are fairly hardy. Comparatively little cultiva- tion, he believes, will produce for the amateur a glorlous succession of bloom in early Summer from these types. The one feature of their qul- tivation which must be watched very closely is the type of soil to which they are suited.” Some thrive in acld soil while others would die very quickly in such surroundings. Some insist on very damp surroundings,| W while others thrive best with little water. { By the Associated Press.
