CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



There were many things at the Chi- 

 cago exhibition that were suggestive and 

 helpful. The pompon class was particii- 

 lavly interesting and many of the vari- 

 eties offer opportunities for trial and 

 experiment by the man who retails the 

 flowers he grows and can use the pretty 

 sprays of bloom in floral arrangements. 



Intermediary varieties, as the old Di- 

 ana, should also be useful on account of 

 their fine finish and beautiful symmetry, 

 and growing as they do in less space, 

 thus enabling one to meet the calls of 

 customers for lower priced flowers. 



Talking with growers of pot mums they 

 laid special stress upon the labor of feed- 

 ing with manure water and the ever 

 present danger of an overdose. I find 

 feeding with liquid unnecessary and ob- 

 tain the best results by another method. 

 When giving the plants their last shift 

 I put an inverted smaller pot over the 

 drainage hole, for instance an inverted 

 3-lneh pot or pan is placed over the 

 drainage hole of a 6-inch pot, and so on. 

 When the plant has set its buds this 

 pot is removed and the space is filled 

 with nearly fresh cow manure, bone meal 

 and ashes, with merely a broken crock 

 for drainage. 



The roots immediately close in upon 

 this and have an abundance of food to use 

 in building up the flower. The plant Is 

 the best judge of what it needs and the 

 discriminating roots will take up or leave 

 alone the food placed within reach.
