THE ROMANS 



Knew it too! 



Cicero says, "There is no 

 more sure tie between 

 friends than when they 

 are united in their ob- 

 jects and their wishes." 



We give every order the 

 personal service and at- 

 tention you would give.

anco. I know of no better method of 

 checking this disease than to spray 

 with a sulphur solution, which seems to 

 be satisfactory in cheeking the spread 

 of this disease. As an instance of what 

 may bo done, I can cite our own case 

 where this trouble appeared in a bench 

 of fine plants of nninis. Our grower got 

 a fine sprayer and attaclied it to the 

 Jiose and sprayd the plants \ igorously 

 during the month of August on the uu- 

 "Icr side of the leaves. This method, 

 ^vllich was rej)eated on two or three oc- 

 casions, seemed to be entirely eflicacious 

 in ridding us of the disease, l)ecause, as 

 a matter of fact, these same ]dants are 

 growing iu the liouse today and arc en 

 tirtdy free fro:a clyndrospoiuni. 



Bud Selection. 



The matter of Inul selection is (|iiite 

 iiii]iortant. If one is dealing in early 

 varieties, it is necessary to catch the 

 bud early in August, if "the ilowcrs arr 

 to be produced from September J.") on- 

 wards. Varieties such as Golden (ilov*-, 

 etc., may be taken earlier th.an this, if 

 one wishes to bring the plants into 

 llower in August, but no one wants 

 mums this early iu the season, save as 

 a "freak,"' since there is no market for 

 them. My own o])inion is that there is 

 no need fur uium- until the early d:iy-- 

 of October and. even then, iu :i >f.ir 

 •such as this, wiiii the cpi.-intily of d.ilil 

 ias available, there does nut seem to be 

 any frantic rush for mums. Buds taken 

 from August ]0 {„ l'.I, .is a rule, will give 

 satisfactory flowers on the early vari- 

 eties. 



While the ■pi.'-uit ity of mums grown 

 for the New York market is phenomenal 

 and even though the dahlia makes 

 frantic efTorts to compete v.ith them in 

 the early fall, the fact remains that as
