Zora — An early flowering bright yellow Pompon 

 of graceful form and having large flowers on good 

 stems. Certificated by C. S. A. (Smith.) 



Illona — Late flowering Pompon rosy lavender 

 color. The flowers are well borne and very freely 

 produced. Certificated. (Smith.) 



Excelsior — One of the most beautiful of this season's novelties, partic- 

 ularly adapted to vase work. Its petalage is light but tough. Its color is a 

 delightful dark terra cotta, with greenish yellow centre. The flowers may be 

 had on long single stems. 



Golden Queen — Incurved, clear yellow, matur- 

 ing early in October. Acceptably received as an 

 early commercial flower. (Smith.) 



Cranfordia — An improvement on last years Cranford Yellow. A deeper 

 and more pleasing yellow and somewhat sturdier of habit. Plants may be 

 grown ten and twelve shoots to a plant. The flowers in our photograph 

 were four and five inches across, on long single stems. Good outdoors, or in 

 pots under glass. 



Crystal Gem — A white for commercial purposes, 

 coming into bloom during latter part of October. 

 The bloom is well formed and solid. (Smith.) 



A. S. Baldwin — A shapely light yellow incurved 

 Japanese, good for exhibition or commercial use, 

 with broad and strong petals. Its habit of growth 

 is good, and it should do well anywhere. 



R. B. Burge — A glistening white with yellow centre, is one of the best of 

 the single chrysanthemums. The variety may be grown and flowered out- 

 side, or brought indoors for finishing. The form of the flower makes it ex- 

 cellent for packing and shipping. 



MODELLE — A new color in commercial blooms, 

 closely approaching orange, with tinges of amber. 

 It comes in during the full November season. 

 Certificated. (Smith.)
