New Seedling 
Chrysanthemums for 1898. 
The following varieties were selected from over forty new seed- 
lings, they, in turn, being a careful selection of the best out of the 
hundreds of new seedlings raised by Mr. Thcs. H. Spaulding, from 
whom we purchased the entire stock upon his retirement from 
business. Some of the finest varieties in commerce came from him, 
and these are worthy of the raiser.
