THIS does not concern itself with those magnificent creations that 

 dominate the 'Mum Shows. Rather would we here sing the praise 

 of those spicy little fellows that carry on outdoors, when all the rest 

 of the flowers have retired for their winter's rest. It is the hardy Chrysanthemum of the various types 

 and varieties as offered below, that provides our table with floral decorations clear up to Thanksgiving. 

 By feeding the plants liberally with well-rotted manure and by occasionally disbudding a plant or two (as 

 you would Dahlias), many of the varieties off^ered produced flowers of very commendable size. 



Their culture is easiest: Plant them in any good soil, 2 feet apart. When the young shoots are 6 

 inches tall, pinch out the center of each stalk, and repeat this until the middle of i\ugust, when sturdy, 

 bushy plants should have developed. A mulching wnth well-decomposed cow manure will result in extra- 

 sized flowers in unusual quantities. 



BETTY WATKINS— Golden yellow overlaid 

 with old gold and bronze. Tall growing; large 

 flowered; one of the very best.

 riety, in its deep golden yellow, in the cut-
