JJT of over 200 sorts which we tested we have 

 selected those named below as the most 

 desirable, and all bloomed the latter part 

 of September and during early October. 

 Hitherto the great objection to Chrysanthernums in 

 our Northern States was that the frost destroyed 

 most of the flowers before coming to maturity.

 brilliant caimine, lightened with white ; entirely new. (See cwi.)
