Smith's Advance. Pure white; very early. 

 Polly Rose. An early variety. Pure white; dwarf

 strong, rigid stem and perfect fohage. This will be a 

 companion for Chrysolora, coming into perfection 

 October 15. Height 4 feet. Best bud August 30. 



Early Frost. A very early commercial white. A seed- 

 ling of Golden Glow. Height 3 feet. Pure white 

 flowers, perfect in form and full to the center. Has 

 the Golden Glow habit to set early buds. The best 

 new white variety. 



White Chieftain. A novelty of last season and a 

 sport from the well-known pink variety. On the first 

 crown buds it shows a tinge of pink. On the late 

 buds it is pure white. It is ideal in form and one of 

 the best white commercials for cutting about No- 

 vember I. 



Charles Razer. Pure white with strong stem; foliage 

 as handsome as Eaton; flowers much like Bonnaffon 

 in form, but larger. A very easy doer. Blooming 

 date November i. 



Ivory. An old standard for medium-sized bloom.

 white bloom. It has been the leader in its class for 

 years. 



Lynnwood Hall. A late white, noted for its purity of 

 color. 



Mrs. Jerome Jones. Pure white in color; blooms the 

 middle of November. 



W. H. Chadwick. For the markets that want select 

 stock, something that is better than the ordinary, 

 this variety stands alone. Pinkish to a slight extent 

 when grown cool, it is even more charming than when 

 pure white. 



White Helen Frick. Pure white sport of Helen 

 Frick; very late.

 yellow is desired.

 it is a seedling, and is ten days earlier. Fine, incurved

 foliage. The best novelty for commercial growers
