of manure with a little dirt mixed in over 

 the top. The sweepings from paved 

 streets would be about right and are 

 really better than the manure alone. 

 Start the cuttings in the pots they are to 

 be left in, so that they will not have to be 

 changed after they are started. Water 

 occasionally so as not to let them dry out. 

 To have fine large blooms, cut off all the 

 buds except two or three on the center 

 stems. I have seen blooms as large as a 

 saucer when all the buds but one were 

 cut off. 



Yery frequently the plants are troubled 

 with small black lice. Tobacco smoke 

 will entirely destroy them. To destroy 

 small worms in the soil stick matches, 

 either burned or unburned, in the dirt 

 around the plant. Rusty nails stuck in 

 the dirt are good to brighten the color 

 of the flowers. 



Ohio. G. W. P. 



The three leading varieties of chrysan- 

 themums are Chinese, Japanese and 

 Pompon. Their propagation and cultiva- 

 tion is quite easy, the plants being raised 

 from cuttings or dividing the roots. Bring 

 the old plants from their winter quarters 

 in March and keep in a cool room. When 

 of proper size break off cuttings and set 

 to root. As soon as rooted pot in small 

 pots, changing to larger pots as they 

 become root bound. Use good rich soil 

 and plenty of well rotted manure. After 

 the last repotting, which should be the 

 first of September, use liquid manure 

 once a week. If chrysanthemums are 

 raised in the garden, plant out the first of 

 June, using plenty of well rotted manure ; 

 tie to stakes. Pinch out the top of the 

 main stalk when twelve inches high, the 

 side shoots when eight inches high. Don't 

 pinch back after the first of September, 

 "or the buds are set." Give water in 

 abundance with liquid manure, and keep 

 the earth loose so the water will penetrate 

 the soil. Lift the plants in September 

 and protect from sun and wind for a few 

 days.

Self-Hypnotic Healing! 



I have made a late discovery that enables all to induce the 

 hypnotic sleep in themselves instantly, awaken at any desired 

 time and thereby cure all known diseases and bad habits. 

 Anyone can induce this sleep in themselves instantly at first 

 trial, control their dreams, read the minds of friends and ene- 

 mies, visit any part of the earth, solve hard questions and 

 problems in this sleep and remember all when awake. This 

 so-called Mental-Vision Lesson will be sent to anyone absolute- 

 ly FREE, actually enabling him to do the above without charga 

 whatever. Prof. R. E. BUTTON, Dept. F. W.
