CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
FRANCES WHITTLESEY 
T HESE beautiful Chrysanthemums are quite hardy needing 
just a little dry leaves or straw to keep the sun from injuring 
the crowns in Winter. Plant them in a rich, well drained piece 
of ground setting the plants a foot apart and pinching out the 
tops once or twice during the Summer, but not later than July 
15th. They will make well branched plants that will furnish 
quantities of flowers after Asters, Dahlias or Cosmos are cut 
down by frost. The following varieties have been carefully 
selected as to earliness, hardiness and productiveness from trials on 
our own grounds.
