beautiful color and very desirable where early flowers are required. Matures

hence we have placed it among the garden varieties. Color, bright yellow, is very 
free flowering. Height of plant fifteen inches. Flowers one and one-quarter inches

tiful color and very desirable where early flowers are required. Flowers Sep¬

For the benefit of those interested in the small flowering or button type of 
Chrysanthemums for this purpose we recommend the following. They are all free 
flowering and dwarf, coming into flower in this locality before severe frosts. Of 
the small or Baby Pompons are such as Bonnibel, Ethel, Margot and Padoka. (See 
page 16). Of the larger or Intermediate Pompons Irene, Jewell, Leilah and Rodell 
are among the best. (See page 19.) Benoit described among the pot varieties 
(page 28) is also exceedingly fine for this purpose. 
Plants from 2*4 inch pots: $0.15 each, $1.00 per ten, $7.50 per hundred. 
Not less than 5 of a variety at ten; 25 at hundred rate. 
Odd Formed Varieties 
This type in most instances is unsatis¬ 
factory for general commercial use. The 
reason is the petals are so long and fragile 
that they cannot, without injury, be shipped 
and handled as most chrysanthemums are. 
To those who arrange their own products 
they are quite serviceable for the grace and 
beauty they impart.
