• The number of special forms of Hardy types is be¬ 
wildering. The new Korean types, for instance, are prov¬ 
ing most acceptable and charming. The outdoor Chry¬ 
santhemum is most certainly coming into its own; you 
should stock up with the newer kinds and enjoy weeks of 
pleasure in a garden full of flowers at a season when 
the garden begins to look bare. A splendid way to do 
this is to have your plants growing in pots or in a service 
garden. They lift perfectly and move with little trouble. 
Try this and you will thank us for the suggestion. 
EARLY FLOWERING 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
The cultivation of these ’Mums is simple; plant them 
in a rich well-drained piece of ground, setting out the 
plants a foot apart and pinching them once or twice dur¬ 
ing the months of May or June. They will branch out 
and make beautiful bushes and give the cultivator more 
return for the labor expended than any plant in the gar¬ 
den. There is a place for this type of ’Mum in every 
garden in America, whether one has greenhouses, frames, 
or grows them in the open garden.
