} ou don’t definitely know whether a crop is a loss or a profit without a cost accounting system. 
*Ball Double White. Since introducing this strain in ’34, 
demand for it is constantly increasing as a standard green¬ 
house and outdoor cut flower crop. Plants from a Jan. or 
Feb. sowing produce a full crop of flowers outdoors this 
summer and can then be lifted and transplanted indoors in 
November for a forced spring greenhouse crop. Differs from 
ordinary cutting propagated strain in having smaller and 
more compact completely double flowers that hold up much 
better in shipping and handling. Responds readily to addi¬ 
tional lighting for forcing.
