Shading Mums 
We list information concerning the varieties of MUMS for 
shading to bloom earlier than natural blooming time. It may be 
profitable for you to do this. It may also be worth your while 
to delay flowering period and lengthen your Mum-selling season. 
Refer to pages 30 and 31. 
CASCADE VARIETIES 
The.se varieties are becoming popular. They are very 
showy. In the various exhibits at the recent National 
Chrysanthemum Convention at Indianapolis, they were 
greatly admired by everybody. Grow them for store win¬ 
dow, show and other decorative occasions. See page 27. 
FOR MORE PROFIT 
The following varieties of Pompons can be grown more profit¬ 
ably because they can be planted a little closer than the regular 
run of Pompons. It is not necessary to give them the usual space 
in the benches or beds. They can be planted as close as a variety 
like New York.
