HASTENING THE FLOWERING OF ASTERS 
To secure earliness in blooming of ASTERS out of doors it is necessary to illuminate the seedlings with addi- 
tional light. Use 25-watt lamps suspended two feet above the bench and have them lighted from 6 P.M. to 
10 P.M. for at least five weeks before planting, each lamp to cover sixteen square feet of area. The seed is 
normally sown in the middle of March and the additional illumination is started after the seedlings have been 
transplanted. This additional light is continued until the middle of May when the plants are planted out of doors. 

The above treatment will increase the earliness of your crop by two to four weeks. The Early Royal Branching, 
American Branching and Improved Crego varieties will respond very satisfactorily to this treatment.
