HARRIS’ ASTERS—Continued 
Although the following Asters are not listed as ‘‘Wilt-Resistant’’ they are particularly 
good growers and should not be troubled by wilt unless grown in badly infected soil. 
Harris’ Early Dawn Asters 
A new class of extra early Asters of our own 
growing. They bloom so early that, with us, 
they are not affected by the tarnish plant 
bug. We grow them from seed without trans- 
planting. Many prefer them to Queen of the 
Market.

For those who have not been getting good 
blooms during the summer, we recommend 
sowing later (June 20th to July 1st). They will 
start flowering the last of August and continue 
throughout September and October. You will 
find the flowers comparing favorably with 
greenhouse grown stock in size and stem.
