breeding hardy Chrysanthemums. Our aim has been to test 
all of the varieties on the market and rogue out all those 
that did not meet our specific standards for hardiness, 
season, color, growing habit, resistance to disease, sub- 
stance and length of season. From the few remaining var- 
ieties we have made thousands of individual hand pollinated 
crosses from which we grow many thousands of seedlings each 
yeor. From these only a few ane saved and-these are crosred .. 
with themselves or standard varieties and sometimes recross-. 
ed to produce the new varieties we now are offering and 
have under trial. Se
