for each spraying. Tartar of Emetic is not expensive and your local 
druggist should be able to get it for you, and a pound makes a lot of 
spray. If you are growing a lot of mums, why of course mix in larger 
quantities and use any good sprayer that throws a very fine mist. 
Late Introductions or Varieties That For One Reason 
or Other | Consider Outstanding In Their 
Respective Classes 
(In looking over catalogues of the mum specialists, selecting va- 
rieties I want to grow this year, I notice that practically all of them 
have “hiked” their prices on everything—even rooted cuttings are listed 
at from 10 to 25 cents each on varieties that have been out a year or 
two. However, I am listing my surplus as the same old price—it is 
easier to figure.) 
20 CENTS EACH; $2.00 PER DOZEN—YOUR SELECTION 
(Limited Stock) . 
CLARA CURTIS—a new introduction and has become very popular 
owing to its extreme earliness. Single salmon-pink Daisy-like flow- 
ers about 3 inches across in bloom from early September on. Habit 
of growth very spreading; height around 20 to 24 inches. Unusually 
hardy. 
DEAN KAY—A very outstanding and excellent variety of recent intro- 
duction, which was given great praise and publicity last year. Rose 
pink semi-double flowers of 2 inches, literally cover the plant, 
which is very bushy—about 2 feet tall and 2% feet across. Is ex- 
ceptionally early, beginning to bloom early in September. 
GOLDEN TINTS—This is an extra early bright yellow ready by Oc- 
tober 10 by selecting first bud that appears after August lst. At- 
tains a height of 3 ft. with strong stem and foliage close to bloom. 
A shade darker than Mrs. H. E. Kidder. Select bud from Aug. 5th 
to 25th. Blooms 8 inches in diameter. 
OCTOBER PRIDE—An extra-early incurved yellow that shades well. 
It has good substance and matures around October 15th when a 
crown bud is taken. Blooms are 6 inches and larger and remind 
one of Detroit News, except the color which is a good clear yellow. 
Very popular as an extra-early yellow. 
YELLOW QUAKER MAID—While a yellow sport of the old white fa- 
vorite, Quaker Maid, the past year it was the best very early yellow 
in the garden. Consequently I am listing it this year for those who 
wish an extra early incurved clear yellow bloom. 
MITY NICE—A large lavender pink of perfect globe type; is of medium 
height and will mature its bloom by mid-October from a bud se- 
lected in late August. This variety has proven excellent for shad- 
ing, as it holds its color well. 
WHITE EAGLE-—A large reflex white that may be grown practically 
as large as the Turners. It is a short compact grower and may be 
grown in pots; also shades well. By selecting a mid-August bud one 
may obtain a very large perfect bloom by October 20th. Should be 
better known on account of its earliness and extra large blooms. 
YELLOW EAGLE—The yellow sport or mutation of the above variety; 
it is identical in ali other respects. 
MAJOR EDWARD BOWES—An outstanding 1936 introduction. It is a 
bright rosy pink—brighter than J. W. Prince, and the color is inten- 
sified under artificial light. Fully double from any bud but best bud 
around August 30th. Six inch incurved blooms, mature around Oct- 
ober 18th. With me held its color under our hot sun.
