WHEN ORDERING MUM CUTTINGS 
Please indicate the earliest date delivery will be acceptable and the maxt- 
mum number of cuttings that can be handled in a single shipment. 
To serve you best, it is necessary that we have your order at least a 
month in advance of requested delivery date, although often it is possible to 
make shipment on short notice. 
Where we are unable to ship very close to the requested delivery date 
we will advise you of our growers best estimate of delivery. We suggest you 
advise whether substitutions will be acceptable when giving the order.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS EVERY MONTH 
Fundamentals of successful Chrysanthemum culture will probably 
always remain the same, except, as more progress is made probably we will 
see more gravel culture. Black Cloth shading for early flowers has become 
standard practice and as cotton goods become more readily available, we will 
see even more. Recent experiments by Dr. Kenneth Post at Cornell Unitvers- 
ity have shown it is possible to produce cut Chrysanthemums of good 
quality at any time during the year by the use of lights and shading. 
Three crops can be produced in the same bench each year, timed exactly 
as wanted. 
Best varieties for winter flowering were Seafoam, Sunnyside, Omega, 
Valencia, Golden Jane and Riviera. As further experiments are continued 
other varieties will be found most suitable for various seasons. We would 
suggest growers interested in this new development contact your State 
experiment station. Our propagators are arranging to have cuttings avail- 
able throughout the entire year for those who wish to follow this program.
