used effectively as a foreplanting in the shrubbery border.

type. The color a rich non-fading amaranth-purple equal to the 
best greenhouse varieties in existence. Argonne is a very desirable 
cutting variety producing excellent sprays on long, rigid stems. In 
bloom in early October, will continue until heavy frost. Exception- 
ally free blooming and vigorous in growth with green disease- 
resistant foliage. Very hardy and reliable. 
FIESTA. An outstanding variety for color and substance. Brilliant 
orange-rust. The blooms are very crisp and long lasting. Full 
rounded, large button type, perfectly formed sprays on rigid stems. 
The unusual brilliance of this variety makes it a standout over other 
varieties, remaining intense and non-fading with age. In full bloom 
by October Ist, it is very free, vigorous and hardy. 
NOKOMIS. Attracting the most favorable comments whenever seen. 
Nokomis is a large-flowered Decorative type Pompon with perfect . 
form and a full, compact flower. It is one of the most vigorous 
growing Mums we have ever observed with remarkably healthy fo- 
liage. The blooms possess excellent substance, and it is the ideal 
autumn color, Indian-red fading to bronze. It begins flowering in 
late September and continues through October until heavy frost. 
Exceptionally hardy, we know it will survive the coldest winters. 
Judged by. the most exacting standards we would unhesitatingly 
award Nokomis the title of “MUM OF THE YEAR.”
