NEW QUANTITY DISCOUNTS ON 
POT PLANTS AND ROOTED CUTTINGS 
8 of any one variety — less 10% 
20 of any one variety — less 20% 
Rooted Cuttings have proved so satisfactory for our 
customers, as they stand shipment so well, and produce 
such wonderful plants, that we have reduced the price 
on many varieties by selling two of a kind for 50c, 
where plants cost 40c to 50c. In fact all varieties of 
Mums except the Novelties listed on this page are 
2 Rooted Cuttings of a kind for 50c. By selling them 
only in multiples of two facilitates ordering, booking 
and shipping, and gives you more for your money. 
Rooted Cuttings can be planted direct in your garden 
with partial protection or potted and held for a few 
weeks before planting. 
CHRYSANTHEMUM CULTURE 
SOIL PREPARATION. You will find many helpful sug- 
gestions on Soil preparation and Fertilizing in our Dahlia 
Culture which hold good for Mums with the exception 
that preparation of hills is not recommended. Mums 
will stand more manure and more water than dahlias 
will. Mums should never be allowed to suffer for the 
need of water. 
PLANT in well prepared ordinary garden soil 8 to 
10 inches apart, in rows 15 inches apart for mass 
planting. Rows can be 3 to 4 feet apart for cultivating. 
When plants are established in the garden and have 
developed 2 or 3 pairs of mature leaves the center 
of the main growth should be pinched out. Should you 
want exhibition blooms in limited numbers, then limit 
the number of branches to 3 or 4. For Garden Varieties, 
Pompons, etc., 6 or 8 stems are not too many. 
When Mums are planted early and topped out as 
recommended we find it advantageous to again top 
out the center growth and main growth branches about 
July 15th. This will give you a more uniform growth 
and blooms will open at a uniform time.
