CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
SPIDER MUMS 
This new Type Chrysanthemum is becoming very popular 
and responds wonderfully well to disbudding. Although they 
are only semi-hardy, they can be carried over winter with 
a little protection and if you are in sections where early 
frosts are prevalent a temporary protection made of water- 
proof paver sides with a sash on top and a couple of electric 
light. bulbs inside will give the necessary protection for 
the early damaging frosts for Spiders and other late bloom- 
ing varieties.
