HARDY GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
CHRYSANTHEMUM (Kris-an’-the-mum) 
Chrysanthemums have no equal as cut flowers. The early sorts will give good blooms by the first of July and by a. judicial 
choice of types you may have bloom until actual freezing weather. Many sorts are impervious to light frosts. Give plenty of moisture 
in full sun and fertilize heavily. Three or 4 inches of barnyard manure should be spaded into the soil ‘before planting is done. A 
teaspoonful of bone meal and another of superphosphate may be put in the bottom of the hole when PISE? is set out. A monthly feed- 
ing of some good commercial fertilizer will give exhibition blooms. 
WINTER PROTECTION—The best winter protection is nature’s own. In other words their own fone Never cut the old plants 
down in the fall. If further protection is desired use excelsior or evergreen boughs. Never use leaves, straw or other material that 
will smother the young new growth.
