Chrysanthemums 
**Football Mums’”’ 
Grow them in your garden. The following 
are giant blooming varieties, grown by com- 
mercial florists, that bloom in October. They 
must be taken up and potted in the North 
or given protection as they are not winter 
hardy. To produce the extra large blooms 
fertilize plants, also be sure to stake. Plants 
grown this way are magnificent. Chrysan- 
themums are strong feeders and respond to 
both commercial and organic fertilizer.
