CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
SPIDER MUMS 
This new Type Chrysanthemum is becoming very popular 
and responds wonderfully well to disbudding. Although some 
varieties are only semi-hardy, they can be carried over win- 
ter with a little protection and if you are in sections where 
early frosts are prevalent a temporary protection made of 
water-proof paper 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 
blooming varieties.
