EARLY VARIETIES OF THIS YEAR. The fall of 1902 brought some delight- ful revelations in new chrysanthemums, but the present season promises to sur- pass the former in interest, judging by the blooms developed on October 15 and the other buds rapidly expanding in the most wonderful collection we have ever had the pleasure of trying. Among the earlies Carrie (Wells) is a beautiful Sep- tember yellow of fine color; Goacher's Crimson is a nice, formal red for early October; this variety is having quite a run in England. On October 15 we pho- tographed ten varieties, all of them large enough for exhibition. Ethel Fitzroy has the rich coloring of Source d'Or or Kate Broomhead, it has broad incurving petals and builds up a fine, long stemmed flower. Miss Olive Miller is probably the best for the date in the pink or lavender sec- tion. The color is very pleasing, and it is a fine, large, reflexing flower, with incurved center. Mrs. A. McKinley is a very pleasing shade of bufi'and orange and light red. The form is very fine, a full incurved, or, from a second bud, incurving at the cen- ter with reflexing outer petals. Among the French sorts EtienneBonne- tond stands preeminent for size and build, a grand incurved, SVi inches straight through, and of good buS'color. Mile. Marthe Morel is a lively pearl pink, very broad and of V. Morel style, fine for this date and very beautiful. Neveu R
