not to bring peace, but war? For

revolutionary in the extreme. 1t
was not so conspicuously so in its
later year, however this revolution
has conquered the world.
Most of the pictures of Christ
show Him as a man of no virility.
Painters would have you believe
that he was nothing more than a

Jesus Christ is a red-blooded, two

the intrenchments of darkness. he
is revolutionary. His fists are bar

THE cRYSANTHEMUM
BY MRS. W. II. BOWERS

The Chrysanthemum has been
called the "Quccn Of Autumn, %
No flower ig more deserving Of the

comes with is shower Of red and
gold leaves, its clusters of brilliant
red berries, It's cool nights and
sunny golden October days. there

II is the evolution Of a tiny 1T
tle wild hillside Chinese Aster. A
thoughtful Eutomologist saw posi-
bilities in this hardy little plant and
worked for years, with unceasing
energy to produce double row Of
petals.
Later an Australian took up the
task and after many experiments IN
polinizing, gave to the world the
small yellow and white pompom
chrysanthemUms.
The dreams Of the Chinese Euto-
mologist and Australian plant lover
were realized by an English Noble
man, who ~ building on the foun-
datian which they had laid, brought
forth the wonderful and many col
ored varieties which we see in the
flower shows Of today.
The Japanese, worshiping it's riot

chose the Chrysanthemum for the
national emblem. II means a great
deal to bring a Chrysanthemum
plant to perfection of foliage and
blossom. No Persian rug weaver
ever worked with more infinite pat
fence than does the grower who
produces a blue ribbon Chrysantho-
mum.
The first step toward growing a
perfect Chrysanthemum is a scien-
tific knowledge Of the requisites Of
The soil. One must know how and
when to select plants and put them
out. From the very dav these
plants are put in the ground. up "a
maturity they are besset by insects
which bite the roots, chew the stems
and gnaw the leaves.
When the buds begin to develop
and petals unfold, then from seem

grower comes into the garden and
finds six leaves near the top Of her
finest plant ehewed into lace work,
thereby losing the ten points which
would have entitled her to the blue
ribbon. More than likely the ma
rauder has crawled away to other
fields, leaving one TO anathematize
his passing.
Wood lice and grub worms are
usually busy at the Towering seas
on, wood lice enter the stem of the
full grown plant causing it to with

For the encouragement Of the
amateur, let me say: The expe-

bud will bring the perfect blossom,
but what is grower to do, when It
would puzzle even Philadelphia
lawyer to decide between a crown

In many cases a false bud, reser-

main stem. This being removed,
laterals will put forth below-from
which the best should be selected as
