(Washlneton Bureau or the \. b. 4AeraIo.l
 Washington, D. C., Aug. 7-Home gardeners in Connecticut may soon be able to have chrysanthcmums bossoming in great masses in Sep tember. as the result of 10 years experimentation by the United States department of agriculture of produce a hardy carly blooming chrysanthemum for the northern states.
 About twenty plants burst into bloom the first week in August, in the Arlington experiment farm of the department of agriculture, indi- eating that the experiment is ap- preaching success. For ten years F. L. Mulford, horticulturist in charge of experimentation with ornam ental plants at the Arlington farm here, has been selecting and planting the seeds of the earliest chrysanthe- nuns produced. Each year he also saves the hardest and earliest blooming plants.
 Then he eliminates any plants which do not produce early blooms every year. Many plants die of the cold during the winter, so that all plants not hardy enough for northern climate are automatically eliminated.
 MT. Mulford now has more than 5000 seedlings which he watches for early blossoms. and about 175 plants saved from previous years. He expects to have about 15,000 seedlings next year, and to save some 150 to 200 plants which this year produce the best and earliest blooms. In this way he hopes to evolve soon a variety of chrysanthe- nuns which will blossom during September in New England.
 The single varieties are now pro- ducing the best results, Mir. Null
