You Ought to Have More of the Palm 

 Business of Your Town or City 



— and Hcacock's Palms will help you to get it ! There's a lively demand in every 

 locality, as you know, for good Palms — both from persons who purchase outright, 

 and from those who rent for weddings, receptions, social functions, etc. In either 

 case, you can supply the demand with profit to your self by furnishing Heacock'« 

 Palms — Kentias, Cocos, Arecas, etc. 



We grow them by the thousands and our men are real Palm experts. Our 

 stock is vastly superior to any imported stu0 you could buy — our Plants are clean, 

 healthy, vigorous, acclimateo. 



The accompanying iIlustr;ttion shows how perfectly they mature under our 

 care. We would like to fill a sample order from you — for » dozen or a carload — 

 each specimen just as perfectly developed as this one.

a bush lor every Garden," is with us a 

 condition and not a theory. 



This sentiment is good, but in my 

 opinion far too modest, and I hereby 

 beg to make a motion to amend and 

 substitute, "Roses for every Home, 

 Roses for every Garden." The motto 

 of the Portland Rose Festival Associa- 

 tion is, "Roses fragrant, roses rare, 

 Roses, Roses, everywhere," and this Is 

 consistent with the feelings, opinions, 

 and practice of our people. 

 Wild Roses. 



Wild roses of many species are in- 

 digenous and flourish in luxuriant 

 foliage and wealth of bloom. The frag- 

 rant sweetbrier, vigorous and strong, 

 in many place?, lines our country 

 roads. In some districts of deep allu- 

 vial soil, the swamp brier attains a 

 height of 20 feet or more. High up 

 some mountain slope, we find wild 

 roses rioting amid the liuckleberry, 

 sallal, and other native shrubs. 



The late Rev. Dean Hole, a great 

 rosarian and one of the originators of 

 the National Rose Society of England, 

 in his invaluable "Book About Roses," 

 says in effect that wherever wild roses 

 grow, rose culture may successfully be 

 done. "Without a doubt there are in 

 our soil, climate, and surroundings, 

 qualities peculiarly conducive to rose 

 growing. Eastern people are often sur- 

 prised at the size, perfection, and 

 beauty of roses in this country. To 

 emphasize this assertion, I will quote 

 the opinion of an expert, well known 

 to many of you, who visited Oregon in 

 1903. 



Sizes of Roses. 



I think it was Oregon and perhaps 

 Portland, that first realized all the good 

 characteristics of that fine variety

 perhaps one of the five most popular 

 roses in existence. It fairly revels in 

 the warm moist days of early summer 

 and responds to intelligent and gener- 

 ous treatment, with almost continuous 

 bloom from June until the frost of 

 winter. When I was an amateur, or 

 as we say here, "a Rose Crank," and
