For Screen Planting and Borders, or for Beautifying 

 the Unsightly 

 Almost every lawn might be improved if some uncomely 

 object or portion in the rear were screened from view. The 

 right kind of roses will do it, and give you something beautiful 

 instead. There are two methods: (1) Put up a trelhs and 

 train over it the roses named in the above section; or (2), if 

 a low screen is desired, you need only to plant the tall, erect- 

 growing Rugosa roses. And if you want a luxuriant growth, 

 dig the ground deeply and give these roses plenty of rich 

 nourishment. 



Birdie BIye. Pink. Hugonis. Yellow. 



Conrad F. Meyer. Silvery pink. May Queen. Pink. 



Christine Wright. Pink. Ruby Queen, Ruby-red. 



Harison's Yellow. Sir Thomas Lipton. \^'hite. 



These eight varieties, if set in one group, should be placed at 

 least 2 to 3 feet apart. 



Wonderfully pleasing effects may be obtained for screening 

 out undesirable objects or views by the erection of trelhs for- 

 mations. These may be made of various designs and materials, 

 but, for roses, wood seems to be preferred. Over these train 

 the roses recommended above.
