ROSES FOR MISSOURI 



From a local correspondent. The climate 

 is trying and hardiness must be sought. Still 

 there are surprises in store, as some of the 

 Teas do well, with protection from frost in 

 winter, of course.

Malmaison (H.T.), rich flesh. 



Kaiserin Augusta Victoria (H.T.), white.
