GRAFTED ROSES 



Five hundred thousand this year and half of them 

 sold! The old, worn-out section won't do for the days 

 that are to come — days when production will tell the 

 story of profit or loss. Labor is plenty. Dig in 

 and replant. We can still supply the best that can 

 be produced, before-the-war quality; better shipping 

 conditions, better deliveries than we have had in the 

 past few years. Get good soil under and good roofs 

 over our grafted roses and watch things grow! 



Let us know the verdict!
