Are You Successful 

 with Roses? 



You can be if you plant Fairfax Roses and 



follow the clear instructions given in my new 

 Rose Book, which will be gladly sent you free of 

 charge, upon receipt of your name and address. 



Fairfax Roses 



are grown under natural conditions and their 

 gorgeous blooms are not the result of forcing 

 in hot greenhouses, but are the outcome of 

 careful breeding and wise selection. They 

 are hardy bushes that will thrive in YOUR 

 garden, no matter where you live, and they 

 will bloom freely THIS season because they 

 have been wintered 

 out of doors and are 

 vigorously healthy. 



If you are having 

 trouble with your roses 

 that you do not under- 

 stand write me about 

 it and I will gladly 

 advise you what to do.
