THE AMERICAN ROSE SOCIETY 



first organized in 1899, now includes thousands of rose-lovers well distributed in every American state and 

 in twenty-five foreign countries. It is the largest and strongest organization in America devoted to one 

 flower, and it is growing continually in membership, facilities, and rose influence. 



All new American Roses must be registered with it and most foreign growers gladly send it advance information. It arranges rose 

 pilgrimages and great rose shows, and provides suggestions, medals, and certificates for the successful conduct of local rose exhibitions. 

 It is in cooperation with the Federal Department of Agriculture in the supervised introduction of wonderful new Roses, adapted to 

 America and hybridized by the late Dr. W. Van Fleet. Members have free access for information to the Committee of Consulting 

 and Advising Rosarians, including the twenty men in America best fitted to answer rose questions. 



THE AMERICAN ROSE ANNUAL 



is published exclusively for members. It is a "Yearbook of Rose Progress" which includes only original expe- 

 riences and discussions from the world's rose authorities as well as from scores of acute members. It tells how 

 to do best with roses. A handsome cloth-bound book of permanent value, it is illustrated in color and sepia, 

 and is accepted all over the world as an accurate and up-to-date publication necessary to every live rose-lover. 

 Its successive issues will never be "out-of-date," though several are out of print. 



The 1922 American Rose Annual described every important new rose produced anywhere in the world, and illustrated the 

 best of them; it presented the last scientific word on protecting roses against insects and diseases, 1 and told about soils and 

 fertilizers; it told of notably successful small rose-gardens, of rose-show plans, of climbing roses, and of many other rose facts im- 

 portant to the amateur. The 1923 Annual will present many important articles on rose prosperity. 



The members of the American Rose Society are brought into acquaintance with each other for mutual benefit. 



To get the best out of your roses and of rose relations, you need to be joined with others in this organization, which conducts 

 each year voting referendums on the best roses. Membership costs but $3 annually, and members only receive the Annual and 

 other publications getting access to rose help and to rose friends. 



Send $3 for membership directly to the Secretary* or to The Conard & Jones Company, West Grove, Pa., who will forward it 

 in due course. You will also receive a membership card which secures admission to all rose shows in which the Society participates.
