STAR ROSE DUST 
This is the same all-purpose, ‘‘kill-’em-dead”’ formula- 
tion which we use to such good effect in our own rose 
growing fields. We’ve ‘‘beefed it up” this year by in- 
cluding the new bug and beetle killer, Sevin®). Now, 
with Sevin, Phaltan®, Kelthane and Lindane, Star 
Rose Dust provides the almost complete protection 
your roses deserve. Use it thinly for greatest effect and 
economy. Insects and disease hate it—roses love it— 
you'll appreciate having it on hand! Lb. $1.95; 4 lbs. 
$5.95; 25-lb. can $29.95, ppd.

This new do-it-all spray contains the same power- 
packed ingredients as Star Rose Dust. One pound 
makes 10 gallons of spray, and gives you the most 
complete plant protection possible in a single formula- 
tion. It’s economical and easy to use, and, of course, 
has been fully proved in regular use in our own fields. 
Most people use both Dust and Spray. See below for 
the reasons. A pound of Star Rose Spray goes a very 
long way. Lb. $3.65; 4 Ibs. $11.95, ppd. 
STAR ROSE GROW

as a starter solution in transplanting, and for leaf 
feeding of roses and other plants . . . especially to perk 
up old, starved or neglected plants. Essential minerals 
and chelated iron have been added to a basic formula 
which includes nitrogen 15%, available phosphoric 
acid 30% and potash 15% to give you a life-saving, 
pep-feed material that’s effective in a hurry. 2 to 4 
teaspoonfuls make a gallon of solution. Lb. $1.25, ppd. 
STAR ROSE FERTILIZER

plant. food . . . a rose fertilizer developed out of long 
experience in knowing what roses like. Contains or- 
ganic and inorganic material, available nitrogen, phos- 
phorus and potash in 7-7-7 analysis, as well as import- 
ant minor minerals. We believe this fertilizer is better 
for roses, mums and other flowers, lawns, vegetable 
gardens and wherever you need to give plants a bal- 
anced diet. Use it when you plant your roses and 
regularly thereafter. Star Rose Fertilizer has proved 
its worth to expert and amateur alike. 5 lbs. $1.75;

WHICH IS BETTER 
DUST OR SPRAY? 
Both give effective protection. Dusting is quicker be- 
cause you can keep your duster full for ready use aiter 
a rain. Spray, on the other hand, can be applied with 
better control. Many people use both, keeping a duster 
handy for quick application, and the sprayer for more 
leisurely and perhaps more effective application. Per- 
sonal preference will dictate your choice, but in either 
case, your roses will be well protected with Star Rose 
Spray and Dust. Remember that it isn’t necessary to 
deluge your plants; a little goes a long way—whether 
you dust or whether you spray. Use either or both 
regularly for positive control.
