NOTE ON PACKING CHARGE 



Our packing charge of 50c applies to any order which 

 totals less than $10.00. 



It applies also to any part of an order which is shipped 

 to a different address at your request, or to the same 

 address at a different time, if that part amounts to less 

 than $10.00. 



FALL PLANTING 



We recommend fall planting of Roses: in late October 

 for northern states; from November until the ground freezes 

 in southern states. In fall, the earth is mellow and right for 

 planting. Put a mound of soil up around the stems after 

 planting and the Roses will be ready to grow when spring 

 comes. 



MAIL-ORDER shipments will be made at proper time for 

 planting in your locality. Dormant Roses can be planted until 

 just before the ground freezes for the winter. 



NOTE: Rose plants may be picked up at the nursery AFTER 

 NOVEMBER 1, but not before that date.

 delphia, Pa., 14 miles from Wilmington, Del., 65 miles
