Dreer’s ‘*‘Peerless’’ Rose Food 
Following careful experiments we are prepared to supply a special food that will 
aid your Roses toward unusual vigor and freedom of bloom.

base. Other organic as well as mineral elements have been added so that each ap- 
plication will furnish available food for a good period of time. ‘‘Peerless’” Rose Food
