PLANT DEPARTMENT 
ROSES. 
DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING.—See that your ground is well loosened and fer- 
tilized before planting your Roses. Press the soil firmly around the plants with your 
foot and do not plant them too deep, just a trifle deeper than they were in the pots, and 
water after planting. 
While we are prepared to fill all orders for field-grown Roses at any time, they 
can be transplanted to better advantage after December 1st. 
If sold out of any variety of plant we will substitute another as good, unless 
instructed to the contrary. 
We strongly advise shipping by Express whenever practicable; this will enable us 
to send much stronger plants and guarantee safer delivery. If ordered by mail add 15 
per cent. of the value of plants to cover postage. When postage is not included we will 
send by Express at purchaser’s expense. No plants can be shipped into Florida. All 
plants sent to Mississippi and Arkansas must be sent by Express. 
We are not responsible for plants arriving in bad condition due to delay in trans- 
portation.
