CULTURE OF ROSES IN POTS. For house culture the various types of Everblooming Roses will give 
a succession of bloom if treated in the following manner: Drain the pots well with broken bits of crock; mix one 
part of well-rotted cow manure with two parts of light, friable soil, and press firmly about the roots in potting. 
Keep well watered during the summer, more scantily in fall and winter. Pinch off all flower-buds until winter, and 
then give all the sunlight possible. Keep your plants clean and growing. About 60 degrees is the best temper- 
ature for window or general indoor culture.
