identical with Dorothy Dennison and Christine Curie but color in

Bagatelle Rose Trials, 1917—18. — A trial of rose novelties will be 
made at Bagatelle, near Paris, in 1917-1918, as in past years. Plants 
sent for competition should have been raised in pots, and several 
specimens — five at least — must be sent to the Rosary at Bagatelle 
before April 15, 19 17. A note must be attached as to their origin 
and parentage, and stating any special treatment required. The 
plants will be placed in the public Rosary as soon as they reach 
Bagatelle. They will remain there until the month of October of the 
second year, so that the jury may be able to study, during two seasons, 
the flowering and quality of vegetation. The address to which 
plants must be sent is: — Roseraie de Bagatelle au Bois de Boulogne, 
En gare de Neuilly-Porte-Maillot-Paris. 
The following interesting table has been compiled by Mr. William 
C. Egan, Egandale, Highland Park, 111. 
The roses, forty-two varieties in all, were planted at Egandale in 
March, 1915. There are three plants of each variety. The record 
was kept during June and July, 1916.
