ROSES 
The new varieties of hardy garden Roses are many 
and it is confusing to know just which ones to select. 
We try out a good many every year and those which 
seem adapted to our climate are added to our list. There 
are many of the older, well-tried varieties which should 
not be overlooked, as they rank with the best. We in¬ 
clude those which we can unhesitatingly recommend as 
being worthy of a place in any garden. 
A light clay soil is the best for roses, but they will 
grow well in any good garden soil. For profusion of 
bloom they should be well fertilized and given plenty of 
water during the dry summer. In the fall hill up the 
earth and cover with mulch after the ground is frozen, 
and in the spring prune back to within eight or ten buds. 
All budded roses should be planted so that the union in¬ 
dicated by a crook in the stem is below the ground. 
Dormant roses should be well watered and the tops 
protected from the sun until the buds show growth, for 
the failure of most roses to live is due to a lack of mois¬ 
ture. 
If possible, please give second choice of a variety as, 
unless advised to the contrary, whenever our stock of a 
variety is exhausted, we will make a substitution as near 
to color and habit as possible. 
Prices on roses are for dormant plants which we can 
furnish until about May 1st. After that time we can 
supply potted plants for June blooming. These will be 
at an increase of 15 cents per plant. 
HYBRID TEA OR EVER-BLOOMING ROSES 
These will give an abundance of bloom from June un¬ 
til frost. They should be liberally fertilized every year 
and given some protection from the sun and frost during 
the winter.
