Really Good Roses 
For the past two years the market has been flooded with junk roses. Cheap, tender, 
poorly grown plants from the south; worn out plants discarded from the benches of the 
wholesale cut-flower growers could be had at anything you pleased from 5c a plant up. 
Conditions were such that price seemed to be the only consideration and we did not feel that 
first class plants could be sold in competition. Consequently, since with us it is first class 
stock or nothing, we have not offered roses for sale for two years. 
Now that conditions have changed for the better and the end of the depression is obvi¬ 
ously in sight, it seems probable that' most people who want roses will be thoroughly sick of 
planting junk stock and in order to take care of those who know a good rose plant when they 
see it, we have provided a small stock of roses for this spring’s business. (Even last year 
we received special orders for several thousand good roses!) Because of the fact that we do 
not intend to take any more risks than we have to, the stock is not 25% of what was necessary 
even three years ago. The plants are strictly two years old, No. 1 grade, the best obtainable, 
and are priced 25% less than they should be or will be next year. 
Since conditions are changing so rapidly we must play safe. 
This offer is positively withdrawn April 10th.
