Joanna Hill. 
Culture. —Roses thrive best in clay loam 
soil. They should also have an open airy situ¬ 
ation, unshaded by trees or buildings wherever 
possible. To get the best results from Roses 
dig up the soil thoroughly from a depth of 
12-15 inches, and mix the soil with a good com- 
poste. Always plant in solid beds, and each 
class by itself. Roses may be planted in either 
the fall or the spring. All Roses should be cut 
back closely at the time of planting. 
Our Roses are all dipped in parapin wax, and 
will withstand dry, atmospheric conditions much 
longer than stocks that have not been dipped. 
They will also withstand frost when planted out 
very early in the season, nor will the drying 
winds which are so frequent during the spring 
of the year have any effect on wax-dipped Roses, 
though Roses which have not been thus pro¬ 
tected are bound to suffer severely from such 
drying winds.
