There is something enticing about the scent 
of a rose that just cannot be forgotten; the 
soft pungent sweetness consoles and soothes 
the roughest nature and it was fittingly de¬ 
creed when the rose was chosen as the univer¬ 
sal flower. The only regret is that there is but 
a short list that can stand the chill of our 
winters. 
Roses like good soil conditions but cannot 
stand fresh fertilizers around the roots. Trim 
out old stocks every spring after the bush com¬ 
mences to leaf out.

of the stem and which make a brilliant display. The

striking effect. Each, 50c.
