ROSES (Continued) 
bush is afforded plenty of nourishment and cultivation 
made easy. They should be planted fairly deep in the 
ground so that the earth level is at least 2 inches above 
where the branches first start out from the main trunk 
of the root system. 
Roses will generally grow better and produce more 
and better blooms in soil that is partly of a clayey 
nature that is made rich with manure. 
We list here a limited list only that are recognized 
by rose lovers as desirable both as to blooms and growth, 
but can supply others and the newer varieties from the 
introducers at a pleasing price.

CLIMBERS (Ramblers) 
Climbing Roses require no pruning in the spring be¬ 
yond the cutting out of very old or dead wood, and 
the shortening of the laterals and long canes to make 
the growth conform to the space to be covered; but a 
severe pruning in July, directly after they have fin¬ 
ished flowering, is beneficial. Cutting away at that 
time all old .flowering wood will encourage a vigorous 
growth, which will give an abundance of flowers the 
following season. 
AMERICAN PILLAR. A beautiful single flower¬ 
ing brilliant pink with white eye. Price: 2 year 
No. 1, 60c each. 
American Pillar is the outstanding Hybrid 
Wichuriana, being the most vigorous grower of 
the whole bunch, and blooming profusely appar¬ 
ently under all conditions. So far as we have 
seen them, the individual flowers are larger than 
any in this group, and they come in tremendous 
clusters. With its crimson petals, white centers 
and golden-yellow stamens, it is beautiful beyond 
comparison, and grows steadily in popular favor.

son. Price: 40c.
