Black-spot appears as rather irregular dark areas on the leaves. These turn yellow and drop off. 
Powdery mildew is a white powdery growth which aj^pears on the young leaves and shoots. If it 
can be had, the best spray is potassium sulphide, i ounce to 2 gallons of water. If this is not to be 
had, use bordeaux mixture or one of the prejiared Bordeaux comi)ounds. Sj^ray at intervals of a week 
or ten days until the disease is checked. Many varieties are not affected at all. 
Roses on Cherokee Stocks 
^ There has been a general demand for Roses that can be successfully grown on the poorer types of 
soils. For a number of years we experimented with different stocks and finally came to the con¬ 
clusion that Cherokee Rose stock of a certain type was the best to use. For several seasons we have 
offered these to our customers, and the bushes have been an unciualified success. Roses on this stock 
are difficult to propagate, and we grow only a limited number of the list which follows. Other sorts 
cannot be supplied.
