lS[ew Patented lS[pvelty looses 
The Government has recently allowed plant-growers to secure patents on Roses 
and other nursery stock, seeds, etc., originated by that grower. He who has bred 
new plants or varieties is certainly entitled to protection for his years of effort and 
possible service to mankind. He may then grant others the right to produce or 
sell this variety, upon payment of suitable royalty, etc. 
We now offer six choice patented varieties of Novelty Roses. These Roses 
cannot be secured everywhere, but wherever sold the prices are uniformly the 
same. You may, therefore, have “something different” in your Rose-garden, and 
perhaps have some exclusive varieties for exhibition purposes.
