ROSES 
Roses thrive best in rather heavy, moist soil, 
and require good and frequent watering m the 
summer. After the first year, plenty of manure 
should be used on, or near the surface, not about 
the roots. Prune heavily every year, keeping the 
old wood cut out, and shortening what is left. 
The surest road to success is to copy your neigh¬ 
bor, whose rose garden speaks for itself. We 
offer strong bushes of the following list of over 
100 varieties which are generally the most satis¬ 
factory. Unless otherwise noted the price is 2oc 
ea $2.00 per 10, or our selection of not less than 
25 varieties, $15.00 per 100; a mighty good way 
to get a rose garden. 
Varieties arranged according to color; climoeis 
in separate list. This makes it much easier to 
select the kinds wanted. 
N 0te ; _Our roses are mostly on their own 
roots, so there will be no future trouble with 
suckers.
