Still Another Joy 
of Owning Your Own Greenhouse 
Suppose it’s a death—or an ill friend—a birth or 
death. 
What can say for you, what you want to say 
quite as well as the sending of some flowers? 
How easy then it would be if you could step into 
your own Glass Garden and pick just the flowers 
you want to send. 
Pick them regardless of the season or weather. 
When you have your own, you have additional 
joys from flowers that you little thought possible. 
Leastwise, that is what those say who own their 
own greenhouse. 
With our standardized method of making such 
houses, owning them is greatly simplified. Their 
cost is correspondingly attractive. Send for special 
circulars on the Standard House.

Do You Love Roses? 
“Rose Gardening cultivates the taste, pro¬ 
motes acquaintance with refined people, and 
is favorable to health. It furnishes moderate 
outdoor exercise; it calms and quiets the nerves.” 
The Rose Society Indites You to Membership 
Organized in 1899 “to improve the excellence of the rose, and 
increase interest in its cultivation," this fellowship of rose fan¬ 
ciers now numbers nearly three thousand. The Society syndi¬ 
cates the information and enthusiasm of all who love the rose and 
makes it available to all the members, and to others who wish to 
learn how to grow roses. By bulletins, exhibitions, lectures and 
an annual Rose book, it interprets all that is helpful and interest¬ 
ing in rose knowledge. 
The American Rose Annual, edited by J. Horace McFarland, but 
written by the Society’s widespread membership, and reflect¬ 
ing rose experiences all over America, is issued in March each
