F ROM Easter frosts 
and a tardy spring we 
almost leap into the 
lap of June. Are your 
roses ready? Have they been 
well nourished, well cultivated 
and every vestige of dead leaf 
or branch cleanly clipped off 
and removed ? Good! Then 
you’ve made the right start. 
Would you know how to find 
great pleasure in your Roses? 
Learn to share them. Every¬ 
one likes roses. You will have 
doubled their value when you 
double the number of people 
who enj oy them. So invite your 
friends to see your Roses or 
take your Roses to them, so 
they may feed upon the peace 
and sweetness to be found in 
these divine gifts of Nature. 
Who else in your bailiwick 
grows Roses—so you can com¬ 
pare notes. One way to find 
out is to join the American 
Rose Society, 606 Finance 
Building, Philadelphia, Pa., 
and get their list of 3000 mem¬ 
bers geographically arranged. 
If you find ten people near 
enough why not get up a little 
Rose Show? The American 
Rose Society Secretary will 
tell you how. 
Another American Rose So¬ 
ciety treat will be the Rose 
Pilgrimages in June—Wash¬ 
ington, D. C.; Syracuse, N. Y.; 
Hartford, Conn.; Boston, 
Mass.; Minneapolis, Minn.; 
Portland, Ore.; and Seattle, 
Wash. 
But after all, what can 
surpass your own Roses about 
your own home ? Mildew and 
Black Spot can be prevented 
if you start first. Every week 
or two apply “All-In-One” 
with intelligence and keep your 
Roses in full foliage—that’s 
half the joy. 
If you buy COXARD Roses, success will 
be easier—they're yuaranteed to bloom. 
Each rose bears a durable, celluloid 
star tag to identify the variety in 
your garden. No other roses have 
this feature.
