A Few Practical Rose Suggestions 
It is always a pleasure to assist with the selec¬ 
tion and arrangement of varieties whenever a 
Rose-garden is being planned. A good idea is to 
send in a rough design showing the proposed 
dimensions of the beds or the space available, and 
we can then suggest a planting-list to show spac¬

Rose arises. In other words, Roses always look 
better and do much better when planted closer— 
14 to 16 inches apart—in groups of at least three 
to five of each variety seleeted.

YOUR ROSES HEALTHY

Pomo-Green is not for Roses alone, but 
for the entire garden. It is a reliable

Sprayer and Chemical Company. We 
have used their products for many years 
on our plantings and have found them 
most effective in preventing fungous dis¬ 
eases and killing insects. Directions for 
use are printed on every container. Pomo- 
Green, with or without Nicotine, gives 
us better results when used as a dust.
