ROSES 
All plants offered are two-year field-grown bushes. Cut back the top so 
only two or three of the stronger canes are left six inches long, and plant 
a little deeper than they grew, in well drained rich soil. Sun until about 
2:00 P.M., then shade, is the ideal exposure. 
QUANTITY PRICES. Almost as much work and expense is used in 
filling and packing an order for one bush as several, so we can give cheaper 
rates on larger quantities, except the patented varieties. 
On orders for 5 to 12 plants deduct.5c per plant. 
On orders for 12 or more plants deduct.10c per plant
