BEAN STRAW 
—for Better Color and Stronger Stems 
We can now supply bean straw both in the bale and 
ground for mulching. To our knowledge there is nothing 
better for use in Rose Beds. The bales are coarse heavy 
fiber suitable for use in the bottom of the hole when plant¬ 
ing. The ground or chopped straw is cut to one inch or 
less in length and sent out in huge beet pulp sacks holding 
nearly a bale.

TEXAS CENTENNIAL. Patent No. 162. A worthwhile sport 
of the rose. Pres. Herbert Hoover, differing only in color— 
blood-red, toning to cerise-red in the center of the flower. 
This rose has increased in popularity by leaps and bounds 
the past two years and we are very enthusiastic about it, 
recommending it almost everywhere. Do not fail to give 
it a trial. 75 cts. each. 
VICTORIA HARRINGTON. We believe this novelty to be the 
finest of all red Roses. Pointed buds of blackish red slowly 
open to finely formed flowers of non-fading velvety dark 
red, warmed with a golden flush in the heart of the flower. 
As the bud opens, the petals form distinct triangles, and as 
the bloom matures they reflex until the fully open flower 
resembles a cactus dahlia. The rich red color holds until 
the petals fall; instead of fading with age, the golden luster 
in the heart of the flower increases and suggests a warm 
brownish red instead of the blue tint of most red Roses. It 
has intense spicy fragrance. The strong plants are free 
and constant producers of specimen blooms under all 
weather conditions. Our opinion of this Rose is confirmed 
by country-wide reports which commend it for production of 
specimen blooms in both heat and cold. $1.00 each. 
Salmon-Pink 
COUNTESS VANDAL. Patent No. 38. Exquisite flowers of 
flame-pink and salmon with bronzy shades—two-tone effect. 
Form resembles Los Angeles. $1.00 each. 
EDITH NELLIE PERKINS. Beautifully shaped buds and double 
flowers with daintily quilled petals of soft salmon-pink on 
the inner surface and deep coppery rose on the reverse, 
all richly flushed with orange and red. 50 cts. each. 
LOS ANGELES. One of the loveliest Roses ever produced— 
unfading luminous coral-pink, toned with copper and shaded 
with gold. One of California's children which does excep¬ 
tionally well in its home state. A prolific producer of de¬ 
liciously fragrant flowers. Heavy pruning is disastrous to 
this variety. 50 cts. each. 
MME. BUTTERFLY. An Ophelia sport—a marked improve¬ 
ment. Fine light pink buds and flowers of exquisite shape, 
tinted with gold near base of petals. Richly perfumed. 
Greenhouse foliage grown out-of-doors; very few thorns. 
50 cts. each.
