FOR YOUR BENEFIT 
The best $3.50 that you can invest is in membership in 
the American Hose Society. I would sooner see you buy 
that many less roses. I know the pleasure you would 
get out of the Rose Magazine that comes six times a year 
plus “The American Rose Annual.” It is all new each year, 
and all alive. It studies rose interests, relations, troubles, 
pleasures, advantages, through entirely fresh articles. 
Presents originator’s descriptions of the new roses of all 
the world. Its “Proof of the Pudding” presents terse, 
frank, accurate details of the new roses as they have be¬ 
haved from Maine to California, from the Gulf to Can¬ 
ada each year. A California member writes: “Saved me 
many times my membership fee in purchases of new 
roses.” 
Is handsomely illustrated and issued in February or 
March. Published at $3.50, it is free to you as a member. 
Also you get “What Every Rose - Grower Should 
Know,” telling in its 80 illustrated pages all that a be¬ 
ginner needs to know in order to safely start the cultiva¬ 
tion of the rose. 
And Your Membership Card, admitting members with¬ 
out charge to rose shows in which this Society partici¬ 
pates, and serving as an introduction to rose-gardens and 
members in all parts of the world. 
You may either send your application to 
AMERICAN ROSE SOCIETY 
Box 687, Harrisburg, Pa. 
or to me and I will gladly take care of it.
