ROSES 
The rose is unsurpassed as a garden flower, due to its enchant¬ 
ing colors, delightful fragrance, and continuous blooming season. 
Little wonder the rose is our most popular cut flower. By con¬ 
stant selection and hybridizing, the quality of our modem roses 
is vastly superior to those of the past generation. 
The beginner with roses will find soon enough that his plants 
will not thrive with neglect. To succeed with roses, one must 
water and feed judiciously. Cultivate thoroughly and be ever 
on guard against its worst enemies—insects and disease. Black 
spot and mildew may be controlled by dusting or spraying at 
regular intervals throughout the season. Most of the fungicides 
in use today may be combined with a compatible insecticide, 
thus making an “all-around spray.” There are available a 
number of ready-mixed dusts and sprays for those who do not 
wish to be troubled with mixing their own. Having adopted 
an adequate program, the gardener can assure himself of gratify¬ 
ing results if his plan is followed religiously. We do not mean 
to discourage those who contemplate growing roses, but we do 
wish to emphasize the importance of constant care.
