ROSES 
Roses—the mere name is an inspiration to garden lovers. Nothing can take the place of the Rose. In 
order that you may have success in growing these beautiful plants, we offer a few cultural suggestions. 
They thrive best in a garden where the morning sun reaches them. It is well to excavate the ground to 
a depth of from 1 to 2 feet; place a layer of cow manure on the bottom and fill with good top soil. All 
roses should be planted so the place where they are grafted or budded is 2 or 3 inches below the surface. 
Tramp in firmly and water well; keep the soil around the roses well cultivated and clean. Roses can be 
protected in winter by mounding up the dirt around them and covering the ground with straw or litter 
to prevent alternate freezing and thawing.
