OFFICIAL WARNING ISSUED 
The official News Bulletin of the Pennsylvania 
Department of Agriculture has this to say: “Per¬ 
haps the greatest source of disappointment in plant¬ 
ing of home grounds comes through the purchase of 
bargain roses and other small shrubbery. Most of 
these cheap roses are spent stock which has been 
discarded by greenhouse men in order to make way 
for young vigorous plants. In other words, these 
spent plants have served their period of usefulness 
as bench roses and therefore cannot be expected to 
produce satisfactory results when planted in the 
open. In addition they invariably reach the buyer 
in a very dried out condition and verv' often will 
not respond to the best of treatment.”
