ROSES 
& Every home, regardless of 
size, should have some roses, 
not only for their beauty in 
the garden, but for cut flowers 
for the house. Roses will grow 
in almost any soil. They de- 
mand good drainage, both sur- 

face and underground. Since 
they are found growing well in 
clayey, black land, and sandy 
soil, it can hardly be said that 
they prefer any particular kind 
of soil, except that it must be 
loose and have good drainage. 
ROSE BEDS should be prepared in advance, all grass and 
weeds removed, dirt well spaded. As a general rule we do not 
recommend that fertilizer be added until after planting. Ferti- 
lizer should not be put too close to plants. Let the feeder roots 
feed to the fertilizer. 
OUR ROSES are two years old, field 
grown, budded on Rosa Multiflora 
Japonica understock. So when you 
buy roses from us you can rest as- 
sured that you are buying the very 
best that are to be had. 
Buy roses by grade. The words 
“two year old field grown” have no 
descriptive meaning as to the grade 
plant that you are to get, but simply
