New Dawn (Plant Patent 1). The most nearly ever- 
blooming of all the climbing Roses. It is the ever- 
blooming form of Dr. Van Fleet. The large soft 
pink flowers appear almost continuously during 
the Spring, Summer and Fall. $1.25. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. All who see its numerous, 
well-formed, glistening scarlet flowers are imme- 
diately thrilled by it. A strong, hardy, upright 
grower. Mid-Spring. 80c. 
Reveil Dijonnais. For those who want a different 
Climber and one that is exceptionally charming. 
The geranium red on the outer half of the petal 
is enhanced by the yellow towards the center. 
The large open blossom is further set off by 
fluffy golden stamens. Not real hardy and in 
this climate it is worth protecting because of 
being so unusual. $1.00. 
TREE ROSES 
When Tree Roses are planted at appropriate 
spots in your garden they give it an accent and at- 
mosphere of distinction. Their strong, 314-foot 
stems and good big tops which seem to bloom more 
and better than the bush Roses make a great sight 
throughout the season. 

For Winter protection their roots should be loos- 
ened on one side so they can be laid down and 
covered over with soil. 
$3.00 each, 6 for $16.50, 12 for $30.00

simple planting directions accompany- 
ing each order, even if you have planted

We have endeavored to give you true descriptions of our Roses as we know 
them and if there is any further information you need just let us know. 

Winter Sterilization of Rose Bed 
Dr. Massey of Cornell University who is the lead- 
ing authority on Rose diseases in this country, states 
that there is no scientific evidence to show that dor- 
mant spraying is worth while but in my own garden 
I spray with lime-sulphur, dormant strength and I 
find that black-spot is much easier to prevent than it 
used to be before I used a dormant spray. In the 
early Winter before I give the Roses their Winter 
protection, I spray the plants and the ground around 
them, even the grass paths between the beds. 
Then I repeat in the Spring after the protection is 
removed. I find it better to apply it with a sprin- 
kling can instead of a sprayer and use about 1 pound 
to 4 gallons of water. Lime-sulphur is very toxic to 
diseases and kills the disease spores on Jeaves that 
are still on the plants and those which have dropped 
to the ground. Bordeaux would do a little good but 
nothing compared with lime-sulphur. I can supply 
lime-sulphur at 40c. per 1-pound can, or an 8-pound 
sack for $1.25.
