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 
demand good drainage, both surface 
and underground. Since they are 
found growing well in clayey, black 
land, and sandy soil, it can hardly 
be said that they prefer any particu- 
lar kind of soil, except that it must 
be loose and have good drainage.

HINTS ON ROSE CULTURE 
PLANTING—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. Fertilizer should not be put too close to plants. Let the feeder 
roots feed to the fertilizer.

CARE OF ROSES—Roses should not be pruned before February 20th in our section. 
We do not recommend too severe pruning. All dead wood should be removed and 
limbs cut back to within one foot of the ground. To prevent mildew and black spot 
on the leaves, we recommend dusting your roses with copper sulphur within twenty- 
four hours after each rain during growing season. Keep your ground well mulched, 
but avoid spading too deep around the roots. In watering roses, do not spray them, 
but let the water run on the ground. 
OUR ROSES are two year old, field grown, budded on Rosa Multiflora Japonica under- 
stock. So when you buy roses from McCLUNG, you can rest assured 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 mean that plants so 
described have been in the field two years and might have one cane or a half a 
dozen, a good root system or no roots at all. Do not be deceived by these adver- 
tising tactics. Our roses are graded—l, 1%, and 2—See prices on the next page. 
WE ESPECIALLY INVITE inquiries from Garden Clubs, Home Demonstration Clubs, 
and Civic Organizations for special prices on co-operative buying.
