PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING 
Shipments Made December Ist to April 15th—Plants are seldom 
ripened or dormant enough to ship before December Ist. Most of 
the patent varieties are not released to us before December 15th. 
It is not practical or advisable to ship later than April 15th. 
Those living in regions with late spring should place their order 
early. Plants will be reserved and held dormant as long as pos- 
sible and then shipped to be held longer in cooler climate if 
necessary before planting. 
Genuineness and Guarantee—The greatest care and precaution 
is exercised to keep all varieties true to name and we do not sub 
stitute unless authorized to do so, and then under true labels only. 
Any plants proving otherwise will be replaced free of charge; but 
it is mutually agreed and understood that we will not be held 
liable for any greater amount than the purchase price of the plants 
involved. 
Plants should be examined immediately upon arrival and if not 
in good condition they should be returned immediately. If accepted 
they should be set in a pail or tub of water over night (not longer), 
after which they may be planted out or just heeled in until ready 
to plant. Any plants failing to grow will be replaced at one-half 
purchase price. 
Special Discount for large orders. A discount of 10% is offered 
on orders of fifty roses or more. 15% discount on orders of 100 
or more. Patent varieties excepted. Many will be able to take 
advantage of this saving by ordering with friends. 
All prices subject to change without notice. 
No. C.O.D. shipments. Please send cash, check or post office 
money order. 
IT IS BEST to name second choice roses, when ordering. We do 
not substitute unless authorized to do so, and then under true name 
only, Some varieties are sure to sell out before others, and by 
naming second choice your planting plan has better chance of 
working out on schedule.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Few plants respond so readily to good care and culture as the 
rose. But few will survive under more adverse conditions. Or, 
though your bushes may grow, do not expect best results unless 
you would give them thought and care throughout the year. Our 
plants are packed well in damp moss to arrive in perfect condition 
for immediate planting. If not planted immediately the roots should 
be kept moist and stored in a cool place until planted. 
Select a place that has not less than one-half the day's sun, more 
or full sun is better. Dig the soil to a good depth to know that the 
plant will have good root room and that a layer of hard pan or 
tight earth does not exist just below the plant to hold water and 
injure the plants during the winter months. Enrich the soil with 
well rotted cow manure and sand if necessary to create a friable 
condition. Some clay in the soil is desirable for its mineral content, 
provided enough sand or humus are added to make the soil work- 
able. 
Dig large holes, spaced at least 18-24 inches apart. Spread out 
the roots and fill in with loose earth. Run water in the holes while 
filling in to bring the soil in better and closer contact to the roots. 
Cut back tops to about 6 or 8 inches. Do not plant too deep. Plant 
only to the depth the plant originally grew. 
During the growing season the plants should be fed with a good 
complete commercial fertilizer worked into the top soil around the 
plants. Small quantities monthly are best. First application for new 
plants should not be used until plants are in full and strong leaf 
and then only in very small amounts. 
Spray the plants regularly. Dry sulphur, containing about one- 
fifth arsenate of lead, to keep down the mildew. A nicotine or 
pyrethrum spray for aphis on the young shoots. Or if you prefer 
an all-around spray, we have found Triogen to give excellent re- 
sults where it is used regularly about every ten days. 
Space does not permit more detailed instructions and only a gen- 
eral outline is intended. Your interest and good judgment are after 
all the most important factors and will pay you a thousand-fold for 
your every effort.
