producing its blossoms freely. There is fascinating rich 
fragrance. $1.00. 
Shirley Temple. This new Rose is a dainty light yellow

cutting as well as a good grower. This is the Rose that 
was named through a national naming contest con- 
ducted by us. 35 petals. $1.25. 
Signora. Plant Patent 201. A real masterpiece. The long

form are great in the late Summer and Fall. Lacks 
fragrance. 44 petals. $1.00.

petals. $1.00. 
Stargold. Plant Patent 248. I like this new variety.

strong grower. 32 petals. $1.25.

QUALITY ROSES 
The desire for quality is inbred in most Americans. No 
matter what price class we’re in, instinctively we want the 
none refrigerator, the well-made car and the finest 
oses. 
As Benjamin Franklin said: ‘‘You get nothing for 
nothing and mighty little for ha-penny.” 
A man knows honest quality is worth a dozen ‘‘almost”’ 
all wool, ‘‘almost”’ full-weight, or ‘‘almost as good” Roses. 
It’s human nature to detour now and then—to get off 
the main line and wander down the unmarked and devious 
trail of price-cuts and ‘‘just-as-good” substitutes. But 
we always get back on the road which goes where we 
want to go, marked with the signs we understand—the 
good safe road to quality—W YANT ROSES.
