CARE OF ROSES 
PLANTING. It should be borne in mind that roses will do much better 
in well-drained clay soil with plenty of sun. The plants should be set 
out as soon as received. The rose beds should be so planned that they 
will be at least three feet wide, but never more than six feet in width. 
Holes to receive plants should be dug at least fifteen inches deep and 
equally as wide, so that the roots may be spread easily. Well-seasoned 
cow manure and a little bone meal may be incorporated with the soil. 
Fill in earth and pack firmly so as to leave no air pockets. The juncture 
of the root stock and stems should be just beneath the surface. Newly- 
planted roses should be well watered. We recommend placing Hybrid 
Tea Rose bushes eighteen inches apart. A little crowding makes for 
longer and straighter stems. 
PRUNING. For best results the Hybrid Teas should be cut back to about 
six or eight inches, leaving an outside bud at the top of the cane. 
Climbing roses bloom on canes of the previous season’s growth, hence 
the old wood should be cut out each year. 
WINTER PROTECTION. In late fall or early winter, earth should be 
heaped over the crowns to a depth of at least ten inches. If available, 
cow manure should be placed around the mounds. This hilling up 
process will protect the bushes against the drying action of winter 
winds, frost, and sun. 
About the last week in March the winter covering should be removed, 
fertilizer applied and the bed raked off smooth. 
SUMMER CARE. A top dressing of peat moss not only gives the rose 
bed ‘a neat appearance, but causes better growth by conserving moisture 
and keeping down weeds. If no mulch is used, keep the top soil 
pulverized with a sharp rake. After every rain, the crust should be 
broken up as soon as the ground is mellow enough to work. 
Insects and disease will inevitably do much damage unless preventative 
measures are taken. Dust thoroughly once a week with Derris dust or 
spray with a combination of Brodeaux Mixture and Arsenate of Lead. 
Where plant lice appear, spray thoroughly with EXTRAX or TRI-O—GEN.
