White Wings. P.A.F. A Krebs creation. First enthusiastically admired 
in the garden of rose-hybridists, Carl and Rowena Duehrsen, Montebello, to which 
we are frequent visitors. When they say a rose is good, its GOOD! Hailed as the 
white counterpart of the lovely and favorite pink Dainty Bess, but to us, appears a 
more profuse and constant bloomer.: If you are not delighted with this one, we hand 
you back—to the “Indians.” 1.50 
World’s Fair. (Minna Kordes.) Patent 362. Immediately we page Dr. 
Gage! Says he, breaking a long, reflective silence, as he surveys his highly polished 
and meticulously selected 170 rose varieties—‘Mister, if I had to get along without 
all these roses, save one, do yuh know the one I’d keep? (discreet silence by “‘mister”’) 
—World’s Fair!— !” And I look over at those lush plants, with their clusters of 
velvety, rich, dark-crimson blooms—and . . . don’t argue with him—it’s no use 
anyway. SO-we appoint Dr. Gage our ambassadot extraordinaire for World’s Fair.

NOTE—While the cost of growing polyanthas and floribundas is as great as any 
other rose variety, we are always willing to share the economies of handling large 
orders, and invite price correspondence with any who contemplate extensive planting.

... 1, for one, love them too well not to desire more and yet more, and 
again more. New or old, Summer-flowering or perpetual, Tea, Noi- 
sette, Rambler, Ayrshire, Cherokee or Bramble-leaved from North 
America, Wichuriana from Japan, Sinica from Tartary, Brunonis 
from the Himalayas, or the last new Hybrid, all are thrice welcome 
wherever wall, bank, fence, arch, pillar, dead or living tree can be 
found for them.” —Roset G. KINGSLEY 
CfJillar Roses 
I have heard unthinking people insist they have no room for 
climbing roses; yet, trained as pillars, climbing roses do not require 
more space than Hybrid Perpetuals. They could be placed three 
feet apart in the middle of Hybrid Tea beds or in the perennial 
border. —TuHeE RosE Manuat, Dr. J. M. Nicovas, 1934 
“Pillar Roses, some rising singly here and there, like the proud 
standards of victorious troops, some meeting in graceful conjunction, 
saluting each other like our forefathers and foremothers in the stately 
minuet—bowing themselves like tall and supple cavaliers, into arches 
of courtesy, with keystones of cocked hats. In both stages these Pillar 
Roses are beautiful additions to the Rose Garden.” —Dean Hote, 1869
