A PROPULSION OF ROSES
Grants Pass Rose Gardens Have
Album da nee Of Flowers

"Such roses cost 81, 80 per dozen
where l came from. Such was the
remark of Minneapolis man as he
admired bouquet of some Of our
roses last week. Not only was no
well inside the truth, but in many
places such roses as Grants Pass gar.
dens are now showing, are not to be
found even in hothouses
The past season has been very favor
able for roses, and the blossoms never
were finer. 1t is constant marvel to
eastern people how we can raise such
beautiful roses outdoors The secret
is in our mild winter aud the large
amount of spring sunshine.
Anybody can have roses in profusion
in Grants Pass with very little
trouble. They are easily propagated
from cuttings, and ON account of our
long season, make as much growth in
one year as the ordinary rose which is
sold for a two year old. There is
hardly 4 catalogued variety which
will not give good results with us.
This spring all Of the gardens which
have Beauty of Glazenwood" bushes
are mass of salmon and orange color,
the blossoms almost hiding the bush.
Marechal Mel was also at its best and
one, -year.old bush set out last
spring produced at least 50 large per-
feet flowers. a walk along our resi-
dence streets will show a profusion OF
bloom, not often seen, and such varie.
ties as the La France family, Bride.
Duchess dc Brabans, Paul Neyron,
Etoile de Lyon, Catherine Mermet,
Gloire de Dyon, Marie Henriette,
Gen'l Jacqueminot, will be seen in all
their glory. Paul Neyron often at.
tains size of seven inches across,
and is constant bloomer
Roses begin to bloom about May !,
and last till December !, although it
is not an exception to pick pretty buds
in December. 1t is difficult to say
whether the spring or fall roses are
the finest, as the latter blossoms have
beauty of fragrance and coloring
peculiarly their own.
Oregon is rose state, but we doubt
if any part Of it can show finer roses
than those which may now be enjoyed
by everyone.
