June and usually in large numbers.
The eggs are laid in the soil, generally
in light or sandy land; they are not
often troublesome in heavy soil.
Paris green and other pOisons do not
have much effect upon them. Arsenate
of lead. when used in strong solutions
1.-TWO and a half ounces to gallon) &,
will keep them quite well in check,
but this material discolors the foliage.
In the early morning, when the bugs
are somewhat dormant, they may be
picked off by hand, or knocked into a
pan Of kerosene held underneath the
branches. This is a most difficult pest
to control. 1t will also attack GRAPES
and other fruits.
The rose slug is the larva of the saw
fly. which comes out of the ground in
May. The female deposits eggs in cuts
made in tie leaves. The eggs hatch
in about twelve days after they are
laid.
They are a soft-bodied insect similar
to the snail, and may be readily de-
stroyed by busting with hellebore or
by the whale oil soap spray. They soon
seriously injure the foliage if not kept
in check.
Another very troublesome insect and
enemy of the rose is the rose hopper or
thrips. These are small, white flies
that come in swarms, and they work
mainly on the under side of the leaves.
The Breckenridge news., 1906-05-09

Of great value in getting the finest
blooms and the longest bud develop
ment. Good wood dirt is excellent.
Fine, strong plants, set while entire
ly dormant, should give satisfactory
quantity of flowers the first summer.
In planting, the tops should be cut
down to two or three buds.
Many fail at this point to prune close
enough. On we'll grown plants there
is usually too much wood left. The de-
sire to obtain blossoms the first sum-
mer is so great that frequently the en-
tire top is left to grow. which is too
much for the root to support.
The reverse should be done, for by
close pruning the few buds left will
develop into strong, vigorous shoots
that will produce buds, and only by
this practice can they be surely OBJ
tanned.
A good general rule to follow in
pruning is to cut severely all teas, hy-
brid teas and kinds that do not make
strong growth, and to cut all strong
growing kinds moderately. The more
luxuriant a bush grows the less prun-
ing will be required, but the weakest
growing kinds require the severest
pruning.
While florists have their own way of
propagating roses, amateurs usually
get start of everblooming roses either
from cuttings of the blooming wood,
or from cuttings of mature wood rooted
during winter while in semi-dormant

Roses must have good air and plent

Roses must have good air and plenty
of it, without being too much exposed (;
hence an elevated situation is better
than one that is lower or stagnant.
They should not, however, be exposed
to too violent winds, for the foliage
cannot stand whipping.
Sometimes the protection Of a clump
of trees is sought, but unless the plants
are set well away from them they will
be robbed If plant food by the roots of
the tre45. To take advantage Of this
kind of protection the roses should be
set twenty-five feet further away from
the trees than the latter's height.
The protection of buildings should
be avoided, for so completely do these
stop the circulation of air that mildew
and blights follow from sheltered loca-
tions of this character. There are,
however, exceptions to this rule, for
sometimes in an elevated position
there will be suitable circulation Of
air even close to a building. This de-
pends largely upon the prevailing
winds and the exposure of the locality.

Roses-queens Of the American
flower garden!
The Increasing tendency Of people
to patronize the rural sections, and the
steadily increasing love for flowers
with the impulse to cultivate the small
garden found in the city and the rural
homes brings into prominence the
flower of kings and of favOrites-and
OF the humbest menial-the rose.
II is astonishing what varied types
in nature there are of this flower, and
how worldwide is its distribution
Wild roses are found from frigid Lap
land to tropic India. The rose has
the honor of being the first cultivated
flower. For a long time 1t was a rare
possession, but with the general and
active love of nature that is a marked
characteristic of the present times
much his been learned about the cul-
ture of flowers in general, and of the
rose in particular, and its special re-
Quirements are better understood.
While verandas and trellises or
country homes may have their honey
suckles, and lilacs may bloom in
abundance, nothing eXcels in beauty
or fragrance the climbing roses when
in their gorgeous and glorious bloom.
There is no flower beset with more
difficulties to grow, yet its cultivation
is increasing. The harder it is to pro-
duce a beautiful thing the more highly
II is priced.

Most Important Groups.

Roses Of to-day are of complex line
age, for old and new species have been
crossed and recrossed until now our
cultivated roses are divided into more
than thirty general groups. The most
important of these are: Moss, Rugosa,
Hybrid Teas. Persian roses and a few
June roses among the stiff, upright
growing sorts of medium to tall
growth; Polyanthus, upright but
dwarf. and Teas, of low or half re-
cumbent habit The latter, by some
classifiers, are again sub-divided into
China, Bourbon, etc, of which classes
the teas and hybrid teas are the most
beautiful. They bloom longer than
other types. hence they have been
most widely grown.
For colder climates the hybrid per-
petuals are a most valuable class, be-
ing generally harder and larger
bloomers, though they do not bloom so
The Breckenridge news., 1906-05-09

The hot MONDAY sun Is very hard
upon the blossoms, and if the rose bed
could be so located as to get a shadow
cast from a clump of trees for two
hours after noon such a location would
be ideal.
The greatest pleasure to be derived
from flowers is to have them for the
freest possible use and TO give to
friends and others who may otherwise
not be able to have them.
The soil needs to be well suited and
properly prepared. For hybrid per-
petuals a heavy soil is better, one that
has some portion of clay in its COM
position. The rose requires for its best
development a cool, moist soil, and for
this reason the heavier type is better,
carrying as it does a large amount of
moisture. and being also a little lower
in temperature.
The Breckenridge news., 1906-05-09

They will fly off when you are attempt
ing to treat them.
The white grub is another parasite
upon roses, the list of which rs becom-
ing somewhat formidable. This grub
comes from eggs deposited in the
ground by the June bug or May beetle.
After pairing, the male dies, when
the female bores down in the soil, de-
posting her eggs from six to eight
inches deep. The small white grubs
which are hatched from these live upon
the grass roots or the roots of other
plants.
In making up the soil for the rose
bed sods frequently put in the bottom
to decompose have these grubs in
them, and as they live in the grub form
for three years, they frequently eat the
roots of the roses, causing them to
wither and often to die. On the first
discovery of a whiting plant the soil
should be dug over to find the grubs.
- Toads Are Friends.
There are no better friends to have
in the garden than the toads. If they
could be protected and encouraged TO
live there they would eradicate many
of the grubs and cutworms that do so
much damage to garden plants.
The great enemy of the toad is the
small boy. Bands Of schoolboys have
been known to go out, and in single
day, kill as many as 300 of these use
full animals The boys regard this as
innocent sport, being untaught and not
knowing that the toad is a most valua-
BILE insect destroyer.
To the lovers of the rose, these diff
ficulties in its culture, great as they
are, are not altogether too discourag-
ing. They rather incite to greater
energy and determination to overcome
them, knowing that eternal vigilance
is the price to be paid to win and to
enjoy this queen and most beautiful of
all flowers.
The Breckenridge news., 1906-05-09

are quite apt to throw out shoots from
their own roots which are vigorous
and soon overcome and run out the
bud. They may be readily discerned
when they do come out, for their leaves
and wood are of a different character
from that of the bud, the wood being
covered with fine. prickly spines and
the leaves being seven in number of
three serrations instead of five, as in
most of the budded kinds.
Budded roses should be planted deep
so that the bud is at least three inches
below the surface of the soil. when
there will be less trouble from the
suckers. The roots should be examined,
and any eyes or buds that are starting
upon them should be carefully taken

How to Kill the Aphis.

This will he discovered on the tips
of the bushes and also upon the buds
and about their stems. The insects
suck the sap from these tender parts
and greatly check the growth and de-
velopment of the buds. busting with
hellebore will keep them in check. or
they may be SPRAYED with one pound Of
caustic potash whale oil soap dis
solved in eight gallons of water. This
is easy work
One of these insects will be the pro
genitor of over 5000 million descend
ants at the end of five generations,
which makes the discovery and prompt
treatment of the first ones highly i'm
portant
The leaf roller is another enemy that
rolls up the leaves and also works upon
the buds, eating small holes in the
ends.
Then there are other caterpillars
the young of moths and butterflies, that
feed upon the foliage and also upon the
buds. These should be hand picked or
crushed, as 1t is difficult to reach them
after they have protected themselves
by the folding of the leaves.

small brown beetle that appears In

Have Your Soil Rich.

The soil can hardly be made too rich.
Well composted manure should be
worked down deep into the bottom of
the bed or of the rows If they are not
in the latter form. This should be cow
manure, as that is Of cooler nature
and better suited to the requirements
of the plant. Horse manure is too
heating and will injure the roots If
used in large quantities. Liquid
manure used in diluted form once a
week after the buds are formed viii be

How to Grow Cuttings

How can you root summer cuttings?
Make a or 5-inch cutting of a rose
branch that is coming into bloom, or
is just through blooming. Cut just be
low an eye, leaving a small heel" or
strip of bark attached. Trim off the
lower set of leaves even with the wood.
Leave the end leaf entire and trim the
leaf or two remaining, back to the
first pair of leaflets. Insert these cut
tings in wet sand up to the last eye.
Put them in the window and keep con-
stantly damp until they root, which
should be in from 8 to weeks. Teas
root easily by this method.
To root from semi-dormant wood /:
About the beginning of autumn, Sep
tember in the North, October in the
South, take your cuttings. Several
may be made from one cane, as pretty
we'll ripened wood roots after this
method as we'll as any. Make the cut.
tings about inches long. Cut just be
low an eye making a slanting cut
and trim off the lower leaves. Now
dig a hole by the parent bush. Put a
handful of sand at the bottom If you
have il, and put In your cuttings, set
ting them one inch apart and firming
the earth very solidly about them
Only about an inch of the upper stem
should project above the ground. Put
a glass fruit jar over the cuttings
sinking the jar we'll into the ground
then bank up the earth a couple oi
inches around the can. Let the cut
tings. jar and all, rigidly alone until
spring is well advanced. 1t will be
found then that nearly every cutting
has rooted. This plan seems to be 9
success wherever it is tried, North
South, East or West. Nearly all hybriC
teas and perpetuals root well in this
way. So do moss, memorial and ram
bier roses.
In the culture of roses the creates
trials and disappointments are me
with in the insects that persistently at
tack them and of which there arr
many. One of the first in the earl!
