GOOD QUALITIES OF
DAHLlA JACK ROSE
Sells Prices Far Above chrysanthenuns Because of
Brilliant Crimson, Decidedly Richer Shade
han Found n Jaequen,not

So much has been said. pro and con.
about this dahlia, that would like to
clear the atmosphere. Instances have
been brought to my notice where a
distinctly different variety was sold
for Jack Rose; the old question of prop
erly growing and handling the blooms
has also great deal to do with this.
as with any other flower. writes L. X.
Peacock of Berlin, N. j., in Gardening.
Last fall Jack Rose was condemned
by a great many who had seen flowers
from certain sources. and on seeing
blooms grown by us could hardly con-
ceive them to be the same variety. 1t
was certificated by the Pennsylvania
Horticultural society after having
been critically examined and passed
upon by expert committees at both
the September and October meetings.
1t was then pronounced the finest
crimson dahlia on the market. cut
blooms selling for six dollars per 100
blooms.
Now, after another years growing.
during which we had several acres.
The new era., 1910-04-21

after one years experience under ad.
verse conditions. in the face of tho
perfect flowers produced by competent
growers in probably the worst season
we have experienced in the last IS
years with the exception perhaps of
1896
Another thing not to be forgotten Is
the forcing quality Of Jack Rose.
which Is even to-day being placed on
the market and sold at prices far
above chrysanthemums, as it has that
brilliant rich crimson that appeals to
all, and cannot be found In the
chrysanthemum; decidedly richer
shade than found even in 'Jacqueminot
rose.
Perhaps one of It's best qualities Is
largely responsible for the criticism
of the color, and l wish to say most
emphatically. it does not bleach one
fourth as badly as Lyndhurst. and yet
Lyndhurst is the standard vermilion
scarlet. Lindhurst is inclined to show
the open center If allowed to get old
enough to fade. but Jack Rose con-
tinues to unfold for days, until finally
The new era., 1910-04-21

there is nothing left at the center,
being absolutely full. and even then
the petals which have become some
what bleached can be removed and 1t
is still a perfect flower. If Jack Rose
blooms were cut in the same condi-
tion and with the same regularity as
Lyndhurst, there would be no COM
plant that the color was not every
thing that could be desired. The only
criticism made on Jack Rose has been
length of stem and color. and. as
am only answering the criticism, l am
not extolling the other merits OF
the flower.
The new era., 1910-04-21

we can only add to the praise eX-
tended by us last year. 1t was the
healthiest plant we had on the place,
the first to get into bloom, and every
flower was perfect the entire season;
which, in our location, was a most
trying one, owing to the extended
drought.
In justice to the many florists and
seedsmen who have stocked up on
Jack Rose, 1t is only fair to say that
no attention should be paid to detri-
mental remarks made by inexperi-
enced growers, or even experienced
growers. who only know the variety

No other medicine for woman's ills

For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, ulcera tion local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,

and nervous prostration, and it is
