FOR YOUR PROTECTION
AND OUR MUTUAL GOOD

The curse of the age is fake ad-
vertising. The bargain hunter makes
it possible for these fellows to con-
tinue to roll in luxury. One bite is
not enough. They must be bitten
time and time again. The bargain
hunter gets sweet morsel of real
bargain just often enough to keep
him roofing under every trash pile
he gets a scent of.
Just as sure as you find a bargain
you may be sure there is something
to Offset it, but generally it is only
an imitation bargain.
Look for the niger in the wood
pile when you run up on these fell
lows; there is mighty sure to be
one lying around.
The public needs a law to make
it crime to offer bargains or to
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1911-04-12

purchase bargains as much as any
other one thing.
Uncle Sam is good enough to haul
these fake ads to you through his
mails in every magazine for about
one-fourth what it costs him to han
die it, so you need not expect to get
such a law, and you must continue
to use your own judgment.
Your judgment is of little value
in our line, so far as lodging the
fakir is concerned, without expert
knowledge. You get expert knowI-
edge with no charge every time you
depend on Adams Jewelry Store.
We assert the sheep and the goats
for your protection and our mutual
good.
Trash is not always shown as a
bargain; you are asked big prices
occasionally to make you think it
is something fine.

ENTRANTS HERE FOR
WORLDS FAIR NEW
ROSE COMPETITION
Washington Horticulturists
Will Strive for Flower
Glory.

It is probable that Washington rose
growers will enter the competition for
the $1,000 prize offered by the San Fran
cisco fair managers of a Panama Ex-
position Rose But it will not be the
5000 that tempts them-it will be the
glory and profits from sales.
zone thousand dollars is not a very
large prize for a new rose" Fred W.
Gust. a Washington florist. said today.
1.-THE making of a new rose is a long,
tedious, difficult, and not inexpensive
process, and there is a lot Of chance,
a great element of luck in it. A man
cannot design a rose, and then casually
grow something to fit the design. 1t
requires patient experimenting, and
careful and intelligent cultivation. Ex-
cept for the accidents by which new
roses are created, there are hundreds
I might say thousands-of failures for
every success.
BY Mixing the Pollen.
Most new flowers are made by the
process of hybridizing-the mixing Of
the pollen from one flower with the pol
len of another. From thirty or more
resultant seed perhaps there will be one
growth, perhaps none. After the growth
is secured there will be the same ele-
meat of uncertainty as to products from
II, and as to the fertility of the sup
posedly new variety. Often, too, plants
are crossed many times to produce a
new variety.
ANY hybridizing is likely to produce
something different from the flowers
crossed. but a mere difference does not
necessarily make a new flower. 1t must
have distinction of form or color"
Freak Flower Offspring.
One Of the mere differences encoun-
tered in plant culture is what is known
as sport" 1t is a freak offspring,
practically always sterile, and notable
for unique color or shape. In roses a
frequent variety of sport is in the
division of each petal into two colors.
In the same way double plants often
produce singles, and singles sporadically
grow doubles. Such departures from
normal however, do not constitute new
plants.
The crossing of plants is similar to
the methods used in the breeding of ami
mails. One stock supplies strength or
hardness or prolific quality, while the
other supplies beauty of form, texture
or color.
In the contest for the San Francisco
fair prize a great deal of interest is
manifested in the fact that Luther Bur-
bank, the plant wizard" who has Gre
ated hundreds of new plants, lives IN
California and undoubtedly will par
ucipate in the contest.
