Some rose species, like Rosa
hcgop1s. are difficult to grow from
cuttings and are therefore grown by
layering; that IL. by covering shoots
with earth until they are well rooted
before cutting them from the plant.
The rooted stems OF the Wichuraiana
might be considered to be natural
layers.
Climbing roses are mostly propagat-
ed by hardwood outings. Cut-hower
roses are grown from hardwood cut
tings, greenwood or softwood cuttings
and by budding or grating.
Hardwood cuttings are taken from
the dormant wood of winter, while
softwood, or greenwood, cuttings are
taken when the plants are in active
growth. To make a hardwood cutting,
good, strong, well-ripened shoots OF
the past summers growth should be
selected. These are better II cut be-

new IMPORT BAR
BY GREAT BRITAIN

Washington. March ga cablegram
from the American consul general at
London said that after April /, Great
Britain would prohibit the importa-
ton OF goods OF neutral manufacturers
in whose production have entered ma
terials and labor Of enemy origin
amounting to more than 8 per cent,
of the cost.
Exceptions will be made for goods
to be admitted under special license.
Department of commerce officials
said today the order would havs little
effect upon industries in the Cnited
States. They thought il probably was
issued because British industry had
become so well organized 1t could
take care Of most OF It's own feeds.
Teutonic supplies in other than
contiguous neutral countries probably
are believed to be about exhausted
now so the new order will be felt
chiefly among the northern European
neutrals.
