PLANTING ROSES IN OCTOBER

This is the time Of the year when Z

growth has been stopped previous to |
their arrival--should be ordered from |
the grower and planted They may
be planted on through the winter and
until late spring il necessary, but af-
ter the frosts come the difficulties Of
planting are greatly enlarged, Of
course. and with spring the oppor-
tunities for getting a successful root
hold in time TO put forth the best
blooming effort become less and less.
Roses are extremely anxious about
their exposure to sunlight. They want
all they can get. Also. some OF them
are extremely anxious about their soil.
although there are varieties like La
France which thrive best in the poor
est ground. 1t is best, IL you are
hoping for healthy plants and many
blooms, TO prepare the beds thorough
ly several weeks In advance OF plant
ing.
The ground should be excavated two
and a half feet. All the top soil should
be put in one pile and all the subsoii
in another. On the bottom OF this
excavation six inches OF broken stone
or cinders should be spread to ensure
proper drainage. On top OF this foun-
dalton should be placed a mixture Of
one-third clay. one-third COW manure
and one-third topsoil, thoroughly
worked together and completely Sling
the excavation. Only in unusually
good ground will there be sufficient
topsoil for the purpose. and il the sub
soil is sandy it will be necessary to
20 elsewhere for the clay also. It is a
tedious and. occasionally, an expensive
process, but il is futile TO try to raise
roses in a--bed that IS not deep, rich
and well drained.
In laying out rose beds tt is we'll
TO keep in mind the fact that the
plants should be set twenty inches
apart on the average and that the
rows should set ten inches back from
the edge of the bed. Thus, n narrow
bed, such as the Sort that might bor-
der a path, should be forty inches
wide, unless you are thinking of plant
ing the larger varieties OF roses, in
which case the distance apart must be
increased
The rose plants should never be put
in the ground when they are too COM

MISS SAMWORTH HEADS

such excellent organizing work among
the women of her political party, has

than service to ones fellow creatures
During the past fall i have had oc-
casion to visit many places throughout
the lower end Of the state and l was

we couldn't do without it.
The knowledge that lower Della

to help, is one of the big reasons why

the splendid success which Mrs.
Thomas w. Wilson. who has been di-
recting the Junior Red Cross, has been
making Of the campaigns in the past.
What / hope to do" said Miss
Samworth, SIS 10 make the Junior
Red Cross part Of the regular school
work in connection with the study of
civics, geography and history. We
don't study about Brazil simply 10

the rubber which it produces is COL
lected by human beings. 1t is this
humanizing process in which ! think
the Red Cross work will fit in nicely.
II am seeking permission from the
State Teachers Association to have
speaker address them at their No

and if the request is granted then
