What to Do for Success With Roses

essary to plant roses near trees,
dig a trench around the rose bed,
as deep as the tree roots extend.
In this way you will cut off tree
roots which attempt to enter the
rose bed. The trench can be filled
in Immediately after the tree
roots have been cut, but it should
be re-dug every year if the tree
roots prove persistent, as they
will.
Plant rose bushes as soon as
possible after they are received
from the nursery. If the weather
does not permit planting when
the bushes are received, unpack
and bury them, covering both tops
and roots with soil.
Success with roses also calls for
planting the bushes close together
SO that the foliage will keep the
ground shaded and cool. Twelve to
Is inches is the rule for hybird
teas. Taller varieties may be
placed for best effect. Don't worry
too much about color combina-
tions. Colors in roses seldom
clash.

new COFFEE SHOP
OPENING DELAYED

After having been closed to the
general public since 1912, the Cape
Fear hotel coffee shop will reopen
sometime this summer when a
current interior remodeling pro-
gram and the installation of new
equipment have been completed.
Sidney j. Rivenbark, manager
Of the hotel, emphasized last night,
however, that a definite reopening
date can not be fixed until the
present improvement program has
been completed.
This includes the arrival and in
staHation of new air conditioning
equipment, new kitchen equipment
and various new furnishings and
fixtures for the coffee shop proper,
he said.
Much of this equipment has been
on order for months, but shipment
has been delayed from time to time
and the general progress OF the
improvement plans have thus been
retarded.
At present, the interior OF the eat
ing establishment is undergoing
renovation. New flooring already
has been laid in the coffee shop
and the kitchen.
The booths are being r%efurnished
and new chairs are being provld-
ed for the tables, Rivenbark said.
I'D like to be able to announce
that the reopening will take place
in early summer" he said, but
it is impossible to make a definite
statement at this time because OF
the uncertainty of equipment de-
liveries. 1t may be midsummer,
and it may even be later than that,
although l hope not"
The hotel coffee shop was closed
to the general public when 1t was
from the hotel corporation
by the army in 1912. The army
cease to use the coffee shop quar-
tiers in 1913. Plans for the general
reopening have been pending since
then.
The establishment has a seating
capacity of about 100.

Most of the new roses are of
budded stock, for a budded plant
is mor satisfactory than a "own
root one.
The difference in root-growth in
roses is c%ontrasted in the accom-
panying Garden-Graph. One shows
poor root development, the other
abundant, vigorous roots.
In locating your rose bed, it is
not important whether the plants
will get morning or afternoon sun
light. The important thing is that
they get about half a day of sun.
Part shade is preferable to a full
day of sunlight.
Select a location where tree
roots will not interfere with the
roots of your roses. When they
can reach it, tree roots will quick
ly invade and eventually fill a
rose bed, consuming food and
moisture intended o the roses.
