large admixture of Tea in them are
not quite hardy Some of the great
est of the yellow roses are of this
section, including Marechal Mel
and Chromatelle.
| From that one notable beginning
little was done until quite recently,
when the immense possibilities of
the multiflora group (as exempli-
fled in Crimson Rambler) and
Rose Wischuraiana gave new i'm
petus of rose production in Ameri-
ca. We are today only beginning to
realize the development in this
group, which bids fair to be one
enthusiastically American. These
varieties answer the. requirements
the average American garden bet
ter than many other plants, and
! though not roses of the older type,
which will always be grown for cut
flowers, still they are roses and fill
! a place in the garden and about
the porch that no other plants have
done so far
! Four roses of spectacular beauty
have now the coveted AlI-American
selections for 1850 - Capistrano,
Fashion, Mission Bells, and Suffers
Gold. These "Oscar" winners of the
horticultural world were chosen by
the National Rose Jury on the basis
of impartial tests covering a two
year period in eighteen test gar
dens throughout the country.
Capistrano is vigorously sturdy
hybrid, deep rose pink, on extra
long stems. The open flowers reach
a full six inches across. 1t was nam
,, ed for the famous old California
Mission, San Juan Capistrano, foun-
ed during the Revolution and fam
ed in song and story.
The plants of Fashion are full,
bushy and generous, reaching a
heighth of two and one-ha1f feet.
In England this rose was given the
Gold Medal for the best new vari-
ETY. shown in the National Rose So
ciety's exhibition. The buds are orr
entail red and open slowly into flow
ers of about 31s inches across.
Suffers Gold features long-point-
ed bright yellow buds, shaded with
orange and red. The buds open into
! high-centered flowers with twenty
four to thirty petals. It was named
in commeration of Tie Tooth ami
versary of the discovery of gold at
Suffers Mill in california This man
won the Foreign Gold Medal at the
International Bagate1le Contest in
Paris.
Mission Bells is a beautiful deep
+! salmon pink that opens to a clear
shrimp color. The buds are long and
pointed and the fully centered
flowers sometimes measure a full
:5z inches across. The canes have
! few thorns.
In the words of Elizabeth Bar
rett Browning:
"For the rose, Lo the rose! is the
grace Of the earth,
Is the light of the plants that
are growing upon it!
For the rose, Lo the rose! is the
eye of the flowers,
Is the blush of the meadows that
fesl themselves fair"

ROSES
ALL AMERICAN ROSES
THROUGH THE YEARS
BY Mrs. Annie Miller Pless

The rose has been a favorite in
art and poetry from ancient times.
The rose is a favorite flower in
our own country. The rose was
probably a native of Persia, whence
it was introduced to Europe by AL
exander the Great The oldest cul-
tivated species of the rose comes
from Persia and Northern India.
Persia has for its national flower
the Cherokee rose.
In Rome, rose petals were used
in the manufacture of medicines.
In modern times they are used for
perfume. Altar, an essential oil, is
pressed from the petals of the rose;
commonly known as altar of roses.
The rose was imported to Eng
land from the Orient. It is the Of
ficial flower of the houses of Ian
caster and York in England; and
the states of New York, Iowa, the
District of Columbia, and Georgia.
The rose grows wild in practical
ly all emperate regions and on the
mountain heights in the tropics.
Roses flourish particularly we'll in
mild climates like those of Southern
France and the Pacific-coast reg
ions of the United States. In Port
land, Oregon, which is preeminent-
ly a "Rose City," day in June is
set aside each year for the celebra-
ton of the carnival of roses, and
this custom is followed in other
cities of the West.
The rose belongs to the family,
Roseceae. In this family of plants
are about 1000 species of trees,
shrubs, and herbs, and it is repre-
sented by some of our most valu-
able fruits and loveliest flowers. To
the rose family belongs large pro-
portion of the commercial fruits
of the temperate regions, notably,
the apple, pear, and ounce; the
berries, and the peach, apricot plum
and cherry. It's numerous ornamen-
tai plants include, besides the rose,
the meadowsweet, the mountain
ash, and the hawthorn.
Centuries of Horticulture have de-
veloped an immense number of va
rieties of the rose which are widely
grown in temperate regions. Some
twenty species of wild roses grow
in North America.
America has contributed few ros-
es to the great list of varieties pop
ularly known today. Yet two impor-
tant groups are credited to US. A
bout the year 1914 the first Of the
| Noisette class was raised-a class
that has in it some Of the most
pleasing of all cluster roses.
John Champney Of Charleston,
South Carolina, fertihzed the White
Musk with pollen from the Blush
China, which was named Champ
ney's Pink Cluster. A Charleston
florist raised Seeding from this
which he sent to his brother in
France-Louis Noisette - about
1917. From this beginning the
charming class of Noisettes (Which
properly, however, should have
been called Champney Roses) was
raised and distributed. The modern
members of this group having "a

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

When one thinks of veterans finishing their
education under the CT Bill of Rights he
probably thinks almost entirely of returned
soldiers, sailors, or marines studying in col
lege.
There is feeling, then, of humping into a
very solid fact on reading that, according to
the Veterans Administration, nearly 100000
veterans of World War II have used their ben
efits to obtain not college education or to go
to high school but rather to complete their
elementary education.
The figures are reminder that, not-wth-
standing the immense spread of education in
America there still are millions of persons in
the country for whom completion of the
eighth grade is an unattained goal. 1t speaks
we'll for these men and women that they have
been willing, even in maturity, to go back to
learn some of: the lessons of the pre-high
school grades.
Through them the benefit to the nation is
likely to be fully proportionate to the gains
made by others in high schools, universities,
or, graduate studies- Christian Science Mon
itor.

EARLY RELIGIOUS PROGRESS

Enthusiastically, North Carolina
was not very active in it's early
days. The first church in the colony
was built in 1701-2 by the vestry
of Chowan Parish, afterwards St.
PauPs. In 1715 a colonial law re-
cognized the Church of England as
the established church in North
Carolina. Other Protestant denomi-
nations developed slowly but by the
end Of the colonial period most Of
the Protestant sects were well re-
presented.

With voices raised in song, the

FARM SAFETY

1t was Thanksgiving day, Nov

the two children, age z and S
years, were on their way to
Grandpa's home for turkey din
ner. 1t was a good dinner and
everyone had a lot of fun, es-
pecially the kiddies and the
grandparents. But all good things
must come to an end, so at
o'clock the young folks departed
for their home. They drove in the
barnyard and hurried in the
house to get supper. The house
was cold SO Dad picked up the 5
gal. kerosene can and started for
the heater in the living room. He
would build the fire while Mother
stayed in the kitchen to prepare
the evening meal. When Dad
poured the kerosene in the stove,
there was a terrific explosion.
The entire living room was on
fire.
The next day the newspaper
told the story. Father and two
children perish in kerosene ex-
plosion, Mother seriously burned -

osene to kindle fire for years
and nothing had happened un-

New Classification

A new classification, calling for
10 wether lambs, has been an
nounced for the Sheep Depart
ment of the Ohio State Fair by

est in the wether division of the
sheep show has been growing and
the 'Pen-of Ten" will present a
strictly commercial feature, in
the opinion of Frank l.. Cooper

The lambs will be judged in
pens, as is the custom for car lot
groups. d. Robert Jones, assistant
fair manager, points out the quail
ifications that entries must be
sired by pure bred rams. He an
ticipates that most of the entries
in the new class will be joint en-
tries made by groups of individ-
uals participating in lamb and
wool improvement programs or
who are members of clubs. Ten
finished lambs Of the new crop,
all wethers, is a large order for
any individual farm, with the ex-
ception of some of Ohio's largest
establishments.
Quality Ohio lambs are q we'll
known commodity in the eastern

of the Buckeye Sheep Association,
urges commercial lamb producers
to use this opportunity to ac-
Quaint the home folks with the
