A fairly heavy clay loam is the best soil for Roses.

Dark colored | btumic soils because they absorb and retain more of the sun's heat than dc the light colored clays are un- suited to the Rose. As pure clays are too heavy and lack fertility they sbould where existent be lightened | matter of which manure from the | cow stables is best, this being a cool | manure, not heating much in fer- | mentation and being watery in de-| composition adds to the coolness and | to the moisture content of the soil. | Ordinary stable manure however, tiay be employed when ox manure cannot be obtained. If the soll is too light and sandy it may be im-| proved by the addition of loam and | of ox manure or of leaf soil so as to make it fertile and retentive o moisture. > ) The beds or borders to receive the Rose bushes may be prepared during Autumn for either late Autumn or Spring planting. They may how- ever, also be prepared during March or early April and as the Roses do best 'when their roots are. able to penetrate deeply it is well to dig the soil two spades deep at the same time working therein the _manure. If the soil is prepared ~a_shtums fresh strawy manure may he employ- ed but if in Spring, only that which is at least half rotted. The Position. Upon the choice of the position in which to plant the Roses may de- pond success in their culture. It is best to plant them in a somewhat sheltered position but also open to full sunshine. The plants must have abundant light but should be pro- tected somewhat from the prevail. Ing winds of winter, also of sum- "mer for that matter so that the | three and a halt feet. blooms will not be destroyed before fully serving their purpose. More! ospegially is it necessary to protect In all other respects the pesition should be fully open to favor atmospheric coolness during summer. Masses of low growing shribs or hedges may be planted or advantage be taken of existing structures to afford protection. The position should be such that water will not stand in the soil; good drainage is as essential to success as any other factor. Roses wi | not en- dure in badly drained soils and in such may die during the first win- ter. The position thus should not be In a depression but -rather a slight elevation from which the water will surely drain. tt Planting. As the different classes of roses Qualities, it is essential that when planting, these things be cousider- ed. Plant Hybrid Teas two feet apart, Hybrid Perpetual three to There is no advantage in planting roses too closely. Six or even eight feet apart, whether planted near structure such as trellis, fences or pergolas will for mest purposes suffice. It is better to plant them far enough apart so that their growths may be trained and controlled than to allow them to become tangled and unmanagable. Ir this latter condition they harbor irsects, and usually do not flower so profusely. When planting, make the holes large enough to accommodate the extended roots and scatter fine fer- tile oil in the bottom, choosing a time when the soil is fairly dry and friable. Remove all damaged or broken roots with a sharp knife, spread the roots well, Plant two inches deeper than the old soil mark cu the stem. This is easy to detect, a® usually the portion below the soil is a yellowish brown, while the aer- fal portions are green. If the bush bears the swollen portion which is characteristic of budded plants, lower it two inches below this into the hole. With the hand seatter the soil evenly among and over the fib- Tous roots until they are thoroughly covered. Move the plant upwards and downwards slightly to allow the soil to settle, then finish the work by filling the hole by means of the spade. Framp firmly around the plant, and rake the surface smooth- ly. If the weather is dry, saturate the soil and finally afford a mulch of PRUNING OF SECOND YEAR'S GROWTH, CULTURE OF OUTDOOR ROSE litter or half decayed Manure, if planting is done in the Spring to {conserve the moisture of the soil. Roses should not be Jeft exposed to the sun while planting. Should any drying of the roots be apparent ere planting, immerse them 1n water for an hour, or if the stems appear sirivelled and yet alivé, bury the entire plant root and stem in moist sell for a few days. If the stems are not normally restored by this practice, have 'the plants replaced. ard so prevent disappointment. The proper time tq plant Roses 'is dur- ing Spring as early as the soil can be properly worked. In the less frigid winter localities such as the West Coast, and southern Peninsulas of Cntario, they may be planted during late October or early November with safety. = -- ROSES SUITED TO SMALL GAR- DENS, Hybrid Teas Hortulanus Budds--dark red Atiole de Holland--dark red Red Letter Day---Scarlet crimson Gruss an Teplitz-- Scarlet crimson General McArthur--crimson Geo.
