This organization is composed of several thousand growers of the Queen of flowers. e percentage of the memben · re Ideated in · the eastern states, but . several middle west and pacific coast states are represented by a few members each. The purpose of the organization is to study and test many varieties of ros~s and their adaptability to various sections of the country; to ascertain those varieties which are most prolific in their blooms; to improve cultural methods and to effedively fight insect enemies. · John Western,· founder and manager of North Shore cemetery, was recently elected vice-president of the American Rose Society for Illinois.

Mr. and Mrs. Western attended the last annual meeting of the American Rose society, which was held last ·September at the famous country home of Pierre S. du Pont, located about forty miles from Philadelphia on the road to Baltimore. The society is composed largely of growers of roses out-of-doors and not for sale. North Shore cemetery is rapidly becoming famous as the only cemetery in America which grows roses in large numbers.
