GUT lAI FROZEN SHOOTS HOW TO TREAT ROSE BUSHES INJURED BY FROST. Frederick V. HoIman'F Counsel to Grovrcr5 Few Bushes, He Thinks, AVerc Killed. Everj rose bush in and about Portland was Injured more or leas by the blizzard of last week. Xone eicapd. All the new. tender shoots which put out late in February and early In March ar badly damaged, if not frozen to death, but the main hushep were not killed. What to do now with thes blackened and withered stems Is a question that novices in rosegrowlng are asking them selves. Yesterday's balmy weather no doubt prompted several to ask The Ore gonlan to idvise them. Their Inquiries were referred to Mr. Frederick V. Hol man. who courteously took time frpm a busy day to pen the following: Vhll" the recent colt weather damaged many roe buhe?, I am of the opinion that very few hushes have bfen permanently in jured. The wind, combined with the cold, was jmrflelent to kill many of the new shoots or to srreatly damage thee rhoote. In my own carden, where I hRve about J00 wc bufliex.

But if the roots are not Injure, even thc.e will send out new shoots, and the effect will be to make the bushes grow irtrong ly. as though they had been pruned to that point. Instead of being killed to the ground by the cold weather. If the new shoots arc killed or have been damaged to practically the whole length. U will be best to cut off the damaged new shoots very clows to the main stem. In a short time a bud or "eye" will appear on each ide of where the new ehoot joined the main stem, and each of these will grow Into a shooL In many instance it might be well. If thore be two new rhoots, to pinch off one after they have grown to .the length of say one inch. Thl Is on!) .necessary to keep the buhcs from having too many new shoote. In most instances, if the new shoots have, been killed, they will dry up and drop off or slouch off. Jt I best, however, to cut olt these Khoot which have been killed, as I have Indicated. If the destroyed new hoot la allowed to slough off. It may kill the hark where it cane from the main stem and ex tend to the new shoota, which would other wise grow. Fortunately. In Tortland the weather did not become cold enough to fret2e the sap in the older wood of moet buahe. It Is pos sible that it may have been cold enough be tween Portland and Vancouver In some places to kill some of the bushes to the ground. If there was any manure or other protection on the beds the cold doe not teem to havo been great enough to kill the root by freez ing the ground. It will be well to wait until the mild weather now prevailing given a chance for the new bude. which are to make shoots and branches, to develop. Inleas the old stems have become black ened, and on removing a small part of the bark it I seen that thl blackness goes to the wood. It will be best not to cut the buhca which have been alreadv pruned any runner until it l seen that the old shoots have been killed. But It the bark ban turned block and this blackness extends to the wood, the bush should be trimmed below such place as soon as it Is ascertained that this has taken place. NURSES GIVEN OIPLOiS GRADUATES FROM ST. VI X. CENT'S ARE HONORED. Clergy and Hospital Staff Unite to Express Good Wishes for Their Success. Amid the laudators' remarks of the clergy and hospital staff, the best wishes of scores of friends, the beautiful sur roundings of flowers and music, ten pretty girls graduated from the training school of 9L "Vincent's Hospital last night and took their places in tthe rank of trained nurses, a calling which has become Indis pensable to the medical profession. The exercises were especially pleasing for such an occasion and the large audience of friends and admirers of the graduates gave testimony to their popularity and sterling worth. A long table which stood at the head, of the room was loaded to its canacity with flowors and gifts, and white dresses and happy faces of the class members formed a fitting back ground for this token ot appreciation from many Portlanders. Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie had charge of the exercises and opened the programme with appropriate remarks, expressing his. belief that the members of the -class were entirely fitted for the important profes sion which they were entering. He Intro duced Dr. William Jones, who gave the address to the 'graduates. Dr. Jones re marks were of a highly laudators nature, but fraught with much good advice to the young nurses who were to undertake many Important cases in the immediate future. He warned them that in many instances the flame of life was reduced to a feeble flicker, and whether It flamed up again or went out depended entirely on the nurse. He admonished them to keep Informed on the many and constant advances in their profession and to read current magazines and books on the sub ject. The RU Rev. Alexander Christie. Arch bishop of Oregon, awarded the diplomas, afterward making a glowing speech of tribute to the quality and steadfastness which -tho class members have exhibited during the three years of their training. He gave all credit to the Sisters whose patience and self-sacrlflce had meant so much to the pupils of the training school, and also to the efficient members of the hospital staff. After several numbers by a stringed orchestra the flowers and pres ents were disbursed and the class re ceived the congratulations of their many friends. Drs. R. T. Boals, G. H. Ostranden, I,. E. Matter and A- C. Hanson were graduated from the hospital school, having .served their terms as Interns.
