Portland Roses.
This is why they call it the Rose City, and this is why
Portland, more than any other city in the land, ia the
conspicioua exponent of rose culture.
No other city could successfully produce a rose festival
year after year, for no other city has the roses.
This branch is typical of the roses grown in Portland.
It is from a three-year-old bush of Caroline Testouts
growing in the garden of Thomas Jones at East Twenty
eighth and Brazee streets. It contains 23 full-blown roses
and 27 large buds. The bush from which it was plucked
contains numerous similar branches and Mr. Jones' yard
contains numerous similar bushes. Thousands of other -Portland
yards are thus adorned.
This is Rose Festival week and the roses will be in the
full heighth of their glory.
