Sec.—Mrs. Bonnie Dutton Roses Follow the Flag During the last few years, there has been a revival of Interest in old roses. Since nurseries no longer kept them in stock, collectors had to search for them in rural districts, in the older sections of cities, or aban doned farms and even in "ghost cities” In deserted mining camps. The quest soon became fascinating to the collectors. They found they were exploring America over again One student of old roses says that U is possible to estimate the dates when various settlements were made solely from the old roses found in the gardens. Rose culture has changed greatly since the settlement of America, so each group of roses belongs to a def inite period in history and represents a separate phase of rose development Wherever the pioneer woman went, she took flower seeds and plants from the old home to start the new garden on the frontier. No matter how limited the means of transpor tation some roots of roses would be included and would Invariably be the kinds growing in the settlement left behind. With change or neglect, many of th? other flowers disap peared but the old, hardy roses per sisted. Collectors found them, iden tified, and classified them and made them known again to the public. There is now a steady demand for old or period roses and nurseries again keep them In stock. One lead ing grower advertises a complete and authentic stock of old roses. The first garden roses were brought to America by the early French, Dutch, Spanish and English settlers, and were the kinds that grew in the home countries. The kinds most fa miliar to us are the ones that came from England. They were known as June roses' because they bloomed only once a year in June. Red Gal lic:« is said to be the first garden rose brought from England. The Damask or Provence roses and the Centifolia or Cabbage roses were brought over at about the same time. Moat of us have seen Red Gallica without know ing the name and all of us know the cabbage rose. There are people not crazy, who still think it is the rose most worth while. A famous old ■ose, slightly double, red, flecked with white, is known as York and Lancaster, a reminder of the War of he Roses. Virginia led in gardens of roses be cause of the climate and because nany of the plantations were on wa- erways. Ships could load and un- oad directly at the owners' wharves. Finer roses were brought over in hese trading ships or could be pur chased from early nursery men Scotch roses, including what is now .he wild sweet briar, came over early, is did two yellow briars from eastern lurope and southern Asia. From the sle of Bourbon, the French brought he Bourbon rose, the parents of nany fine roses for fifty years. With so much new stock American hybridizers began producing new ypes. Harrison’s yellows is an Amer- can rose of the year 1839. Then came the period of trade ex- ransion. American ships carried the American flag and American trade into nearly every known port in the world With them went the plant hunter. The best that they brought hack were the China or ever bloom ing roses, which produced a revolu- ion in rose culture. Before this, French hybrids had been brought to America, but Ameri can roses now began to develop. The red and pink China roses came in 1789, the yellow and pink tea roses in 1810. A cross between the old Blush ~hina and the musk rose made the .•mall-flowered cluster roses, the Noisette of 1817. From China roses crossed with June roses came a new family known as hybrid Chinas. Tea noisettes came from crossing tea •oses with noisettes and we-e the r.ost beautiful of the China rose pe- iod. La Marque and Cloth of Gold are types of the Tea Noisetes, Sofrano and Bon Silene of the Tea roses Roses reach their peak of popular ly and then are sunerseded by newer types, sometimes to the regret of rose lovers who knew the older kinds. The FOREIGN Officers elected for the ensuing year were: Mrs. C. C. Farr, Coquille, president; Mrs. James Richmond, Co- quills, vice president; Mrs. William Phillips, Marshfield, treasurer; Mrs. Delbirt Loree, Bandon, recording iccrelary; Mr».

From 1840 to 1880 the Hy- brid Perpetual» were the aristocrats among roses and then gave way to the modern Hybrid Teas. The student of old roses associates them with the people of the past who grew them, and traces them step by step in their march across the continent with the pioneers, from New England, the middle colonies and Virginia to the Ohio, Kentucky or Illinois, from Missouri over the Ore gon Trail to the Pacific. Because of such associations and its sturdy en durance the rose more appropriately than any othor flower could be chosen as the symbol of home life. Mrs. A. R.
