The Luinl't r' hauler's friciul A PROFUSION OF ROSES Grcxnts Pass Rose Gardens H&ve Abundance of Flowers Such roses cost $1.50 per dozeu where I came from." Such was the remark of a Minneapolis man as be idmired a bouquet of somo of our roses last week. Not only was lie well inside the truth, but in many places such roses as Grants Pass gar dens are now showing, are 11 ?t to be found even Iu hothouses. The past season lias been very favor able for roses, nnd tho blossoms never were fin-r. It is a constant marvel to eastern people how we call raiso such beautiful roses outdoors. ' The secret is in Our mild w hiter aud the large amount of spring suushiue. Anybody can have roses in prolusion 1 Grants Pass with - vory little trouble. They are easily propagated from cuttings, and 011 account of our long season, make as much growth in one year as the ordinary rose w hich is sold for a two year old. There is hardly a catalogued variety which will not give good results with us. This spring all of tho gardens which have "Beauty of Glazenwood" bushes area mass of salmon and orange color, the blossoms almost hiding the bush. Marechal Niel was also at its best and one, two year oni .oisti set our last spriug produced at least SO large per fect flowers. A walk along our resi dence streets w ill show a profusion of bloom, not often ou, and such varie ties as tho La France family, Bride, Duchess do Brabans, Paul Neyron, Etoilo de Lyon, Catherine Mirmet, Gloire de lvon, Marie Henrictto, Gen'l Jacqueminot, w ill be seen iu all their glory. Paul Neyron ofteu at tains a size oi seven inches across, and is a constant bloomer. Roses begin to bloom abont May 1, and last till December I, although it is not an exception to pick pretty buds in December. It is dittleult. to say whether tho spring or fall rosea are the finest, as the latter blossoms have a beauty of fragrance and coloring peculiarly their own. Oregon is a rose state, but we doubt if any part of it can show liner roses than those which may uow be enjeyed by everyone.
