Since the Pa cific Northwest region of the American Rose society will hold its annual convention here June 7 and 8, members of the Med ford Rose society are doubly anxious that local growers have an excellent supply of blossoms for entry and exhibit. Mrs. L. G. Gentner of the society pointed out last week that rose buds are developing now, and wrote the following instruction for disbudding of bushes in order to bring on show quality flowers. Hybrid teas are growii dis budded. If a large exhibition rose is wanted, it is necessary to remove some of the flower buds. This is called disbudding. It should be done when the side buds are very small. The term inal bud is usually selected and all other buds are removed. The terminal bud then develops into a much larger flower. Do this early as soon as the side buds are large enough to bend over and snap off or be pinched out. Early disbudding will leave lit tle or no scars on the stem of the rose. Do not leave any stem stubs when disbudding. American Rose society regu lations state that specimen blooms teas, climbing teas, hy brid perpetuals and other exhi bition types must have been grown disbudded. Side buds will disqualify the bloom; evidence of very recent disbudding will be penalized. Single hybrid tea varieties such as Dainty Bess and Inno nence must be displayed and judged as naturally grown flow ers, not disbudded. " 'Floribunda and polyanthus roses should not be disbudded but exhibited as naturally grown. Large-flowered climbers such as Mermaid should be displayed as one spray-lateral and should be classed separately from the climbing hybrid tea specimens. 4 Burma's fatalities from snake bites are the highest known in the world about 15.4 persons per 100,000 population. oV NOW AND SAVE DU,Nq Q(jr Hp feSTV n n o LnJ 32 (ol fD (&y&&2Z get all 43- for only DT ! i - - . - r - - - a - - ' : o mahogany.
