Editor of "Farm and Why not have roses? Plenty of roses for cutting; for bouquets; for the table; to give re away? Perhaps you have been thinking that would like to have an abundance you of roses, queen of flowers." of course, there is no other flower which quite takes their place. But maybe you have felt that you did not have room to grow them. That 1s, no room the "garden" or "bush" varieties--the kind which furnish an flowers for cutting. Within recent years, there have been developed what is practically 8 new type of rose. They are climbing or semi-climbing in habit of growth but unlike the old-fashioned "Ramblers," these new climbing roses produce an abundance of big, single flowers with long stiff stems; or loose clusters of flowers, the individual blooms of which are two to four inches in diameter.

An abundance of beautiful blooms for cutting without 8 rose garden to "look after!" Type of New Roses Cited. These roses can be grown wherever the climbing roses, such new, the Crimson Rambler could be grown! They are, for the most part, very hardy. Fully ag hardy As the Crimson Rambler. And they are much more vigorous and healthy than that old favorite, the follage of which is subject to "blight" or "mildew." In addition to being extremely hardy and healthy, many of these new roses are of the most vigorous habit of growth. I have had them produce canes 12 to 15 feet long in a single season, with only ordinary care.

These new roses are as easy to grow and to care for as any of the Ramblers. Like the Ramblers, they do not require the careful spring pruning, and general good care which most garden roses demand. They will come as near "taking care of themselves" Ag any rose you can grow. Of course, any rose, or any other plant for that matter, will do better if you give it a reasonable mount of attention. Sometimes it alseems as though plants really appreciated any little thought and care one gives them.

and actually try to how their appreciation in better growth and more generous bloom! Still more important, from the home gardener's point of view, these new elimbing roses have a much longer seaon of bloom than the Ramblers. Many them have, as one parent, one of the regultr garden or "monthly" roses, and Inherit this tendency to bloom throughout the season. "Should Be Given Support."

CO. 585 Estes Ave, Cincinnati, Ohio RECESSION IS SHOWN Upward Trend of Softwood Mar. ket, Bays Lumber. 4 recession in the upward trend of the soft wood market, strong during the early part of January, reported by Lumber in its weekly review of the umber market ofthe United States, follows: spreads in quotations are characterising the two principal softwoods, with the appearance of selling pressure from some quarters and more frequent concessions in prices in both yellow plae and Douglas fur. The Inclination of the market is to weaken, and this tendency is more pronounced because of the policy of railroads and car builders in withholding their requirementa.

From some centers a fairly good demand for yellow pine in the upper grades la reported, but on the whole the yard demand is hesitant, and such changes as have occurred in prices have been downward, The Douglas Ar situation has been further affected by felling off of the Japanese demand and the gradual completion of export orders on Ale.

"Orders, shipments and production for the various associations are now proximately at the same level, although orders for the week ending January 21 were slightly in excess of production.
