The W. W. Barnard Co., 231-235 W. Madison St., Chicago 85 Hardy Everblooming Hybrid-Tea Roses They have been produced by crossing the free-flowering Tea Roses with other varieties, principally of the June-flowering or Hybrid Perpetual classes, thus combining not only the free-flowering habit of the Tea Rose with the rich and varied colors of the other classes, but also comparative hardiness, all of the varieties listed standing the winter with protection as recommended for the latitude of Chicago. For win- ter, hill soil about the stems to a height of 6 or 8 inches, just before frost, and then cover the entire bed with leaves or straw. A good plan is to put a temporary fence of twelve-inch chicken wire netting around the bed, filling in loosely with leaves, and with a little earth or some branches over all to prevent them from blowing away. Do not remove covering until all danger of frost is past in the spring. STRONG DORMANT PLANTS—Each, $1.00; $10.00 per Doz.

George Arends, or Pink Prau Karl Druschki—This is a ten- der-rose colored form of the popular white Rose, Frau Karl Druschki, possessing not only the noble form, large size and remarkable free-flowering habit of its parent, but is also highly perfumed. Hermosa—(China or Bengal Rose.) Pleasing shade of bright pink; fine both for pot and gar- den culture. Gruss an Teplitz—This is a Rose for everybody, suc- ceeding under the most ordinary conditions. In color it is of the richest scarlet shading to a velvety-crimson; very fragrant, a free, strong grower and in bloom all the time. Kaiserin Augusta Victoria—This splendid Rose should be in every collection. In color it is a soft, pearly-white, tinted with just enough lemon in the center to relieve the white; remarkably fragrant, beauti- fully formed flowers on long, graceful stems; a strong, free, healthy grower, with bold, handsome foliage. Killamey—This is one of the most popular of our garden Roses, and also one of the lead- ing varieties for winter cut flowers. It is perfectly hardy; in growth it is strong and robust, and as free-flowering as any Rose we know. In color it is a sparkling, brilliant pink; the blooms are large, the buds long and pointed, the petals very large and of great substance, and just as handsome in the full-bloom flower as in the bud form.

The blooms are very large, full, of great substance and produced very freely and deliciously fragrant; one of the best bedding varie- ties.

Pro- duced on long stems suitable for cut- ting. Sunburst—Orange-copper and golden yellow. A mag- nificent free-blooming variety, especially handsome in bud form. White Maman Cochet—A splendid Rose; has all the good qualities of Pink Ma- man Cochet, but is pure snow-white, with outside petals tipped in the autumn; large and fragrant, hardy and productive. White Killarney—A pure white sport of the popular Killamey Rose, identical in every way with its parent, excepting in color which is a pure white.
