Book The American Rose Annual  1923  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The American Rose Annual 1923 Classic Reprint written by American Rose Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-04 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Rose Annual, 1923 There is definite evidence of a great increase in rose interest in America. All over the land, literally from the Arctic Circle to Central America, men and women are working to make the rose universal. Beyond our own vast territory, too, members Of the American Rose Society show a deepening interest in extending the dominion Of the Queen of Flowers. President Pyle's stirring message to members, the differing angles of rose development taken by three eminent magazine editors, and the urgent need made evident for support that may forward American rose research, all demand general interest of the unselfish sort. Somewhere there is a worker, possibly of Van Fleet genius and quality, who may thus be supported to ward the doing Of great things for the rose in America. It is believed that the critical study of climatic relations made by Capt. Thomas and the referendum report on The Favored Roses of All America are the, most important and helpful presentations yet made toward assuring rose success for the beginner. In compliance with the feeling of the President and the Chairman Of the Membership Committee, there have been added brief suggestions for starting with roses. All will find both interest and help in the Members' Rose Forum, a feature which may well be continued in future issues.

Book The American Rose Annual

Download or read book The American Rose Annual written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Rose Annual: 1922 The steady progress of the effort to make the rose universal in America through the introduction of varieties able to endure the varied conditions of our vast area is checked; not stopped, by the untimely death of that great genius of hybridization, Dr. Van Fleet. It has seemed best, inasmuch as he had for six years used the American Rose Annual to report the progress of his adventures into the world's rose resources, to present in this issue some detailed account of the life and personal qualities of that great man. In the fine forward look of President Pyle mention is made Of the desirability Of having many rose shows in America in 1922. TO aid those who are disposed to undertake this pleasant and desirable work, experiences and suggestions are given in several articles. It is hoped that these will be found useful. The two referendums to our members brought out strongly the desire to know how to protect roses from insects and dis eases. The articles provided are probably the most complete presentations yet made on that essential subject, and they ought to be very helpful. There is always interest in new roses, always the lure Of the novelty. The Editor's office has diligently pursued all the rose hybridists of the world, and in consequence there is printed in this Annual a very complete account of the new roses, as well as critical comment on many of them by capable foreign and American rosarians.

Book The American Rose Annual  1921  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The American Rose Annual 1921 Classic Reprint written by American Rose Society and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Rose Annual, 1921 Very grateful is the Editor for the courtesy of the Secretary of the National Rose Society of England, as well as for the help of our French friends, MM. Turbat and Siret. One regret the Editor expresses: that so small a percentage of the widespread membership of the Society responds with asked-for information and suggestions. Most interesting are the letters that do come, but the Editor feels that it would only be a fair recognition of the time and effort gladly spent on his part if many more rose friends would write in inquiry, in criticism, in suggestion, in helpful attention. Isn't the rose prosperity of America worth a letter and a stamp once a year? A "rose-note" may help another member past a hard spot. Our friends are especially urged to use promptly the enclosed mailing cards. The organization of the Society has been notably advanced in the establishment of the Secretary's office in Philadelphia. The "Members' Handbook" which follows the Annual, with various details and the complete membership list in alphabetical and in geographical forms, is an evidence of the increasing strength of the Society. This strength should increase materially in 1921 through the efforts of our members. The tradesmen whose announcements follow the text are all reliable, and their offerings are commended to our members. The tradesmen whose announcements follow the text are all reliable, and their offerings are commended to our members. It is hoped to present thus each year a practically complete list of the dependable rose merchants of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Rose Annual: The 1919 Year-Book of Rose Progress Roses seem to incite always the effort to improve, for all the nations, all the writers, are trying for better roses, to serve the better world we are now to make. While the Editor has prepared this 1919 Annual under the peculiar handicap Of service in Washington, - where he has been heeding the call Of Uncle Sam for many busy months, - he believes the rose-presentation has not suffered in consequence, simply and only because his rose friends have done unusually well their bit in patriotic as well as in capable helpfulness. His thanks to them are at the same time a congratulation upon the result - their result. In this Annual the record features begun in the first issue, that for 1916, have been continued and amplified. Perhaps the statistical form of presenting rose records, though undoubtedly compact, is less desirable than the chatty and narrative form? Only the readers Of the Annual can decide!

Book The American Rose Annual

Download or read book The American Rose Annual written by J. Horace McFarland and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Rose Annual: The 1918 Year-Book of Rose Progress In the midst of the world war this third American Rose Annual is sent out, in the feeling that there is no least lack of patriotic fervor and no failure to sense the seriousness of the combat for the very life of civilization in thus aiming to promote the prosperity of the rose. Every day that passes, every word from the front, every item concerning the support of the war, shows the worth-whileness of recourse to the best that nature can give, in order that we may more courageously, humanly, and efficiently face the common foe. It is in this feeling that the Editor has secured the important symposium, "Shall We Grow Roses in Wartime?" which immediately follows. Evidences are not lacking that the preceding issues of this little book have served as a magnet to draw together and weld firmly not only the rose-growers of America, but our friendly allies in England and in France. The American Rose Society has in the past year materially increased in strength and importance, and its future seems bright with possibilities. It will be observed by those who consult this Annual that the discussion as to rose stocks is going on encouragingly and importantly. The memorandum in "Rose Notes" relating to importations shows the necessity, if we are to have roses in the United States, of arranging to grow them successfully here. Much space has been given to the presentation of the thoughtful and scientific tests of roses conducted in Captain George C. Thomas' great garden, and also to the report of impartial observations in the Washington and Cornell Test-Gardens. It is believed that rose-lovers will find in these observations and in other articles of the same nature valuable information in considering rose varieties. If the American Rose Society had done nothing else than to foster the orderly study of rose pathology, it would deserve its present prosperity.
