Introducer: Frederick R. M. Undritz. E. A. White, Sec'y. SEED OF BOSA MULTIFLORA. Would it be better to sow seed of Rosa multiflora japonica in the fall, without a mulch, so the frost would help germination f E. M.—N. J. The seeds do better if washed out and sown at once. They are then pretty sure to germinate the first sea- son. If carried over winter dry, they may not start until the second year. Freezing is believed to advance germ- ination. Mulching is only necessary to prevent heaving of the soil. Field mice love rose seeds; therefore be sure your seeds are secure from their attacks. For this reason it is safer to sow in flats in a coldframe or cold greenhouse than outdoors, 0. W. BOSES FOB MEMORIAL DAT.
