Excerpt from The American Rose Annual: The 1920 Year-Book of Rose Progress Within the hampering space-limits of a pound's mailing weight, anxious effort has been made to supply the members of the American Rose Society with freshly gathered information setting forth rose-progress in all the world as well as in America. Hearty thanks are due to the kindly and cultured men and women who have contributed to this purpose, and also apologies are made to some of them for the contractions necessary by reason of the space-weight limitation.
