 will refund your money by return mail. We pack in cut flower boxes, rain or shine, hot or cold. 



We lost only 17 carnation plants in planting this season from stem rot. Our carnations never ^ 

 looked finer and they are free from any disease, thanks to our moisture gauges.

Hygrometer or Moisture Gauge 



|HIS Moisture GaiiRe tells you the dilterence be- 

 tween dryness and dampness in your greenhouses. 

 We have been testing two of these moisture 

 gauges several months and find they are more in- 

 dispensible than the thermometer. If you keep this mois- 

 ture gauge at 70 degrees you will have neither mildew 

 nor red spider in your rose houses. If you keep it at 80 

 degrees you will not have rust nor red spider in your car- 

 nation houses. If youkeepit at 85 degrees you will never 

 have fungus in your rooted cutting houses. If you keep 

 it at 75 degrees you will not have decayed leaves in 

 your geranium houses; and if you have a moisture gauge 

 in every house 100 feet long and keep it at above figures 

 you will make at leastSioo more peryear from each house. 

 Who wants to buy mildewed roses or rusty carnations? 



To operate this moisture gauge it is essential to wet 

 the walks in order to get the proper dampness. If your 

 houses are too damp in winter, fire up a little and in the 

 summer time open your ventilators. This has been ob- 

 tained only by years of experience. Now you can tell 

 your greenhouse hands to keep it at 70 or 80 degrees as 

 you want it, just the same as you tell your fireman to keep 

 the temperature in such a house at 60 degrees. We never 

 had any intention to sell moisture gauges, but they are 

 doing us so much good we have obtained soine we can 

 sell at $2. 50 each, but we think you will want more. These 

 moisture "gauges are made in Germany and France. The 

 French machines come at Sio.oo each; they are quite an 

 ornament and no cheap truck. We will give one of the 

 S2 50 machines FREE for a S20.00 order for plants, or 

 rooted cuttings, or unrooted cuttings, from our igoi cata- 

 logue, or from our ads. in the trade papers; or we will 

 send you one for $2.50, and after 10 days' trial if you do m 



and get your money back.
