OF INTEREST TO COUNTRY 

 ESTATE OWNERS 



The National Association of Gardeners takes 

 this opportunity to place its Service Bureau at the 

 disposal of owners of country estates when requir- 

 ing competent gardeners, in the capacities of super- 

 intendents, head gardeners or assistant gardeners — 

 thoroughly qualified in every particular to assume 

 the responsibilities the positions call for — gardeners 

 truly efficient in their profession. 



The Bureau is maintained entirely at the expense 

 of the association and makes no charge to the em- 

 ployer it may serve or to the member it may benefit. 



NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF GARDENERS 



M. C. Ebel, Secretary 

 286 Fifth Ave. New York 



This association is in no sense a trade union 

 organization, but includes in its sustaining member- 

 ship owners of some of the foremost country estates 

 in America. 



IS as 



Essential as Fertilizing 



Successful cultivation demands a 

 knowledge of the habits of plant insects 

 and diseases, and the proper remedies for 

 their control. 



APHINE, an effective remedy against 

 all sap sucking insects infesting flov^'ers, 

 fruits and vegetables, is free of the dis- 

 agreeable odors and features of most in- 

 secticides. It invigorates plant life and is 

 unexcelled as a wash for decorative plants. 

 Aphine will not injure the most tender 

 flower or foliage. 



FUNGINE is an excellent remedy for 

 mildew, rust, and other blights. It is read- 

 ily soluble in water and contains no sedi- 

 ment. Fungine does not stain the foliage 

 but cleanses it. 



VERMINE is a soil sterilizer and vermi- 

 cide. It destroys cut, wire, eel and grub 

 worms, maggots, root lice and ants, and 

 will protect your gardens and lawns from 

 ravages under the soil. 



There is but one convincing way for 

 you to become familiar with the merits 

 of these products and that is to try them 

 out for yourself. It will prove worth 

 while. 



Sold by dealers in various sizes.
