Protect Your Plants 



I.NSURB YOURSELF against loss by excessive heat or cold 

 by using a Standard Recording Thermometer. It )<eeps a 

 daily or weekly record and sliows at a glanc-e what the tem- 

 perature of your house has been any hour of the day or night. 

 It should be in the greenhouse of every grower as refereure to 

 it may often tell what is wrong with a liatfli of plants. 



The actuating element of the Standard Recording Thermom- 

 eter is of lamina metal which, besides being extremely sensitive 

 to temperature changes, is practically indestructible. Record 

 charts are furnished either daily or weelily. and the whole 

 mechanism is contained in an attactive metal case fitted with 

 lock and key. which insures the record from being tampered 

 with. The clock movement is of extremely high grade; every- 

 thing about the instrument is up to the highest possible standard 

 of manufacture.
