spray better if you would have better 

 fruit — more profitable fruit. Statistics 

 prove that well-sprayed trees produce 



25 to 75 per cent more fruit and bring 



26 per cent higher prices than, un- 

 sprayed or poorly sprayed trees. Ne- 

 glected and poorly sprayed trees mean 

 small yields and stunted, rough and 

 wormy fruit. Cheap, inefficient spray- 

 ers are an expensive nuisance. 



are the world's sprayer standard. They| 

 give the utmost satisfaction under the 

 hardest conditions. Years of experience 

 prove it The Goulds way of spraying 

 is easy. The pum-p works easy and 

 evenly, the nozzles never clog but 

 spread the solution properly. The 

 agitators keep the solution well mixed 

 and the matoriale used are chemical 

 proof. Made in all types for hand or 

 power at prices to suit everyone.

Mature your crop early 

 HOW? 



The market gardener gets the top of 

 the market for early produce, and the gen- 

 eral farmer saves many dollars from early 

 frosts by using a soluble, high-grade com- 

 plete fertilizer, like one of our Stockbridge 

 manures. There is no mystery about it. 

 A crop, like a calf, will grow quicker and 

 healthier on a full ration, but the ration 

 must be right. The 



Stockbridge Manures 



offer this sort of ration for crops. 



The Stockbridge Manures 



were formulated by the lale 

 Professor Stockbridge of the 

 Massachusetts Agricultural 

 College and were introduced 

 forty years ago. They have 

 been improved and kept up-to- 

 date. The Stockbridge and 

 all the other Bowker brands 

 are soluble, active, sure. 

 They are made from the best 

 materials by special factory 

 methods. Prompt service and 

 moderate prices go with them.
