npHIS is probably the 

 ^ best time of the 

 year to take up the 

 matter of new green- 

 houses, as well as addi- 

 tions to present ranges, 

 and it is for this reason 

 we suggest that you 

 write us regarding 

 your requirements. 



Remember, we are 

 greenhousemen as well 

 as manufacturers, and 

 operate our own foun- 

 dry, machine shop and 

 wood mill, which have 

 been designed, erected 

 and equipped for the 

 fabrication of green- 

 house material.

There is an EAST and EXACT way to fold 

 Dirt Bands. 



The Directions how to do this after two years 

 of experiment we reduced to 37 words and re- 

 ceived a Copyright on the Directions In 1914. 



There is no other EASY and EXACT way to 

 fold them and no one can print these Directions 

 as we have a Copyright on them. 



Our Square Paper Dirt Bands are the 

 original of all that are on the market today. 

 All others tmlng sold are Imitations of these 

 we advertise, and some of the lailtatlons being 

 sold are made of cheap paper, costing only about 

 half as much as our heavy stock. We sell no 

 erperlments. Ours have been tried out by long 

 use In the greenhouse. They will stand up In 

 any wet and beat as long as wanted. Samples

IRT BANDS— Experience in Using Them

Gentlemen: In reply to your query would state 

 that I planted seedling stock plants and snap- 

 dragon cuttings In the first lot of bands that I 

 received from you early In January. 



We took some of these out and planted them 

 where they are to remain about the 16th of 

 February. They made GOOD GROWTH while 

 In the bands, and transplanted AS THOUGH they 

 had never been moved at all. 



I have now about 14,000 carnation plants 

 started In 2-in. bands which' are making a RAPID 

 GROWTH, scarcely losing a plant In transplant- 

 ing from the sand. 



I also have abont 20,000 aster plants trans- 

 planted In 2-ln. bands which can stay there till 



time to plant out of doors WITHOUT FEAR OF 

 BEX:0M1NQ ROOT BOUND, as would be the case 

 If I used 2-ln. pots. 



Plants SELDOM BECOME ROOT BOUND 

 enough to Injure them IN THE DIRT BANDS, 

 and DO NOT REQUIRE NEAR THE AMOUNT 

 OF ATTENTION that a pot plant does, in water- 

 ing, shifting, transplanting, etc. 



I make my bands and set them In flats, aa I 

 make them up, each flat holding 117. 



When we get crowded indoors it takes but a 

 short time to move the flats to a cold frame, 

 where we harden them otT before setting them in 

 the field. 



One man can set MORE THAN ANOTHER 

 TIME AS MANY (twice as manv) plants in the 

 field from these bands and flats than he can from 

 pots, and after he Is through DOES NOT HAVE 

 THEJ BOTHER OP GATHERING UP, CLEAN- 

 ING, and STORING AWAY A LOT OP POTS. 



I believe anyone nslng these bands ONCB 

 WILL BECOME A REGULAR CUSTOMER. 

 Yours truly, 



H. B. Wearer. 



Mr. Weaver grows carnations, mignonette, 

 sweet peas, asters, etc. He ordered 6,000 Dirt 

 Bands the first year, 60,000 the second year, 

 70,000 last year and has just ordered 50,000 more 

 and a further order of 50,000.

Gentlemen: • • • We would say that we 

 used all the Paper Pots we got from you to raise 

 tomato plants. 



Our weather Is often very severe late in May. 

 therefore we have to keep them inside and we 

 were certainly very satisfied with the splendid 

 results obtained from the Paper Pots. 



In fact, WE DID NOT HAVE HALF ENOUGH 

 TO FILL OUR ORDERS. WE CHARGED EX- 

 ACTLY TWICE THE AMOUNT we did other 

 years and yet our CUSTOMERS INSISTED ON 

 HAVING THOSE IN PAPER POTS. 



In our hot sun they never wilted. 



We reserved a few for Primulas and certainly 

 have some fine ones. 



It was easier to keep them watered and grow- 

 ing during the hot months. 



Wishing you success. 



Yours truly, 



Blackadar A Co.

Gentlemen: I used some of your Paper Pots 

 last spring, which were highly satisfactory. 



I grew Roses, Salvias, Verbenas, Petunias and 

 Geraniums In the Papor Pots for retail trade. 



THEY NEARLY DOUBLED MY SALES. 



I always bad fine thrifty plants to send out and 

 I delivered them In the pots, which Insured them 

 reaching my patrons in good condition. 



I never bad a complaint of flowers dying or 

 wilting. 



I buy some of my plants, which I set right in 

 the pots. 



They are ready for delivery within a few days. 



When plants are set out there is no collecting 

 pots or watering to be done. 



I Intend to use them altogether next season. 

 Yours very truly, 



Mrs. W. T. Bart>er.

We received an order for 100,000 of our Square 

 Paper Pots from the Panama-Pacific Interna- 

 tional Exposition and one for Pots for the Forma] 

 Garden of the San Diego Exposition. 



Paper Pots are maufactured on the Pacific 

 Coast, but the Panama-Pacific International Ex- 

 position and the San Diego Expoaltlon sent across 

 the continent for ours. 



Neither of these orders were sought or solicited, 

 but came because of the National reputation of 

 our Paper Pots and Dirt Bands.
