The Directlona how to do tbia after two yeara

Gentlemen: In reply to yonr query would atate 

 that I planted seedling atock planta and anap- 

 dragon cuttings In the first lot of banda that I 

 received from you early In January. 



We took some of these ont and planted them 

 where they are to remain abont the 16th of 

 Febrnary. Tbey made GOOD GROWTH while 

 in the t>ands, and transplanted AS THOUGH they 

 bad never l>een moved at all. 



I have now about 14,000 camatloB planta 

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

 GROWTH, scarcely losing a plant in tranaplant- 



ing from the aand. 



_ alao have abont 20,000 aster planta trana- 

 planted in 2-in. banda which can stay there till 



time to plant ont of doors WITHOUT FEAR OF 

 BECOMING ROOT BOUND, aa would be the caae 

 If I need 2-ln. pots. 



Planta SELDOM BECOME ROOT BOUND 

 enough to inJnre them IN THE DIRT BANDS, 

 and DO NOT REQUIRE NEAR THE AMOUNT 

 or ATTENTION that a pot plant does, in water- 

 ing, shifting, transplanting, etc. 



I make my bands and set them in data, as I 

 make them np, each flat holding 117. 



When we get crowded indoors it takea bnt a 

 short time to move the flats to a cold frame, 

 where we harden them oS before aettlng them in 

 the field. 



One man can set MORE THAN ANOTHER 

 TIME AS MANY (twice aa many) planta in the 

 field from these banda and flats than he can from 

 pota, and after he Is through DOBS NOT HAVE 

 THE BOTHER OF GATHERING UP, CLEAN- 

 ING, and STORING AWAY A LOT OF POTS. 



I l>elleve anyone using these banda ONOB 

 WILL BECOME A REGULAR CUSTOMER. 

 Yonra truly, 



H. B. Wearer. 



Mr. Wearer growa camatlona, mignonette, 

 aweet peaa, aatera, etc. He ordered 6,000 Dirt 

 Bands the first year. 60,000 the aecond year, 

 70,000 last year and haa Juat ordered 60,000 more 

 and a further order of 60,000.

(Gentlemen: • • • We would say that we 

 used all the Paper Pota we got from you to raiae 

 tomato planta. 



Our weather la often very severe late in May, 

 therefore we have to keep them inside and we 

 were certainly very satisfied with ttie 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 

 yeara and yet onr CUSTOMERS INSISTED ON 

 HAVING THOSE IN PAPER POTS. 



In our hot sun tbey never wilted. 



We reeerved a few for Primulaa and certainly 

 have aome fine onea. 



It waa easier to keep them watered and grow- 

 ingdnring the hot montha. 



Wishing yon success. 



Yours truly.

Gentlemeil: I used some of your Paper Pota 

 last spring, which were highly aattsfaetory. 



I grew Roses, Salvlaa, ^erbenaa. Petnnlaa and 

 Geraninma in the Paper Pota for retail trade. 



THEY NEARLY DOUBLED MY SALES. 



I alwaya had fine thrifty planta to send out and 

 I delivered them in the pota. which inaured them 

 reaching my patrons in good condition. 



I never had a complaint of fiowera dying or 

 wilting. 



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

 the pota. 



They are ready for delivery within a few daya. 



When planta are set out there ia no collecting 

 pots or watering to be done. 



I Intend to nse them altogether next aeaaon. 

 Yonra very truly,
