Your Best Friend! 



The Standard Thermostat 



is the best business partner and 

 friend you can have. It protects 

 your growing things from ruin by 

 sudden changes in temperatures. It 

 is infallible, inexpensive— more re- 

 liable than a night fireman. 



The Standard Thermostat will 

 ring a bell whene\er your green- 

 house temperature rises or falls to 

 the danger point. Place tlie bell 

 at your bedside or anywhere you 

 please. 



This is a word to the wise— a buy 



word to the wise grower. Sudden 



temperature ups and downs ruin 



thousands of plants every year. 



Protect yours! Install a Standard 



Thermostat now. It costs only 



$10.00. Write today.
