"I had some of your paper pots last year. I 

 want more this year." — W. K. Wissinger, Homer 

 City, Pa. "We used 10,000 of your paper Dirt 

 Bauds last spring and we like them. They are 

 Just the thing. Please give us prices on 40,000 

 or 50.(K)0."— S. K. Green Co., Paris, 111. "Ten 

 thnuKflnd paper pots came duly to hand. We are 

 inclosing check for 15.000 more. Kindly rush 

 them out as before." — L. A. Budlong Company 

 (700 acre gardens), Chicago, 111. "Please ship 

 InimedlHtely 150,000 2-ln. dirt bands and 20,000 

 3-in. dirt bands."— P. B. Dllks. Philadelphia, Pa. 

 "Could you ship me by freight at once 15.000 more 

 2-in. Dirt Bauds and 5000 3-in. Dirt Bands? I like 

 them very much."— H. B. Weaver, BIrd-in-Hand, 

 Pa. (Mr. Weaver grows Carnations, Mignonettes. 

 Sweet Peas and Cut Flowers. He got 5000 2-ln. 

 Dirt Bands in December and 40,000 In January.) 



The following letter was received from Mr.

 of our Dirt Bands:

Gentlemen: — In reply to your query would 

 state tliat I planted seedling stock plants and 

 snapdragon cuttings in the first lot of bands that 

 I received from you early In January. We took 

 some of them out and planted them where they 

 are to remain about the 15th of Ftbrnary. They 

 made a good growth while In the bands, and 

 tran8plante<l as though they bad never been 

 moved at all. 



I have now about 14,000 carnation plants 

 started in 2-Inch bands, which are making a 

 rapid growth, scarcely losing a plant in trani- 

 planting from the sand. 



I also have about 20,000 aster plants trans- 

 planted in 2-in. bands, which can stay there till 

 time to plant out of doors without fear of be- 

 coming 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 watering, shifting, trans- 

 planting, etc. 



I make my bands and set them In flats, as 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 off before setting them In the field. 



One man can set more than another time as 

 many plants In the field from these hands and 

 flats than be can from pots, and after he is 

 through he does not have the bother with gather- 

 ing up. cleaning and storing away a lot of pots. 



I believe anyone using the bands once will 

 become a regular customer. 



Tours truly, H. B. Weaver.
