..AND... DIRT BANDS 



''I- bad some of your paper pots last rear. I 

 waqt more this year." — W. R. Wlsslngerv Homer 

 City, Pa; 



"We used 10,000 of your paper Dirt Bands last 

 Spr4ng and we like them. Tliey are just the thing. 

 Please give us prices on 40,000 or 50,000."— S. 

 K. Green Co;, Paris, 111. 



"Ten thousand paper pots came duly to hand. 

 We are enclosing check for 15,000 more. Kindly 

 rush them out as before." — L. A. Budlong Com- 

 pany (700-acre gardens), Chicago, 111. 



"Please ship Immediately 150,000 2-in. IMrt 

 Bands and 20,000 3-ln. dirt bands."— B. B. Dllks, 

 Philadelphia, Pa. 



"The THOROUGHLY DEPENDABLE QUAL- 

 ITY of the material in your Paper Pots com- 

 mends them to users everywhere. Tomato plants 

 which without your Pots sell here at $1.00 

 per 100, raia«d In your Pots sell at 14.00 per 100." 

 —The Dalles Floral Company, The Dalles, Ore. 



"From about 2700 Tomato plants I picked 1140 

 MARKETABLE CRATES of Tomatoes, which 

 brought me $600. "—D. B. Moses, Purchase, N. Y. 



"Tomato plants raised in the 4-Inch size sell 

 readily at FIVE CENTS EACH."— W. J. Symonda 

 & Son, Decorah, la. 



"We have used some of your Paper Pots for 

 young roses, which are doing fine." — Casa de 

 Flores Greenhouses, Corpus Chrlsti, Tex. 



"BANDS WILL GIVE BETTER PLANTS 

 THAN POTS." (Clay Pots.)— F. B. Murdock & 

 Co., Kingston, Pa. 



"We got BETTER PLANTS. BIGGER PLANTS 

 AND PLANTS WHICH WERE HEALTHIER 

 AND MORE VIGOROUS THAN IN CLAY POTS." 

 — Wm. Schruers, Gardener, Oil City, Fa. 



"We find that WATERING ALONE SAVES 

 TIME ENOUGH TO PAY OVER CLAY POTS, 

 and with proper handling there Is NO QUESTION 

 BUT A BETTER PLANT CAN BE GROWN."— 

 H. Russell & Son, Market Gardeners, Boonville, 

 New York, 



"I find them SUPERIOR TO EARTHEN POTS 

 IN EVERY CASE, requiring about half the water 

 —at least that Is the case after the sun gets 

 well back and very drying." — W. L. Leeka, Fair- 

 mount, 111. 



*'We grew Tomato plants and Chrysanthemum 

 plants in your Dirt Bands last year and they 

 proved VERY SATISFACTORY AND CHEAP, A 

 GREAT SAVING OVER CLAY POTS."— L. M. 

 Smith & Co., Laurel Greenhouses, Laurel, Del. 



"They do not dry out as fast as clay pots and 

 MAKE BETTER PLANTS in the same length of 

 time. They hold the plants longer In fine condi- 

 tion without getting yellow than clay pots. They 

 are also better for shipping plants, as they are 

 light and pack better than clay pots." — Evan R. 

 Miller, Florist, Bridgeton, N. J. 



"All worked very satisfactorily and they DO 

 NOT REQUIRE THE ATTENTION THAT 

 S.MALL POTS DO. We certainly like Dirt 

 Bands."— Relmers Bros., Rapid City, S. D. 



"We are MUCH IMPRESSED WITH THE 

 FACT that Paper Pots give so much more root 

 space than other pots." — Gallup Bros., Ashtabula, 

 Ohio.

 matoes grown SINCE I HAVE BEEN IN THE 

 BD8INESS."— J. M. Gage, Market Gardener, WU-

 GREAT SUCCESS. I had an IMMENSE CROP 

 of both tomatoes and cucumbers and both started 

 picking fully 15 DAYS BEFORE THE USUAL 

 TIME in this section."— Chas. H. Weaver (Choice 

 Fruit and Vegetables), Dunnville, Ont., Can. 



"I used your Dirt Bands for tomatoes, peppers 

 and eggplants — also for mignonette, heliotrope 

 and hcllehrysum. I AND MY TRADE WERE 

 PLEASED WITH THEM. 1 shall use more the 

 coming season." — Chas. C. Roberts, Lansdowne, 

 Pa. 



"We highly recommend your Dirt Bands. We 

 had tomatoes the FIRST OF JUNE, and the only 

 tomatoes In Kay Co., Okla., this year, DUE EN- 

 TIRELY to using your Dirt Bands and getting 

 them out early." — Nichols & Son, Market Garden- 

 ers, Blackwell, Okla. 



"We raised vegetable plants and asters In your 

 Paper Pots. They accomplished their purpose. 

 They gave BETTER PLANTS THAN THOSE IN 

 CLAY POTS AND SOLD AT DOUBLE PRICE.'.' 

 — Mt. Gllead Floral Co., Mt. Gllead, O. 



"There is abundance and famine, prosperity and 

 adversity. What the first mentioned is to the 

 latter so are Square Paper Pots to the clay va- 

 riety. The better results obtainable and the 

 ADVANTAGES OVER THE CI.AY POTS are due 

 lo the fact of their shape allowing the roots to 

 xpear out, instead of becoming cramped. They 

 are a good thing for the grower." — George F. 

 Braybon, Kent, O. 



"We used about 3000 of your Dirt Bands last 

 year. We think they are great. Plants grew fine 

 III them." — West View Greenhouses, Knights-

 Bands PAID ME THE BEST of any crop of to- 

 matoes grown SINCE I HAVE BEEN IN BUSI- 

 NESS."— J. M. Gager, Market Gardener, Wllll- 

 mantic, Conn.
