When You Go to Philadelphia 



AND DREER'S PI«ACE AT RIVERTON, DON'T FAIL TO SEE THE 



SKINNER IRRIGATION SYSTEM 



in operation, and ask their opinion of it. The first and best system for either inside or outside work. 



Mil. C. W. Skinner, Troy, O. Dear Slr-The enclosed cut ehowa the Skinner Mechanical Watering' System at work under a pressure of 60 

 pounds or over. It shows a very flne spray like a mist. The perforated pipe working on a brass union can be turned In any direction and thus 

 everything Is watered evenly. It never bakes the ground and waters much more evenly tban would be possible In hand watering. In fact, I don't 

 see how It could be Improved on. We ai*e watering some three acres outside and will ht up a range of glass for Inside watering. Will report 

 later. Some of the market gardens around here are watering & acres and are well pleased. Very truly, T. C. Jot, Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 20, 1906. 



Mb. C. W. Skinneh, Troy, O. Dear Sir— Tour system of Irrigation Installed on our gardens three years ago has given us entire satisfaction, 

 bringing us 1300.00 a year more than previous years, which alone would more than pay for the entire system. For the last two years we have been 

 putting out cabbage three weeks earlier than usual and both years have been caught In several freezes with temperature of 20 degress, but with 

 the aid of the Skinner System, using warm water, pumping It all night, we saved our crop from total loss while our nefyhborlng gardens lost 

 entire crops valued from KOO.OO to $600.60, while we gained the profit through the Skinner system. Also tomatoes, beans, SQUash, were all pro- 

 tected. We don't believe we could grow a crop of lettuce indoors without the Skinner System. In short we would not do without it for four times 

 the cost. We will gladly show any one Interested your System at our gardens. Yours truly, Arnold Schmid h Son, Nashville, Teim., Aug. 20, 1906.
