 Beautiful 



requires proper care and cultivation but equally depends 

 upon intelligent selection of varieties and harmonious 

 design in planting. Neglect of any of these points will 

 give a garden lacking in some element of beauty. We 

 make a specialty of Designs for Suburban Grounds and 

 have furnished plans for many of the most beautiful 

 places near New York City. Planting designs we sup- 

 ply to distant customers uniformly give complete satis- 

 faction — they are practical and easy of application. 



THE HARDY GARDEN FLOWERS

 hardy garden this fall, with stock and a planting plan

EVERY GARDENER Needs This Practical Grinder 



Sharp Implements and Tools will Save Half Your Troubles. 



Let us tell you how to settle the dull 

 tool and dull knife business. You want to 

 know about this little convenient grinder 

 that will screw on to any table or bench. 

 It will pay for itself over and over again in 

 time saved, to say nothing of your daily

It sharpens implements, tools, knives,

 grindstone. It doesn't take the temper out 

 either, and any one can use it. 



Hold the tool or knife on the wheel 

 lightly, turn and it will be sharp in one 

 minute. Nothing to get out of order, no 

 water necessary, no chain to buckle or 

 belt to break.

 Practical Grinders, will explain why. A
