Tern Mist—A New Samakler 
There is a right and wrong way to water grass. This 
Lawn Mist is one of the right ways. Of first importance, 
it waters uniformly and waters thoroughly. So fine is the 
spray, that the ground absorbs it as fast as it falls, caus- 
ing it to sink deep down into the soil; consequently in- 
ducing the much sought for deep root development. 
Tt can be used on a newly made lawn without danger 
of washing out seeds or injuring ten- 
derest new growth. 
Will water 400 square feet at a time. 
Equipped with wheel truck for easy 
moving about. 
You can water around a corner by 
connecting two lengths, as shown at 
eft. 
Nozzle clusters are brass. Pipe is 
galvanized. 
Use it in your garden as well 
as on your lawn. 
For full description and 
prices, send for Lawn Mist 
Booklet.

Ideal refrigeration requires one hundred per cent 
perfection in FOUR POINTS: 
(1)—Cleanliness (3)—Coldness—or 
(2)—A scientifically correct low temperature 
circulation of Dry Air  (4)—Ice Conservation 
Some refrigerators have a high percentage in 
some Of these points. But the high average in 
all four poinés goes to the 
“Monroe” Refrigerator 
Cleanliness is assured by the “‘Monroe’s’’ solid one-piece 
porcelain food compartments—all corners rounded. No 
metal to corrode. No enamel to chip. Not a single 
crack, crevice or corner to harbor dirt or germs. Easy 
to clean and keep clean. Circulation of cold dry air 
is secured by features scientifically installed. 
Low temperatures are obtained by heavy and high class 
insulation — tight-fitting doors and automatic locks 
which prevent leakage of cold air, 
All these things mean ice conservation and small ice cost. * 
The “Monroe” is not sold in stores. We ship it from 
actory — freight prepaid —on 
30 days’ trial.

Send for your copy to-day 
Don’t plan your garden—don’t buy a single thing until you 
have seen this catalog! 
Mail the coupon below or send a postal. Look over the cat- 
alog—page after page of imported bulbs—the very flowers you 
want, at prices lower than you have ever before been able to 
obtain. Learn how you can have, this season, the very garden 
you have always wanted! 
European demand curtailed—prices drop 
Heretofore, Holland Bulbs have been eagerly bought up in 
European markets. This year, the market for bulbs in Europe 
is materially curtailed. The demand is 50% less, and the Dutch 
growers are looking to the American market to take their bulbs. 
The prices have naturally dropped lower than heretofore. 
For years we have ordered bulbs from the Dutch growers. 
We visit Holland frequently and know them personally. Our 
connections with them are so close that it is possible for us to 
get even lower prices than you can secure elsewhere. 
In our catalog, we explzin how we have arranged with them so 
that the bulbs are packed by them and forwarded to you as soon 
as they reach thiscountry. This means that bulbs ordered from 
this catalog now cost you about half what the same high grade 
bulbs would cost if bought through the ordinary middleman. 
Direct from specialists 
Our connections abroad make it possible for us to buy bulbs 
from the best specialist of that variety. Every bulb shown in 
the catalog you get direct from growers who have made a 
life study of the flowers they grow; thus you are assured 
bulbs of the first quality. 
Special prices good only until July 1— 
Order now—pay when delivered 
To take advantage of the very low prices offered in this cat- 
alog, we must have your order not later than July 1st, as 
we import bulbs to order only. They need not be paid for 
until after delivery, nor taken if not of a satisfactory quality.
