Wear and Weather Don’t 
Hurt Empire Red Hose 
Most hose should be labeled “handle 
with care,” for that’s the way you have 
to treat it; but it soon kinks and rots and 
springs leaks in spite of you. 
An Empire Hose will never bother you 
that way. It’s better constructed of bet- 
ter rubber than common hose. This 
rubber is Empire Red Rubber, which has 
made such a big hit with motorists who 
use Empire Red Tires.

Decay is negligible in Empire Red Hose 
because the red rubber contains no active 
chemicals. Neither use nor storage lessens the 
service of Empire Red Hose. It doesn’t kink 
or crack, dry or rot, and it is not affected by 
sun or water. There is nothing in the rubber 
to start or help disintegration. 
Note the heavy corrugations that protect the 
hose from wear and tear when going around 
trees and sharp corners and over rough ground. 
Be sure you get Empire Red Hose. No other 
hose is like it. You have to pay alittle more 
than for most hose, but you could pay twice as 
much and still find Empire Red Hose economi- 
cal. If not at your dealer’s, write us.

Lawn Mist—A New Sprinkler 
There is a right and wrong way to water grass. This 
Lawn Mist is one of the right ways. Of first importance, 
it waters wniformly 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. 
It can be used on a newly made lawn without danger 
of washing out seeds or injuring tenderest 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.
