DWARF FRUIT TREE TRELLISES 



ARBORS, GARDEN ARCHES, FENCES, GATES 



The Espaliers and Trellises illustrated here are the most perfect form of 

 supports for trained fruit trees and vines. They combine neatness with the 

 requisite strength and give the garden a trim appearance. 



The Wall Espalier is constructed of steel upright supports, on which 

 are bolted arms with pointed ends so that they can be driven into the seams of 

 the wall between the bricks, thus insuring rigidity and strength. The wires 

 are kept taut by means of ratchets at the ends of the Trellis. 



The Trellis illustrated below is built with heavy galvanized anchor posts 

 and pip< top rail. The same construction as in the Wall Espalier is arranged 



for keeping taut 

 the wires. 



Send for our illus- 

 trated catalog No. 29

 tail, also ourWrought

NEW YORK CITY 



The One Perfect Spray Pump 



AUTO SPRAY No. 



for hand work. Free your trees and 

 vines of injurious insects by use of 

 the Auto-Spray No. i, and the yield 

 of apples, peaches, cherries, pears, 

 grapes, currants, etc., will be largely 

 increased. The Auto-Spray No. i 

 is a 4-gallon cylinder of brass, 2 feet 

 high and 7 inches in diameter, to 

 which is attached a three-ply extra 

 quality rubber hose with nozzle. 

 Inside the brass cylinder is a solid 

 brass air pump, simple in construc- 

 tion and practically indestructable. 

 Just a few strokes of the piston be- 

 fore starting out compresses enough 

 air in the cylinder to force out 

 through the nozzle all the solution 

 when the valve is open. Our patent 

 valve is called the Auto-Pop, and 

 with it the operator absolutely con- 

 trols the amount of solution being 

 used, at the same time automatically 

 keeping the nozzle clean so it can't 

 possibly clog. 



We manufacture the largest of hand or power prayers in America — em- 

 bracing everything from hand atomizers to power sprayers for use on largest 

 trees. Let us send you our free catalog and a copy of the most comprehen- 

 sive spraying calendar ever issued.

NOTHING will make the 

 Home Grounds so cheerful, 

 attractive and interesting, at 

 low cost, as Hardy Herbaceous Plants, yielding as they do, a wealth of 

 flowers of an almost endless variety of form and color from early spring 

 until late autumn — not only during the first year but for many years — from 

 a single planting, and increasing in beauty as the years pass by. They 

 flourish in almost every soil, need but little care, and it requires no special 

 knowledge to succeed with them. That those who have never ordered of
