THE "AUTO-SPRAY" 



DOES THOROUGH WORK 

 QUICKLY AND EASILY 



because it has more power than any other 

 hand sprayer made. That also gives it a wider 

 range of usefulness than any other small 

 sprayer. Yet it is the easiest sprayer in the 

 world to operate. 15 seconds' work at plunger 

 charges it with enough power to throw the 

 spray for 10 minutes. 



The tank holds three gallons of solution 

 and one of compressed air, and two pump- 

 ings discharges the whole contents. Our 

 Auto-Pop Nozzle, controlled by one finger, 

 regulates the spray from a stream to a fine 

 mist. 



Conveniently carried over the shoulder by 

 a strap. All working parts of brass, no rust- 

 ing, no clogging of nozzle, nothing to get out 

 of order or cause trouble. Let us tell you 

 what our customers think of it. We make 



ALL SIZES OF SPRAYERS 

 for all purposes, and guarantee every sprayer 

 to prove satisfactory or money will be re- 

 funded. Tell us what you want to accom- 

 plish and we will suggest the right style for 

 you to use.

A Charming Wild Garden 



with its dainty wild Ferns, 

 Lady Slippers, Wood Violets, 

 Trilliums and other wild 

 flowers of woodland and 

 meadow will bring rare de- 

 light to your grounds. 



The wild flowers of the 

 woods that you love you can 

 grow in the dark, shadyplaces 

 of your garden, and the 

 flowers of the meadow will 

 thrive in open sun. 



We have special collections 

 of Ferns for dark shadyplaces 

 and rockeries. Dainty Gen- 

 tians and Lobelias for plant- 

 ing by brooksides. 

 For twenty-five years we have studied the habits of wild 

 flowers and have imitated their natural conditions of growth in 

 our nurseries as near as possible so that they are preserved here 

 in all their beauty. Grown in cold New England, they are 

 perfectly hardy. 



Let us help you in your selection. We also grow the old garden 

 sorts of Hardy Perennials like Foxgloves, Larkspurs, Lilies, 

 garden Heliotrope, etc., and the best Shrubs suited for this 

 climate, including several adapted for dark, shady places ; several 

 are particularly useful in hedgework, like Japanese Berberis, 

 Rosa rugosa and California Privet. 



Send for our illustrated descriptive catalogue of over 

 50 pages, which tells much about this class of plants.
