TOMATO 

 SUPPORTS 



This model V 

 support made 

 of No. 6 Gal- 

 vanized wire 

 with three 

 rings is the 

 very best 

 support for 

 tomatoes. 

 Height 3 ft. 

 11 in. Width 

 16 in. 



Made of 

 Galvanized 

 Wire, will 

 not rust or 

 harbor 

 insects. 



Tomato Vines 



properly supported will yield a much 

 larger and healthier crop. The grow- 

 ing strength of the plants is thrown 

 into the tomatoes themselves where 

 the vines are relieved of the strain of 

 self support. The fruit and foliage is 

 so heavy that the vines break and fall 

 before the green tomatoes mature, 

 unless properly supported. 



We manufacture supports for all 

 kinds of growing plants.

WHEN IT'S JUNE 

 YOU FORGET THE GREENHOUSE 



Forget that the balmy days with all their flower joys— all the fun 

 of digging in your own garden so full of promise, will all too 

 soon be a thing of the past. That in a few short months the 

 garden becomes a dreary waste ; that wintry blasts will bring 

 longings for other climes where you could have your favorite 

 flowers all the year 'round. But why not anticipate all these 

 things and have them right at your very door-step with one of 

 our glass enclosed Winter Gardens? We build them, bench 

 them, ventilate and heat them complete, and now is just the time 

 to talk it over with us, so things can be well started and the plants 

 in bloom, leaving no gaps between the outdoor and winter 

 garden's flowering. September is the time to start your tomatoes 

 and cucumbers for Christmas; so it gives us none too much time 

 to plan and erect your house. That is why we want to talk it 

 over with you right now. Write us, or if within our reach, we 

 will gladly come and look over your ground with you and 

 endeavor to suggest the right thing for your particular wants. 



In the meantime send for catalog, "Two P's," which 

 shows four greenhouses that may help you to decide.
