GREENLEAF 



GARDEN HOSE, 



The betterness of 

 "Greenleaf" over ordin- 

 ary garden hose is much 

 more than theusual super- 

 iority of standard articles 

 over less dependable 

 grades. 



The finest rubber and four | 

 plies of the strongest cotton 1 

 fabrics, tightly woven, are your 

 assurances that " Greenleaf " 

 hose will not develop wee 

 leaks, then crack and peel — m 

 and become worthless after a "' 

 few months' service as is the case 

 .with hose in general. 



If your dealer tells you he hasn't 

 "Greenleaf" don't take an unknown, 

 unreliable brand. Send $ 1 direct to 

 us and we will express prepaid 50 feet ^ 

 "Greenleaf" hose with standard nozzle j 

 and coupling.

The Decay of Wood 



is due to bacteria — just as cholera and smallpox and other ills that vex our flesh are due 

 to bacteria. So long as the bacteria are excluded, wood cannot decay. Good paint 

 excludes the bacteria that produce decay- So long as a building is properly protected 

 by good paint, it will remain sound and firm. Paints that protect longest and most thor- 

 oughly are based on Oxide of Zinc. See that your paint is that kind. 



Our pamphlet, "Paint: Why, How and When" (free to property owners), 

 explains the matter.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT 



FORESTRY AND IRRIGATION 



The Monthly Magazine of the 

 American Forestry Association? 



It is devoted to those two questions which most vitally affect the future welfare of 

 all of our people, and which are least understood by them. 



"The preservation of the forests is vital to the welfare of every country.' 



"You are mighty poor Americans if your care for the well being of this country is limited to hoping that that well being will last out your 

 own generation." PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. 



"Forestry is not a local question. It is as wide as American jurisdiction. It is not a class question ; it affects everybody." 



JAMES WILSON, Secretary of Agriculture. 



" Irrigation and Forestry are the two subjects which are to have a greater effect on the future prosperity of the United States than any other 

 public questions, either within or without Congress." JAMES J. HILL. 



In Forestry and Irrigation you will find articles each month of greatest importance 

 to you, your family, your business and your home. It is devoted to the perpetuation of 

 our natural resources through intelligent use. Every person should read it. Every tax- 

 payer should study it.
