KIRKE SYSTEM 



Destroys Insects and Fertilizes 

 While Watering 



Not necessary now to fill 

 spray-pumps and work 

 pump handles while 

 spraying. Your garden 

 faucet is your pump. 



You simply attach a 

 "Kirke" Feeder (Cart- 

 ridge Holder) to your 

 faucet, couple the hose 

 to the other end of the 

 Feeder and spray as in 

 watering. 



A Cartridge is placed in 

 the Feeder of whatever 

 material it is desired to 

 use. 



The "Kirke" Feeder 

 is self-operating. No 

 mixtures to be made. 



It is a combination of 

 spraying and fertilizing 

 apparatus, and so in- 

 expensive. 



Not alone does the 

 "Kirke" system replace 

 the cumbersome spray- 

 pumps. It does away 

 with the exceedingly 

 objectionable manure 

 heap, with its flies, 

 weed-seeds and myriads 

 of germs. 



You can also "Fertilize 

 While Watering," 



thereby making it pos- 

 sible to nourish your 

 plants continuously 

 with this clean system. 



Destroy insects that 

 infest stalls, kennels, 

 coops, etc., by use of 

 "Kirke" Disinfectant. 



FOB THOSE WHO DO NOT USE A HOSE: 



"Kirke" Fertilizer also made in tablet form for Sprinkling Cans. 



'Fertilize While Sprinkling 1 .' 



Now is the time to in- 

 sure against the ravages 

 of the insect hordes. 



Delay means regret. 



Do it now and enjoy an 

 abundant harvest, a 

 beautiful lawn, or a 

 luxuriant floral display.
