THE Experienced Fruit Grower is the man 

 who realizes the importance of using only 

 high-class Sprayers. He knows that spraying is 

 what you make it — a hard job or an easy prop- 

 osition, depending on the outfit. Most Grow- 

 ers have learned that it doesn't pay to bother 

 with cheap ones. Goulds' Sprayers have a rep- 

 utation to maintain. They comprise a line of 



Over 25 Styles 



for both Hand and Power — all simple — all 

 working parts brass to withstand wear and the 

 chemical action of the solutions. Don't be 

 caught experimenting with a cheap sprayer — see 

 that the name Goulds is cast on the pump. Its 

 presence is the assurance you are buying the 

 very best Sprayer made. It guarantees satis- 

 faction and reliability. Write for our book.

23 Bushels from 

 One Pound of 

 These Potatoes 



One cus- 

 tomer plant- 

 ed a pound of 

 our potatoes and 

 the second year 

 raised 23 bushels of 

 the best potatoes in the 

 district. It took years to 

 get our several varieties to 

 their present state of perfec- 

 tion, giving more and better pota- 

 toes to the acre than any kind you can 

 plant. We have done the same with our 

 peas and beans — they are without equal 

 forquality and yield. All our field. vegetable 

 and flower seeds are hardy, Northern grown.

An Authority 

 on Decoration 



O a property-owner who expects to spend this 

 spring from $40 to $1,000 on a piece of home 

 decorating, exterior or interior, our "Dutch 

 Boy Paint Adviser No.' V," though free, is 

 worth at least an expert adviser's fee — say 

 five per cent, of the expected expenditure. 

 CJWe have one reserved, free, -for every 

 property-owner who wants practical, authori- 

 tative directions and suggestions on the selec- 

 tions of harmonious colors, shrubbery 

 arrangement for outside, drapery and rugs for 

 interior, and the proper mixing and use of 

 white lead and linseed oil for painting various 

 surfaces. 



1^ No property owner can afford to permit the 

 use of anything but the best in building or 

 decorating his home. Arguments for inferior 

 substitutes sometimes seem plausible, but in 

 practice the genuine — the standard — thing is the cheapest in 

 the end. Paint made of pure white lead and pure linseed oil 

 remains the reliable paint. Ask your painter if this isn't so. 

 <$ Old patrons as well as new are requested to note that our 

 white lead is now packed in steel kegs, dark gun-metal finish, 

 instead of oak kegs as heretofore. The Dutch Boy Painter 

 trade mark is on the side of these new kegs, as of the old, 

 and is your guaranty that you are getting our pure white lead. 



The Dutch Boy Paint Adviser No.V is free to anyone 

 contemplating painting or decorating of any kind. Address

"Quilt" — the Warmest Sheathing 



Wind and Frost Proof 



NOT a mere felt or paper, but a matted lining 

 that keeps out the cold as a bird's feathers 

 do. Six times as warm as the best papers, and 

 warmer and cheaper than back-plaster. Costs 

 less than ic. a foot. Keeps warm rooms warm 

 and cool rooms cool, "ft is cheaper to build warm 

 houses than to heat cold ones."
