Small Evergreens 

 For Sale 



WHAT might well be called 

 our bargain offer, is 1,000 

 small trees for $10.00. You 

 can plant them in the grass just 

 where you want them, or in rows in 

 your vegetable garden, being your 

 own nurseryman, and year by year 

 as they grow to the size you want, 

 transplant them. 



If you want the larger trees, we 

 have them in various sizes, up to 15 

 or 20 feet high. 



To assure yourself of the kind of 

 trees we grow, look at the white 

 spruce in the illustration. It is one 

 foot high, has a splendid top and the 

 innumerable flexible roots that are 

 the essential requirement for success 

 in transplanting. Whether the tree 

 be large or small, we carefully pre- 

 serve the roots just the'same. That 

 is one of the reasons why Hicks' 

 Trees live. 



Come to our Nursery if you can 

 and pick out just the trees you want, 

 or order direct from our catalog, and 

 we will take particular pains to see 

 that everything is satisfactory. If it 

 fails to be, we will gladly make it so. 



Send for the catalog, whether you 

 are ready to buy right now or not.

'WATER WITCH' 



Fill the Roller With Water and 

 Get ANY Weight You Want 



Just fill the hollow drum of the "Water Witch" with water 



or sand — use a hose or bucket and funnel. Make the weight 



JUST RIGHT for a soft and wet lawn, or a how a 



hard, dry lawn — anywhere from 115 lbs. 



to 970 lbs., according to the amount of 



water or sand you use. j) ^ater%Ta T nd 



Wilder's "Water Witch" 



is the most convenient of garden tools. It runs easily with the heaviest ballast. Don't crack 

 your walks by crossing them with a heavy roller. The "Water Witch" can be emptied in a jiffy 

 — and filled as quickly. Dump out the ballast and the roller is easily lifted. 



What's the use of a heavy, clumsy solid iron or cement roller that costs 

 more to buy and ship; that is so heavy that only a strong man can run it; 

 that is generally too heavy or too light to do your lawn the most good — that 

 is in every respect unsatisfactory? Remember that a difference of fifty 

 pounds in the weight of a roller may mean success or ruin to your lawn '' 



that a half ton roller will spoil a lawn in early spring — a 200 lb. 

 roller is too light for summer work. 



Avoid a patchy or rank lawn by rolling it RIGHT 

 I he cheapest, easiest and most convenient way is with 

 a "Water Witch." 



FOR A GARDEN ROLLER, the "Water Witch" 

 is just the thing — can be made light enough for 

 flower beds, shrubbery or general truck gardens. In ' ^s? 



short, it's a DOZEN ROLLERS IN ONE. '' C SPV
