Rain When "Vbu Want It 



The American doughboys are marveling at this French gar- 

 dener. He gets the results — but just see how he does it! 



If it pays the Frenchman to water by hand; it will pay you 

 infinitely more to water with the Skinner System. So simple, 

 a child can operate it. A gentle rain at your will. Great 

 labor saver — greater crop producer. Intensely practical for 

 the great estate and the small home garden. We build them 

 to fit. Easy to put in. 



Write for catalogue of unusual interest. If you care to, men- 

 tion size of garden. By the way, we water flower and vege- 

 table gardens, lawns, golf courses, polo fields and greenhouses.
