The Business End of 

 Your Irrigation System 



No sprinkler is better than its noz- 

 zles. The best nozzles are those that 

 break up the water streams in most 

 thorough fashion. And the Empire 

 system brings you nozzles the like of 

 which have heretofore been unobtain- 

 able to the broad public. 



All Empire Sprinklers 



are Equipped with Special 



Empire Nozzles 



There are three types, as described below. 

 The Empire Rotary is shown in action. Every 

 Empire Sprinkler is of most substantial construc- 

 tion, guaranteed to do thorough work for many 

 years. 



Empire Midget — portable and compact, solid brass nozzle, 

 having forty-seven holes. Sprinkles 50-foot circle. Inside 

 the nozzle a strainer prevents outlets from clogging. Weight, 

 two pounds. Price $2.50 F. O. B. New York City. 



Empire Adjustable — This sprinkler embodies a new idea 

 in irrigation; that of having two nozzles on adjustable arms 

 to be set to throw at one time two fanshaped sprays in any 

 direction. Each of the two nozzles will throw a spray to 

 cover 40 feet. By turning the arms in opposite directions, 

 the spray will cover 80 feet. Height, two feet. Weight six 

 pounds. Price, $6.25 F. O. B. New York City. 



Empire Rotary — This is universally adjustable — its arms, 

 its nozzles, its direction, the height of its throw, can all be 

 adjusted. Will cover evenly a 75-foot circle. By pointing 

 the nozzle upward, you can restrict the area. Simple ad- 

 justment changes the spray from a rotary to a stationary. 

 AH essential parts are of the best brass. Rust proof, hand- 

 some finish, strainer in each nozzle, can not get out of order. 

 Height 22 inches, weight ten pounds. Price $10.00 F. O. B. 

 New York City.

I Think it's Time to 

 Think of Peonies! 



Make your slogan for fall work: — Plant more Peonies! 

 It's been my own for nearly half a century and I have 

 never regretted it. Five hundred distinct sorts I am grow- 

 ing now! Too many, many of you will say, "Yes, but they 

 are like children. The more you have, the more you love 

 them and which would you give up?" 

 So please let's get together on the subject of PEONIES. 

 The first step is to get a copy of my free catalogue — please 

 ask for it. For those in search of rare kinds I offer one 

 eye divisions at a reduced price.

When August Comes— Be Ready!

W. L. GUMM, 



REMINGTON, IND. 



Half the success of garden enterprise is due to correct preparations, the other 

 half to proper planting at the right time ! This holds particularly true of Coni- 

 ferous Evergreens including Firs, Spruces, Hemlocks and Pines; Yews and Juni- 

 pers; Rhododendrons, Kalmias, Leucothoe, and like ericaceous evergreens. August 

 and early September have proved to be the best time for transplanting Evergreens. 

 Why? It's the season of root growth.
