DUTCH 



BULBS 



HKRK is no more useful garden 

 terial than what are known as Dv 

 Bulbs, Hyacinths, Tulips, Narc 

 Crocus, etc. They give for a small ou 

 of time and money an abundance 

 flowers in the house from December 

 April, and in the garden almost befo 

 " the snow is off the ground in the spri 



until the middle of May. 



From NOW until July 1st -NOT LATER 



These bulbs are grown al- 

 most e\clusively in Holland 

 d in enormous quantities, 

 where they are sold at very low 

 prices. Usually they pass through the hands of two dealers, 

 and more than double in price before reaching the retail 

 buyer in America. By ordering from us now instead of 

 waiting until fall, you make a large saving in cost, get 

 a superior quality of Bulbs not usually to be obtained 

 at any price in this country, and have s much larger list 

 of varieties to select from.

Does Away with the Ice Man 



The dirt and muss caused by periodical icing can be entirely eliminated by 

 the J-M Method of Refrigeration. This method produces a dryer and a lower 

 temperature than is possible with ice. And it eliminates the objectionable 

 refrigerator odor and keeps the food firmer, crisper, fresher and more inviting. 



J-M REFRIGERATION 



(Using the Audiffren-Singrun Machine) 



will produce a refrigerating effect equal to 16 lbs. of ice per hour or can also 

 be used for making ice. Smallest machine has capacity of n lbs. per hour. 



It is the only simple, practical and efficient small capacity refrigerating 

 machine. All working parts are hermetically sealed in a steel shell. Has 

 no parts that can get out of order. Its operation is simplicity itself — one 

 motion turns the power and water on or off. Any intelligent man can run it.
