and Shutters 



— and by Christmas you'll have 

 Flowers and Vegetables 



SUNLIGHT DOUBLE-GLASS SASH insure positive results- 

 no matter how severe the weather. They give the plants all the 

 light all the time and mature them earlier and stronger. You will 

 never realize how much pleasure winter gardening can give you, 

 unless you use Sunlight Double-Glass Sash, besides they will 

 double the efficiency and profits of gardening. 



Put the sash on your hot-bed or cold-frame 

 and it is complete. All that remains to do is 

 to prop up the sash on bright or warm days. 



Sunlight Greenhouses 



If you want to work indoors, get one of these 

 small, inexpensive Sunlight Greenhouses. 

 They are made entirely of cypress and glass, 

 are easily heated and can be operated at very 

 little expense. Sunlight Greenhouses come 

 ready to put up, and require no skill to erect. 



Write for Free Illustrated Catalogue 

 It explains everything in detail, contains price list 

 and gives valuable information on the use of hot- 

 beds, cold-frames and greenhouses. 



The Working Principle of Sunlight 

 Double-Glass Sash 



is based on two layers of glass which enclose 

 an air space of f of an inch — a transparent 

 blanket — through which the sun's rays pass 

 freely to the beds, carrying heat and light, 

 but through which the cold from without 

 and the stored heat from within pass very 

 slowly. Sunlight Double-Glass Sash are 

 complete in themselves and need no cover- 

 ing like ordinary sash. Mats and shutters 

 are eliminated, thereby saving you the most 

 expensive and burdensome "part of winter 

 gardening.

I In the October Landscape, notice the colors. | 



[ Color in nature (other than green) is a sign of j 



I death. The reddening tomato, the mellowing apple 1 



| foretells the end of its mission. Indeed, the flower I 



| in all its beauty is but gorgeous colored leaves, and 



| ends the sooner for its priceless possession. 

 | From San Francisco east, thousands are travel- 



| ling this month into the Berkshire Hills to see 



1 nature's grandest sweeps of colors. The j'ellow 



| trembling leaves of the poplars in the lowland: the 



| scarlet masses of maples on the hill sides inter- 



I mingled with the sober green of the pines, are " 



| there at their best. 



Plan now for the colors in your garden for next 



I fall. Is there not some group of trees upon the near- 



| by hill that could be seen from your study window, 



| if you pruned a little of the border planting?
