Not Merely a Bird House, But "A Bird Homestead" 



It's the DODSON 



It's the Dodson Bird House which attracts and 

 wins the songbirds, and it's the same Dodson Bird 

 House to which the same little songsters return 

 every year. A close study of bird life has shown 

 Mr. Dodson that returning birds, seeking a nest- 

 ing-place, with uncanny accuracy insist on occupy- 

 ing the house they left in the fall, if it is there. 



The sturdy Dodson House is there — just as 

 strong, but more inviting from a winter's battling 

 of the elements, for it has aged and become a part 

 of the Nature surrounding. Constructed of thor- 



oughly seasoned Red Cedar, Oak, Cypress and 

 selected White Pine, nails and cleats coated to 

 resist rust, painted with strictly pure lead and oil, 

 its permanency is assured. 



Order Now 



The most charming and effective way to protect trees, shrubs 

 and flowers from insects is by our native songbird, and their 

 beauty and song insure a cheery environment. 



Mr. Dodson will supervise and stake out proper 

 location for his houses, insuring success, if transpor- 

 tation and expenses are provided.

Bloom All Slimmer 



Best of All the Easy Growing Free Bloomers 



They give you giant spikes of perfect flowers with wonderful colors in fascina- 

 ting profusion; often changing as each flower opens fully. 



We grow over one hundred acres of these bulbs and harvest many hundreds of 

 thousands, developing every year scores of new hybrid seedlings, which surprise 

 even our own trained men with their new types of giant blooms in novel colors. 



The long graceful spikes, carrying often twenty buds, may be cut as the first 

 lower flower opens; placed in water each successive bud develops a perfect 

 flower. Plantings each ten days from April to mid- June will provide flowers 

 from August to October.
