The Illinois Self-Watering 

 Flower Boxes 



The Illinois Self-Watering Sys- 

 tem absolutely assures success with 

 plants, bulbs and ferns in the 

 home. This system is based on the 

 principle of subterranean irriga- 

 tion, a principle which is accepted 

 by agricultural authorities as most 

 conducive to the healthful growth 

 of plants. In our window boxes 

 and hanging baskets this method 

 b ingeniously adapted through the 

 use of sponges and a false bottom 

 (see diagram below). The correct 

 auantity of water is assured to the 

 delicate root fibres of ^e plants at 

 all times, the water being drawn 

 up slowly by means of capillary 

 attraction. Sapid and luxuriant 

 growth results. 



WE GUARANTEE 



Every Box, Pot or Basket WILL 

 NOT LEAK. Blooms will be larg- 

 er and foliage heavier than in any 

 surface-watered device. We will 

 replace any box that leaks or 

 wears out in any part within FIVE 

 YEARS of date of purchase. We 

 will refund the purchase price of 

 any box or pot not giving satisfac- 

 tion if returned within 60 days.
