Self-Watering 

 Iron Hanging Pots 



Self- Watering Iron Window Boxes 



These are made of sheet iron, galvanized and finished on the outside in 

 green enamel. They are very durable, rust proof and positively will not leak. 



The crowning merit of these boxes, however, is the self-watering feature. 

 This is accomplished by a false bottom below which the water is contained, 

 it being poured in through a tube in the corner that projects from the rim to 

 the bottom. The false bottom has holes in it in which are inserted small 

 sponges. These absorb the water and it is drawn up by the Soil or Fibre 

 keeping it evenly moist for a week or more before the water requires re- 

 plenishing, thus the plants do not dry out from neglect and thrive and bloom 

 with unusual luxuriance. 



The ordinary hanging baskets 

 are usually an abomination when 

 it comes to watering them on 

 account of the drip, in conse- 

 quence they are often allowed to 

 "dry out" to the detriment of 

 the plants. The Self-Watering 

 Hanging Pots "never leak a 

 drop" and plants thrive in them 

 grown in either Soil or Fibre, do 

 not need water often. To water 

 the plants simply remove the 

 lower reservoir — a partial turn 

 will do it — fill it with water and 

 replace. The Soil or Fibre will 

 soon absorb the needed moisture 

 through a connecting sponge. 



Our prices do not include 

 chain. We will supply a solid brass chain for this purpose at 3c. 

 In ordering chain, measure the distance from point of suspension 

 you want the top of basket and order three times that amount.

Bird Houses, Bird Baths, Sparrow Traps, Etc. 



The great impulse given the attraction and protection of insect-eating 



birds, by various Societies, for man's benefit and enjoyment has caused 



us to issue "Henderson's Bird Booklet" (free to those interested), 



giving a list of the beneficial birds. How to coax them to nest and 



home in your garden or grounds — winter feeding, etc. — and in it 



we also illustrate and offer many suitable houses — low priced and elaborate 



for different birds. Bird baths and fountains, feeding houses, sparrow 



traps, squirrel houses, etc. The limited space at our disposal in this 



Catalogue only permits us to offer the following:
