THREE USEFUL TOOLS FOR BULB PLANTING. 
No. 1- BARR*S SPECIAL BULB PLANTER (Regd. 36833S), specially designed for planting

been put in. A time must be chosen for planting when 
the ground has become softened after early autumn rains 
and not when in a hard and baked condition, as it is then 
impossible to use this or indeed any other tool with 
success. IJy the use of Harr’s Si’Fxiai, Bulb Plantkr
