THE GARDEN MAGAZINE 
July, 1915 
“A trade marked article MUST be good otherwise the trade name is its own undoing. 
Any man selling several grades of goods, trademarks the BEST grade — -for it is 
SUPERIOR QUALITY that he wants the public to remember.” 
This is the fifth year we have sold finest grade tulips, 
hyacinths, daffodils and other Holland bulbs in America under 
the Dutch Girl trademark. 
Why have this Dutch Girl trademark and the trade-name “Wakru” 
become the standard for highest quality bulbs throughout America? 
Because the Wakru Girl trademark is put only on packages containing 
the choicest bulbs of the largest growers of high-quality bulbs in Holland — 
Gt. van Waveren & Kruijff. 
Because experts grow these bulbs, experts select the big “mother” bulbs, 
full of vitality, and pack them under the Wakru Girl trademark. 
You are surer that Wakru Bulbs are true to name and color, you are surer of a larger quantity of bigger flowers — 
if you get Wakru Bulbs. Because they come right to your home in the original packages into which they are put 
by our Holland experts. 
Why take chances — why delay ordering — when these “insured-against-dissatisfaction” bulbs cost no more, if 
bought now direct from Holland?

An Attractive Fence That Defies Rust 
Consider beauty, permanence and protection when selecting a 
fence. Let it be strong and rigid and, above all, “Rust Proof.” 
fences alone meet these requirements. They are made to 
last and cannot be pulled apart. Patent clamped joints 
prevent wires from slipping or twisting out of position. 
The finished fabric is dipped into molten zinc, which covers 
every particle with a thick coating of rust- resisting metal. 
Excelsior Rust Proof Fences withstand the most severe 
weather conditions, and are 1 00% value in beauty, strength 
and service. Ask your hardware dealer for Excelsior Rust 
Proof Fences, Trellises, Trellis Arches, Bed Guards and 
Tree Guards. Write for beautifully illustrated Catalog B.
